For the Record

 Columbus Alive and writer Craig Calcaterra never responded to my documenting that they did not have the data they told readers they did on permitless carry-attributable homicide increases.

Neither did USA Today/Gannett Publications, which is par for the course:


I trust no one was actually expecting a retraction, correction, apology, or any semblance of journalistic integrity...?

John Lott analyzed the data for several years before and after Constitutional Carry was enacted in multiple states and concluded that there was a decrease in violence by several measures, but the amount of decrease was statistically insignificant.
