The Spin

Republican narrative

There's no proof that rises in homicides or suicides in the US are directly related to gun sales — but liberals apparently don't need it to push their agenda. Gun sales increase because of crime, not the other way around, and the sooner we understand this and tackle the underlying cause of violence, the safer America will become.

Democratic narrative

Gun lobbyists in the US continue to spew a series of common myths to undermine legitimate arguments for common-sense gun reforms like those seen in New York. To protect future generations, policymakers throughout America must reject these harmful myths and instead rely on implementing meaningful regulations.
