Most of the research that has been done has by economists, sociologists, or criminologists. See “Firearms Research”, Scientific American, updated from 496 Nature 412-415 (2013). This is important. 12/17

W/nearly 40K deaths/year related to a specific thing, we should expect health-related studies. In 2017 approximately sixty percent (60%) of gun deaths were suicides (23,854). Any such studies have been blocked, effectively, by the NRA. 13/17

To trace guns, from burglaries & thefts of those guns, to subsequent gun deaths would be of help in focusing on how to prevent those deaths. A trace of gun deaths to purchases of guns at gun shows would be of value in closing gun purchase loopholes. 15/17

I am Mark Small, a GOP candidate for INCD5. I am proud to be progressive and in favor of gun control. The NRA takes lots of rubles from Russia. I approve of this blog. Hell, I wrote it. 17/17
