FL News! Beware of Manipulated Gun Violence Studies

Ever wonder who is controlling the gun control narrative?  The narrative that flies in the face of common sense?  To a great extent, it seems that it's researchers who manipulate data in an effort to make a point that can't legitimately be made.     

If you want the facts, the article linked below contains a short 16 minute video that you must watch - if you care about gun ownership, the Second amendment and Freedom in America.  

If you see nothing else or read no other article on the gun issue, watch this video or read this article from Reason Magazine based on the Rand study: 

https://reason.com/video/2022/03/31/do-studies-show-gun-control-works-no/ 

It appears that fictitious studies, manipulated and designed to manufacture data to show pre-determined conclusions are the norm rather than the exception.
