Still up to the same tricks. When it comes to peer reviewed studies highlighting the negative effects of gun ownership, you always question the methodology (which you hardly every actually understand) and complain about "anti-gun bias" in academia, professors from Harvard or JHopkins or Duke or Stanford can't be trusted, the peer review system is unreliable unless you personally get to look at all of the referee reports (which of course, are confidential, but I'm sure you knew that...).

But then, when it comes to "evidence" on your own side, you produce a graph from some uncredentialed blogger!


How's it going? I haven't posted in the gungeon since this group was formed -- finally a place where progressives who believe in the scientific method can discuss gun policy. But I still have fond memories of the gungeon battles...
