Shot Spotter study reveals interesting outcome.

A study of counties that use shot spotter technology found no particular change in the number of homicides. However it revealed a 15% DECREASE in homicides in counties with permit to purchase firearms and a 21% INCREASE in homicides in counties with right to carry laws.

Once again it is proven that restrictions on who can buy guns saves lives and conversely loosening restrictions on who can have guns kills people.

It's the guns, period.

it's both people and the easy access to firearms, not just the guns themselves.
