The post you directed me to contained text quoted from a letter to the editor written by some third party, responding to another letter to the editor.
It stated, in part:
The contributor made the argument that because Nevadans are so heavily armed a massacre would be unlikely to happen here.
... Nevada is considered "the gun state" because we have more registered guns on a per capita basis than any state in the United States. We also have 26 gun deaths per 100,000 population, which makes Nevada one of the most violent places on Earth.
What you have there is someone responding to the "more guns = LESS crime" "case" by pointing out that it is has not been made.
So in sum, it's an opinion voiced by a stranger to this forum and that person did not say "more guns = more crime".
Anything else?
