3. Benchley, you left out some stuff...
Here is some stuff JoinTogether didn't want to list on their website..
from the original website at http://www.criminologyandpublicpolicy.com/policyflash/PolicyFlash.php

They find that the 1987 passage of Florida's RTC law appears to have had no statistically significant effect on violent crime.
Well then I guess this shows that people who qualify for Right To Carry should be allowed to carry. AFter all, if the streets were going to run with blood, there would be a significant effect on violent crime...right?

I like this alot:
They further speculate that the benefits of allowing potential victims to carry concealed handguns might be cancelled out by an increased number of potential criminals securing permits to carry concealed handguns of their own.

Only the anti RKBA people would pass speculation as research, and only their followers would accept speculation as fact.
