Taking guns from law abiding vetted citizens will not stop the crime that plagues our streets. https://www.cmajopen.ca/content/10/2/E500#:~:text=Eight%20of%20these%20studies%20reported,for%20prevention%20of%20gun%20violence. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0091743521000554#:~:text=Regulatory%20approaches%20that%20decrease%20the,reduce%20overall%20suicide%20in%20Canada. https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0266579
