"Isn't it too bad the government has never conducted an actual
scientific study on how it affects a child's likelihood of
committing crimes if his parents buy him a gun?
"Um, actually ... they have.
"The study was conducted from 1993-1995 by the U.S. Department of
Justice's Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention.
Child psychologists tracked 4,000 boys and girls aged 6 to 15 in
Denver, Pittsburgh, and Rochester, N.Y. Their findings?
"Children who get guns from their parents don't commit gun crimes
(0 percent) while children who get guns illegally are quite
likely to do so (21 percent).
"Children who get guns from parents are less likely to commit any
kind of street crime (14 percent) than children who have no gun
in the house (24 percent) -- and are dramatically less likely to
do so than children who acquire an illegal gun (74 percent.)

"Children who get guns from parents are less likely to use banned
drugs (13 percent) than children who get illegal guns (41
percent.)
"Most strikingly, the study found: 'Boys who own legal firearms
have much lower rates of delinquency and drug use (than boys who
own illegal guns) and are even slightly less delinquent than
non-owners of guns.'
"This wouldn't have surprised anyone before the rise of the
modern welfare state. It used to be common knowledge that the
best way to get kids to act 'responsibly' was precisely to give
them some 'responsibility.' Why would we assume a child taught by
his parents to use a gun responsibly wouldn't also be more
responsible in his other behaviors?"

and 'conspiracy theory', with its many half-truths, misdirections and outright
frauds is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credeence to Holocaust denial and
