A True Doomsday Prepper
Gee it really did not take a full fledged University Study to prove what almost every law abiding gun owner already knew. Oh, well those professors and grad students need to eat too. Enough with poking fun as the mentally handicapped (Liberal law makers). I will admit I did not find this study reported on any of the liberal new media, wonder why? Here is the article.
A UC Davis study examining the first ten years after California adopted universal background checks shows that those checks did not reduce homicides.
In other words, the very checks that the Democrat Party pushes on the national level — the checks that Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) describes as the gun control “north star” — already exist in California, and they did nothing to reduce homicides during the time frame studied.
Townhall reported that the study was conducted by UC Davis’s Violence Prevention Research Program (VPRP) and the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.
The study “found no net difference between firearm-related homicide rates before and during the 10 years after policy implementation.” Researchers admitted that the findings of their study “disagree with those of studies associating comprehensive background check policies with a reduction in firearm homicide and suicide in Connecticut, and an increase in firearm homicide and suicide after comprehensive background check repeal in Missouri.”
The study also looked at the impact of “misdemeanor violence prohibition policies,” which were put in place in 1991. They found firearm suicides to be “10.9 percent lower than expected” ten years later, but this was balanced out by the fact that non-firearm-related suicides fell by a similar percent. This would indicate something other firearms as the driving force behind the suicides.
