    I don't think the amount of guns will have a significant effect on crime rates. It's a pretty argument, but I don't think it works in real life any more than more laws make people safe.

    Well I know less guns will reduce the number of crimes committed. They will however increase the crime rate for unarmed victims.

    Dr Lott would disagree ... and he makes the case quite well.
    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".
