Except in every country and most states where it has?
We don't have great gun statistics because the NRA stifled the CDC TWENTY years ago, mostly because they were terrified of how the truth about guns didn't fit their beloved narratives.
(Nothing quite like a lobby group shutting down a bipartisan study to disprove the fact that maybe they aren't invested too heavily in the truth and might possibly know what the study would find.)
But the patchwork of state, local, and other country's statistics we do have all say the same thing: "Yes, gun control can work. It does work. It will work. On a societal level, it will make a difference.”
I'm not saying that means we need to start banning them all tomorrow. But the narrative that it wouldn't work is demonstrably false.
Bullshit Rating: Retire this bullshit. It's making you look really, really foolish.
