The link below is a pretty decent report on the bogus data or spin put
on any gun study.

It's the typical BS from Don Kates.

The authors use the typical gunner lies.

They wrote about Kellerman: "Consider a 1993 New England Journal of
Medicine study that, according to press reports, "showed that keeping
a gun in the home nearly triples the likelihood that someone in the
household will be slain there." This claim cannot be verified because
Kellerman will not release the data."

Kellerman's data was released and is easy to find.

And easily refuted

Kates' assertion cannot be 'refuted' since it is false.

That fact whizzed right over your head.

.....


Unlike Kellerman, Kleck's award-winning study has been peer-reviewed."

Kellerman's studies were peer-reviewed.



A typical comment from a criminalogist about Kellerman:

" Date: Wed, 20 Oct 1999 12:09:16 -0600 From: Rick Lowe

Rick Lowe is in law enforcement and only has undergraduate degrees. He
is neither qualified nor trained to evaluate research.

......

You're mindlessly repeating another gunner lie.

Just cant handle the refutation of your whole mindset can you?

I'm fine, you're an idiot.

You just mindlessly parrot what other people have written and don't
even realize that what they wrote is false.

.....

Let's watch how you handle it since I just demonstrated that Kates
lied in the article.

Here's another one that you can't handle:
......

Wiebe, D. 2003. "Injury Prevention Homicide and suicide risks
associated with firearms in the home: A national case-control study,"
Annals of Emergency Medicine, 41:781-781.

http://www.locksley.com/6696/guns2.htm

There's nothing in there that refutes Wiebe's research.


At this point..you may well want to fold up your tent and move on to
more receptive pastures.

The 'receptive pastures' are right here. You're an easy target and
it's entertaining to make you look like a fool.
