re: #7 goddamnedfrank

There’s obviously some wiggle room in that VPC tracked incidents involving “property crime” which is far more common than purely violent attacks like rape or murder. But even if we’re very generous and double the VPC numbers it still doesn’t get anywhere near the claim, or support a cost / benefit contention. The fact is that all those stolen guns end up in places they shouldn’t, and many of them end up adding to the other side of the equations.
