    Has anyone received one of these letters yet, or know of anyone who has?

    If they are dated August 7th, I would suspect they would be received today, the 10th, at the latest.

    My letter will be the one which states my app is on hold. I have yet to receive it though.

    This could prove to be interesting. I (and others) didn't specifically LIST a G&S reason, (other than the "self defense and all lawful purposes"), but did provide documentation showing substantial cash deposits and withdraws.

    Now then, if you read the letters, they suggest you provide documentation,...... What if you already have, but (as usual) it doesn't meet the arbitrarary and ever changing criteria.

    Seems that there is a possibility (based on the way the letter reads) that people who provided documentation could be denied, while others that did not will be left sitting tight.

    John Lott is high on the short list of well regarded academics who have strongly pro-firearms research.

    If two of the leading experts cn use different aproaches , disagree with each other's methodology , and still reach the sme conclusions, it makes our overall position more supported.

    Fascinating, but potentionally disastrous.

    Two super-heros of the pro-gun community at odds with one another. But both are still arriving together at the same conclusion. Brilliant if this was deliberately orchestrated to keep this issue in the media. I would love to see a Lott-man vs. Super-Gura debate. :)
    To the batcave, quick robin, bring some cryptonight!

    It creates discord in our community, and does not allow us to create a united front. It would be better if we could have the super heroes put their differences aside and be the Superfriends so we could fight evil.

    John Lott has performed a lot of research.

    When the SCOTUS incorporated the 2A, statistical and societal analysis is out the window in the courts now.

    Lott's research is still valid for the legislative fights that will occur in the future.

    Well yes , in a way it would be. Fine thing if everyone on *our side* all said exactly the same thing , and never disagreed. But it can be easily delt with with minimal spin.

    The *Problem* is that Md's gun control schemes are BOTH very Unconstitutional , and very Bad Public Policy .

    Gura is a legal scholar , with emphasis in Constitutional Law.

    Lott is a Social Economist with expertiese in Data Crunching and Analysis.

    Both of them re tops in their field , and only claim modest expertiese in the other's.

    Both aproaches show that Md is full of organic fertilizer. Both aproaches are useful to our cause. Certain arguments will carry more weight in various venues.

    Social Science may not apply at the court room level, but it does in the court of public opinion.

    One of Md's primary arguments is * Blood In the Streets * , so the more strongly we can refute , the better.

    Underneath the blimp, Md.
    They have good Biblical basis for their arguement, hard to beat.

    Ezekiel 28:23
    For I will send into her pestilence, and blood into her streets; and the wounded shall be judged in the midst of her by the sword upon her on every side; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
