No, but it's strong evidence that gun control laws aren't a good way to reduce the murder rate.
Really? Could it because of deteriorating socio-economic conditions, the fact that black market guns are sold cheaply, and easier to get? Could it be because those guns are easier to acquire because the government has no controls? Etc? I think it is pretty superficial to look at it say that restrictions means more deaths, the reality is that an underground is formed, guns still form the basis of the crimes. So I don’t personally see a correlation.
Surprisingly, all evidence seems to indicate that no, people are not more likely to kill each other simply because they have guns.
Can I see this “evidence”? Are you telling me that people have the same mentality when they are holding a Colt, and a fist? I VERY highly doubt that.
Since, you know, decreasing gun ownership doesn't seem to decrease the murder rate.
Recorded gun ownership, that’s the irony.
