I am appalled to see such ignorance posted here as "fact"! This is a 'post hoc' fallacy of the far Left, which is not supported by facts according to Guns & Ammo magazine: http://www.gunsandammomag.com/second_amendment/rk0405/

In contrast, the facts I have provided here on universal health care come from recognized, legitimate published sources, to which I have provided convenient links for verification.

BTW, Larry's statement was originally posted as a straight, unabashed proposition that stricter gun laws = lower gun homicide rates, without any caveats or reservations. It was only after I drew attention to this that he went back and carefully edited his 3rd paragraph to explain his way out of it! (and carefully X-ed out the "Mark as Edited" box!)
