If the data does not support the argument that automatic firearms cause death by automatic firearms, are you saying that the only logical conclusion is that increasing automatic firearms prevents death by automatic firearms??
"a problem is so infinitesimally small"... tell that to the victims of firearms intended only for human carnage. Arguments about statistical significance can be made, but your bias shows through when you reference the importance of the problem, which should not be trivialized.
I hope that more experts, possibly holding different views from Mr Thurley, will also weigh in.
Canadians are not immune against the gun-craziness from the South. Any Canadian who wants to purchase a rapid-firing large-magazine gun should be required to provide a solid justification.
Folks, accidentally left comments open on this one. My bad. I'm locking them now.
