Facts and logic form a basis for honest discussion, and, over time, change minds. And eventually, change public policy.
While many today do not want to have an honest discussion about guns, I believe that there are lots of open-minded individuals who are interested in knowing the facts.
This thread is about accumulating facts that can be used in these discussions. Please summarize the facts, and provide a link with more information.
Here's an example:
John Lott wrote in the Wall Street Journal recently that permitted guns in the hands of average citizens in Brazil more than doubled under Bolsonaro since 2019, and since then, murders in Brazil have fallen 37%.
More guns DO appear to result in less murders, at least in Brazil.
