Yes, they’ve done it again! Research dollars have been spent out there to “prove” the obvious. Children and adolescents were more likely to carry concealed firearms where 1. Community members ratings of neighborhoods rated unsafe for children, 2. neighborhood social disorder (how do you study that objectively), 3. Neighborhood physical disorder. This is earth shattering news! Thanks to Archives of Pediatrics and Adolexcent Medicine for going out and “proving” what any 12 year old child in a “bad neighborhood” could have told you for free. Still astounding what kind of “research” people are doing out there. Next I hope they study the likelihood of kids becoming fat if they consume more fast food. Oh, wait. They have already done that “research” too!
