Wouldn't this be one of those "in spite of the guns" moments DUmmie? I mean here is a state with virtually no gun laws that has a very low gun crime stat. How does one explain that if it is in fact the guns causing the crime?
The primitives forget; there's a multitude of other factors that infuence the way a place is; in fact, there's probably an infinite number of factors that determine one single thing.
In this county, there's probably four or six firearms per capita.....but on the other hand, there's a lack of crime. Crime of any nature, abetted or not abetted with firearms.
It probably has something to do with social stability, respect for others and the law, moral values, &c., &c., &c.
The list can be endless as to why it is the way it is.
