Libbies Won't Like This. New Study On Concealed Carry Laws


Dec 24, 2013, 11:40 AM

Using data for the period 1980 to 2009 and controlling for state and year fixed effects, the results of the present study suggest that states with restrictions on the carrying of concealed weapons had higher gun-related murder rates than other states. It was also found that assault weapons bans did not significantly affect murder rates at the state level. These results suggest that restrictive concealed weapons laws may cause an increase in gun-related murders at the state level. The results of this study are consistent with some prior research in this area, most notably Lott and Mustard (1997).

on this publication at $40 bucks a pop. I'd be interested in reading it myself.

I'd also be interested in finding out whether gun control laws in the US ever equate to fewer guns, per capita.

is there a study that correlates concealed weapon holders and small penors?

Did you read anything other than the abstract?


Dec 27, 2013, 2:38 PM

How did they evaluate confounders in the study. What were the confounders? Can you compare a state like Alabama (mostly rural) to a state like California with numerous densely populated urban cities?

that is not cool,

even if NYC has a lower per capita murder rate than Greenville SC, it is no excuse to introduce facts.
