Hill and his team looked at the National Opinion Research Center's General Social Survey, comprising data collected from 1973 to 2018. Data initially appeared to indicate a positive connection between gun ownership and happiness. But once researchers delved deeper and factored marital status into the analysis, they found that gun owners were more likely to be married than non-gun owners. Researchers concluded that it was not gun ownership but rather being married that was producing the group's happiness. |

What a worthless 'study'.
Why would such a distinction be important? |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
