John Lott Explained

The odd thing is that John Lott was a pariah a while back, but he has come back with a vengeance while the other guy who did this still tends bar since his academic career was trashed (well, he does teach).
But the really annoying part of all this is that US gun policy is not only based upon ignorance, it has been run on bullshit.
Sad.
