How scientists radically reduced violence in America (no gun ban)

The overwhelming share of shootings in the US are from arguments. They aren’t from people committing a crime, or people murdering for revenge, they are from heated arguments, and in the moment of escalation, someone shoots someone else.

Wealthy areas have much less shootings, but even between neighborhoods with similar socio-demographics, there are some with high shootings and some with low shootings.

Experiments that involve cleaning up vacant lots in neighborhoods, and teaching men how to respond to provocation, have found drastic reductions in violence.

Military Pistols Don’t Actually Matter

Pistols have never determined who won a war. In WWI, they were less than .1% of kills and wounded. Modern, more compact rifles are more useful than pistols. Rifles have more range, accuracy, and can better punch through modern armor. For some troops, it may be better to carry more rifle ammo than a pistol. Modern pistols are like modern smartphones, there isn’t a huge difference between brands and the chance that one company’s pistol saves your life when another company’s would not, is low.

The Mysterious Gun Study That’s Advancing Gun Rights

The Supreme Court has used a doubtful gun study funded by a Second Amendment advocacy group to justify its decisions. The author has not published the study, has not shared the data, refuses to talk to anyone about it, refuses to testify in court about it, and one lawsuit dropped the reference to the study because he refused to testify. How the survey was represented was inaccurate compared to the actual survey questions.
