What are you trying to say with these?

Guns caused the drop in homicides?

I could just as easily claim the advent of Google caused them to drop or the invention of the modern video games! That was the starting era for the Doom series and Wolfenstein!
Clearly the violent crime rate has been dropping without a need for background checks on gun purchases. Why?

Clearly the violent crime rate has dropped significantly without implementing any onerous gun control. Why?

Clearly the "assault weapons" legislation had no impact because the trend was downward before, during and after it was implemented and went away. Why?

Perhaps if we knew more about the 'why' we would have a more focused and accurate, 'how' to deal with violent crime.

Personally, I vote for more Wolfenstein and Doom!.
