There were over 21 million background checks in 2013 alone. It doesn’t take much to figure out what these statistics mean. In the Obama administration’s efforts to place restrictions on guns and ammo, they’ve only created a surge in demand.
The NRA tweeted, “Since ’91, Americans have acquired over 170 million new firearms and violent crimes have declined by 51%.”
This information squares with the findings of a Congressional Research Service (CRS) study covering the slightly shorter period of time from 1994 to 2009. For those years, CRS found that Americans purchased approximately 118 million firearms, and the 1993 “firearm-related murder and non-negligent homicide” rate of 6.6 per 100,000 fell to 3.6 per 100,000 by the year 2000. It eventually fell all the way to 3.2 per 100,000 in 2011.
There you have it. More guns equals less crime. With the attention the liberal media places on isolated incidents, few are paying any attention to the real issue of mental health. Perhaps these findings will open some eyes.
