New Harvard Research Debunks the NRA’s Favorite Talking Points

Quote:

“Carrying a gun for self-defense makes you safer.” Or: “If only more ordinary citizens were armed, they could stop mass shootings.” As we’ve shown in our reporting, these arguments don’t stand up to scrutiny.

That can't be right. Baron said Harvard's really into the NRA's favourite talking points. He even posted a link.

You've posted Mother Jones. Now what's it to be?

Harvard or Mother?

I look at it as a socially responsible charity activity for my less fortunate, less clear-headed fellow Australians who may, despite all signs to the contrary, may be steered to redemption from their idiotic, misguided ways.

Take you, for example - what motivates you to spread all your gawdawful stupid, mad Foucauldian-Marxist shite that you spray around? What redemption for you from that hell?.

We're all fwiends here, old chap, but no. I don't have a telephone.

Have you considered calling Lifeline?

You may find it helps, dear boy. It can be so comforting to sit down and have a good old chinwag with someone who cares.

We're all here for you, you know.

You have a fetish for toddlers in distress, Bwian.

Weirdly perverted.

Generally speaking, when it comes to deciding who should be listened to, I look to a couple questions to guide my direction. First, “cui bo·no?”, or in English, “Who benefits?”. Second, “What’s their experience?”. Third, “What’s their successes?”. Fourth, “Ramifications of applying that advice?”. Fifth, “What’s their reputation?”.

And of course, what is their agenda?

Fact check agrees with their view as the NRA position is factually incorrect.

The NRA statement on guns make you safer is a pants on fire one.

It is a fact that a gun owner is very many times more likely to shoot him/her self, a family member or a friend than to ever be used in self defence.

Harvard Grin

Tell you what, you anti-gun wafflers

break into my home with your gun or knife or garden hoe

give me a gun

and watch you back out fast

either you back out or you're a colander

Creep up behind me in a park with your knife

Give me a gun and I live, you die

then put the gun (or not) in your hand when there you are, cleaning the inside of your vehicle in your driveway

and mad Wayne comes racing up behind you

he's going to take your car, your phone, your money and your six year old grandson

and he will

because mad Wayne's been on the turps and any mind-bending substance he's been able to get his hands on today. He has the strength of ten men and a big knife in his hands

what ya gonna do? Call the police?

no you're not because mad Wayne's already stuck his knife in you and your car's leaving your driveway. Mad Wayne has plans for your grand daughter, just as soon as he's spent your money on his fix

you die there bleeding out on your newly pressure cleaned driveway

moaning … 'I'm dying. My grand daughter's going to suffer before she's killed too. Gee I wish I'd had a gun …. '

or … you've shot mad Wayne and your grand daughter is safe

but that's right. You don't believe you should be able to defend yourself against madmen, do you

Ok. You're dead then. And so is your grand daughter
