President orders gun control study, which tells him he's all wet on gun control. Study buried.

Back in January, when the president was pushing gun control because the economy was great and everybody already had a job, Barry -- sorry, Barack -- ordered the Centers for Disease Control to perform a study on gun violence. I'm sure Barry thought it would support all of his positions on gun violence and give credence to his efforts to impose strict gun control measures. After all, Barry knows the truth, and the head of the CDC works for Barry, so the CDC damn well better provide evidence supporting Barry's version of the truth.

Yeah, not so much. Instead, as The New American reports, the study refuted pretty much every position Barry holds with respect to guns and gun violence and left Barry standing there with a slack jaw and his dick in his hand:

Obama had announced at the beginning of the year his push for three major gun control initiatives — universal background checks, a ban on “assault weapons,” and a ban on “high-capacity” magazines — to prevent future mass shootings, no doubt hoping that the CDC study would oblige him by providing evidence that additional gun control measures were justified to reduce gun violence. On the contrary, that study refuted nearly all the standard anti-gun narrative and instead supported many of the positions taken by gun ownership supporters.
For example, the majority of gun-related deaths between 2000 and 2010 were due to suicide and not criminal violence:
Between the years 2000-2010 firearm-related suicides significantly outnumbered homicides for all age groups, annually accounting for 61 percent of the more than 335,600 people who died from firearms related violence in the United States.

That's so weird. Reading the lamestream media, I thought that pretty much every gun death was a case of me killing you. Instead, it was me killing me -- something that stricter gun control, constitutional rights notwithstanding, is not going to stop. People who want to kill themselves, will.

Also in the study, which you would never know reading the lamestream media, is that defensive use of firearms is common. To hear the lamestreams tell it, buying a gun is virtually a death sentence: even if somebody breaks into your home, attempts to mug you or whatever, and you pull your trusty sidearm, that criminal will doubtless use his ninja skills to disarm you and kill you. Being armed damn sure won't help you in any way. Or, maybe it will:

In addition, defensive use of guns “is a common occurrence,” according to the study:
Almost all national survey estimates indicate that defensive gun uses by victims are at least as common as offensive uses by criminals, with estimates of annual uses ranging from about 500,000 to more than 3 million per year, in the context of about 300,000 violent crimes involving firearms in 2008.

Sounds to me like successful defensive use of firearms is more common -- a lot more common -- than violent crimes committed with firearms. But hey, it's just a study commissioned by the nation's biggest proponent of gun control, so you have to take that with a grain of salt. After all, finding that defensive gun uses are more common than gun crimes doesn't really support the gun-control narrative. Oh, wait, that's what Barry was hoping this study would do. Never mind.

Naturally, you won't hear a peep from the lamestreams about this study.  It doesn't support their gun-control narrative, so they won't talk about it. And you can be damn sure Barry won't talk about the study he ordered, because it makes him look like the moronic idealogue that he is, totally uninterested in actual facts.

Here's the actual study in PDF format, which makes it a little bit of a pain in the ass to read. But it is enlightening, and while I know Barry will never actually read it -- he already knows the truth and doesn't need some silly little study to give him actual facts -- but boy howdy would he be pissed to find out how much of what he knows is wrong. Except Barry would doubtless conclude that the study he ordered was itself wrong, as he is incapable of error.
