- 02:4802:48, 17 October 2021 diff hist −1,188 John Lott The WSJ review of Lott's book never refers to him as a gun control advocate. See https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB894668874691303500 Having a staunch gun control advocate such as David Frum call him a gun rights advocate is just Frum's way of dismissing Lott as a serious researcher. Before Lott's research provide any evidence he supported gun rights or that Lott makes 2A arguments. Tag: Reverted

- 20:2520:25, 14 June 2018 diff hist −204 John Lott Undid revision 845100188 by Snooganssnoogans (talk) Misleading. The NRC report looked at over 100 gun regulations and came to the same non-conclusion every single time. All they called for every time was more research. In fact, more support for RTC b/c on reg with a dissent from non-conclusion. Please explain your change. Tag: Undo
