Mayors Against Illegal Guns gets supposed list of shootings where guns were allowed all wrong

John Lott's Website: Mayors Against Illegal Guns gets supposed list of shootings where guns were allowed all wrong

Mayors Against Illegal Guns (MAIG) has put together a list of their own cases where they claim that more shootings have occurred where guns are allowed. The group's chairman, John Feinblatt, had a relatively long 255 letter in the Wall Street Journal publicizing this report. What should be very clear to anyone who has worked in this area is that you can't simply look at a few news stories to determine whether an attack has occurred in a gun-free zone. Indeed, as I have complained many times, the media virtually always refuses to mention whether the attack occurred in a gun-free zone (many of my op-eds have also made this point). For those who follow this blog, it should be fairly clear that others and I do a lot of work in obtaining information about different attacks. This includes calling the businesses or other facilities involved. ​

Yeah, figures they would. Good thing they are being called out on it.

Gun-free zones: those who hate guns should live in one and see how they like it. I know Bloomberg is not a gun-free zone, he has body guards with puppy killing assault weapons. It would be great if the elite armed their guards with kentucky rifles, that might be more acceptable in their own eyes.
