Kesten Green on Australia’s The Bolt Report about whether more guns mean less crime

Jun 30, 2017 | Featured

Kesten Green media appearance

Kesten Green, a senior fellow with the CPRC and researcher at the University of South Australia Business School, was on SKY News’ The Bold Report to discuss how gun ownership deters violent crime.  The discussion starts off with a recent news story from Australia where three robbers tried to steal a car but they ran away as soon as the female victim pulled out a gun.  It turns out that the woman was a police officer, but it still illustrated the point that guns deter criminals.   Kesten’s appearance was on a television, but we only have an audio of his appearance.

A partial video of the segment is available here.
