Gotta be the trench coats tho

  1. I didn't miss your point, your point is just stupid. There's no reason to assume that there would be a 1 to 1 relationship between guns and mass shootings. The non-stupid point is that there's no other explanation for the abundance of mass shootings in America. We are not home to a plurality of the world's mentally ill, nor a plurality of single-parent homes, video games, school bullies or any other BS excuse gun-apologists try to use to explain why the United States is home to a plurality of the world's mass shootings.
  2. An r-value, and linear regression, are helpful for quantifying the relationship between gun ownership and gun violence. Neither is necessary to recognize that there is a clear relationship between the two.
