→New Infographic: a little more faith in my intentions would be nice... What have I done to deserve constant suspicion?
:Before I look at it, I'll just point out that the two main positions are that changes to the gun laws can stop crazy people from shooting up schools and theaters - and that we'd be better off committing crazy people to mental hospitals. Moreover, neither side in the [[firearms debate]] accepts the other side's interpretation of the data. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 22:54, 20 April 2013 (EDT)

:*I've looked at it, and it fails to mention shootings '''prevented''' by someone legally carrying a gun. It's not a mass murder if the bad guy is stopped before killing 3 or more people. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 22:57, 20 April 2013 (EDT)

That's why I put it here and directly into the article... Thanks. FYI, I wasn't trying to "fool a math teacher" or anyone else. As I clearly stated, I'm far from an expert on interpreting this sort of data, that is why I put it here so others could take a look at it. [[User:Fnarrow|Fnarrow]] 23:04, 20 April 2013 (EDT)
