Howard Nemerov’s Brillant Observation
Howard Nemerov recently made devastating use of the UN’s own gun data against the UN’s antigun arguments. He broke countries into quartiles based on firearms ownership per capita. He then compared per capita firearms ownership to their homicide rate.
The results are best demonstrated in a table and it wouldn’t be right for me to lift it from his piece. So here’s a link to his article. To summarize, the quartile with the most gun ownership has the lowest homicide rate and the quartile with the least gun ownership has the highest murder rate.
Needless to say we will never hear any thing about this in the media.
