Conclusions

This study was the first to our knowledge to analyze the association between GVRO implementation and fatal and nonfatal firearm violence in California and to evaluate the association between risk-based firearm removal laws and firearm assault in any state. We did not find evidence for a county-level reduction in firearm assault or firearm self-harm following implementation of the law in San Diego. Given the relatively small number of GVROs issued during the study period and our small donor pool, these results should be taken as preliminary. They do not preclude the possibility of an individual-level benefit to respondents, and previous research indicates that such a benefit exists for those in danger of self-harm.4,5 Future research should prioritize studies of longer-term effects—which may be more pronounced as additional petitioner types are permitted and uptake increases—and studies at the individual level. Despite our null findings, the state of the evidence overall supports GVROs and related legislation as tools that may be useful in preventing firearm injury and death.

So yet another anti-gun funded "research" paper by JAMA that identifies that the law in question (commonly called a "red flag" law or Gun Violence Restraining Order) that infringes on the rights of a citizen by denying due process or confiscation of personal property (a gun) or denial of the purchase of said property, has either no effect at all or so minimal of an effect on the desired goal of reducing "gun violence that it is statistically insignificant, confirming that yet another liberal gun control scheme is useless. Seems to be a trend amongst this type of research. Six years of data were available but only 4 (2016 -2019) were used as the rates of self harm and homicide had been steadily declining during the control period of 2005-2015. No significant changes in the overall rates of either self harm or homicide were noted. Pretty sure the "Main Stream Media" will somehow be completely uninformed and shocked about the results and decline to print, broadcast or stream the negative information (negative to their cause) Further, just guessing, but it is doubtful that the powers that be are smart enough to realize this overreaching infringement on citizens rights is ineffective and rescind this feel good garbage. Seems to me a better choice to do something productive would be to actively prosecute straw man purchasers, use enhanced sentences for felons in possession or simply enforcing laws that go after criminals rather than attacking gun owners and destroying their constitutional rights.

Please note the date of the article (4-5-22) yet this is the first I have heard of this "research" (5-8-22). Clearly a non-supportive paper is not newsworthy to the liberal gun grabbers.

So! What we already knew is now backed up by scientific evidence gathered by the very people who have spewed countless claims to the contrary for years!!

 

NO!  We shouldn’t expect the complicit media to announce this to the general public!!
