I didn't think so. So we're back to your decision to interpret the data the way that serves your preference and reasonable people who disagree with you interpreting the data in a completely different way.
I'm sorry but I have absolutely no idea what you mean by this comment. I was merely stating that the legal codes in the state of Calif require things like background checks, waiting periods, safety classes, etc... to purchase many firearms, and that it is illegal to carry a loaded firearm or to purchase certain types of semi-auto rifles and high capacity magazines yet that we still have one of the highest death by firearms rates in the country. I have no problem with anyone agreeing or disagreeing with me on this, or any other subject, and have never said anyone who disagrees with my personal beliefs as "unreasonable". I happen to support gun laws and restrictions similair to those in Calif - as most of the long term posters here know - however I do not support the proposed semi-auto ban.
