Think of this as something like teaching a man to fish. Now you know
where
the data is, and how neatly they lay it out for you. The thing to do with
it
is to plunk it into Excel and let it draw a curve. If there's a kink in
the
curve soon after the CCW law was enacted, something happened. If there's
no
kink, it means that the CCW law had no effect.

Why would it? The focus is way too limited here. If you look at murders
that
is what you are looking at; a connection to CCW permits is a different
subject. One doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the other.

The focus is the one determined by the claim that Gunner cut-and-posted. It
said that homicides went down when the CCW law went into effect. That's what
all of the above was about.
