Experts Disagree on Effectiveness of Anti-Gun Tools

A recent discussion about gun policy, including the use of gun controls and the employment of tracing and ballistic imaging to investigate gun crime, underscored disagreements among researchers and gun rights advocates about what works to control firearms violence. A congressional staffer, speaking to the panel about upcoming legislative work, echoed the overall ambivalence by offering few predictions on how lawmakers will address the gun issue this year.

...that doesn't include off-the-books exports or imports.

That's a nice way of saying "black market"

1. Wow
I dunno what to say. Seems to be a fairly balanced story.

Maybe they have changed in the last couple of months since Thinktank/Zergling went through his stage of posting everything it published.

Usually 'Jointogether.org' spins things to be totally anti-gun, even if they have to make up facts to do so. But I guess since they did not actually write, or rewrite, this story that would explain it.
