29. Again,
there is an endless stream of "more guns = more crime" here on DU. Ten years of FBI crime reports show declining violent crime over the same period. As I have said before, guns are not made of meat, they do not rot away, they last generations so every single year since their inception there have been more guns than the previous year. All that being true, if you request I can show the last 10 years violent crime reports, the meme "more guns = more crime" is demonstrably false. I am not suggesting that more guns = less crime, I believe that numbers have little to no effect on violent crime statistics.
