    The Gun Control debate has gotten to the point where the focus must now be to conclusively expose the habitual & intentional fraudulent construction and design of these Bloomberg group funded statistical studies to yield their desired anti-gun conclusions. Biggest challenges are an ignorant general public with limited attention spans along with elected officials who are not much better. But listening to your testimony in Utah last week hammered this home. John, don’t know how best for you to go about it but I’m sure getting into the statistical weeds on this is now the only approach that has a chance to work with these elected officials. Your testimony needs to objectively validate your work and show the statistical fraud behind the others. Like your recent research and paper that debunked the Langford study.
