Harvard gun study concludes gun bans don?t reduce the murder rate
In fact, it appears, bans may actually see them increase.

i dont want to argue pro or against guns here - i would just like to say that i am really surprised that this study is supposed to be done by the Harvard university. Probably by their janitor.
They mention Germany as a country with significant gun ownership - yet in Germany your guns and ammunition have to be locked separately when at home, you cannot carry in public unless you get a license that is really hard to get (either you are in the security business or prove that your life is at risk) and to be able to shoot, you have to be in a club or be a hunter (again: with a license that takes months of studying and theoretical and practical tests)
seriously: if any "scientist" was involved in that study, he needs to be bitchslapped
And Luxembourg? Seriously? Luxembourg has 500k people, if 2 people are killed per year the rate is already higher than in all other European countries
that "study" is a joke...
but one of guys who wrote it has the last name "Mauser" - his family probably produces the guns, i wouldnt be surprised
