@James85fletcher @MrAhmednurAli Dom TRY to keep up
THAT's the POINT
It's not clear at all when you look at one individual country like Japan
Although if you're capable of critical thinking you can glean some information even from that if you do your own research
For example even...

@James85fletcher @MrAhmednurAli For example even though Japan has the tightest gun laws they have the highest suicide rates
Which shoots down the gun-ban argument that cutting legal gun ownership will reduce suicides
But like the US that's a single data point & proves nothing...

@James85fletcher @MrAhmednurAli If things were so simple the gun-banners wouldn't find it so easy to blind the public with "science" & lies damned lies & statistics
For example Protestant cultures have higher suicide rates than Catholic
Gloomy Nordics higher than sunny Mediterranean...

@James85fletcher @MrAhmednurAli You clearly don't even know what critical thinking is never mind ever thought for yourself
And are just Trolling
Why are statistics on gun control irrelevant in a discussion on gun control
And why are they deceptive
Because you don't agree with them!🤦♂️

@James85fletcher @MrAhmednurAli And I've repeatedly said why "something" is ‘a good thing’
And "something" else is a bad thing
So more than maybe gun control isn’t a good thing
It's bad in the US because it's unconstitutional
It's bad because it DOESN'T reduce gun murders or crime😱

@James85fletcher @MrAhmednurAli Gun control is bad because it actually overall in general (yes surprise surprise with exceptions because this is the real word with variations & no two countries or cultures are the same ) seems to INCREASE gun murders gun crime ALL crime!

Sigh. I found it pretty frustrating.
Lots of data confirming the association with a range of indicators of disadvantage.
OK, useful.

What's missing?
Longitudinal analysis, qualitative insights and a narrative.
A basic question: why did serious youth violence get worse between 2012/13 and 2017/18?
Nothing.
