This article is a response to Yet Another Refutation of the More Guns, Less Crime Hypothesis—With Some Help From Moody and Marvell by Ian Ayres and John J. Donohue III (EJW, January 2009).
Response to this article by Ian Ayres and John J. Donohue III: More Guns, Less Crime Fails Again: The Latest Evidence from 1977–2006 (EJW, May 2009).
