johnston: I never said Lott and John Q Wilson were correct .. I said discredited by whom.

You came to lott's defense, then you posted mauser's 'review' which supported lott's 'more guns less crime' study.
Now you quibble that you didn't say lott was correct? well you sure gave the impression you thought he was, to most intelligent readers.

johnston: I actually lean towards the makes no difference.

From which direction are you leaning? pray tell, as if we didn't know.
