Gun Facts – Online, Mobile, Anti-Agitprop The top guide to debunking gun control myths is now in your pocket
San Francisco, CA – December 13, 2013: Gun Facts, the de facto reference for debunking gun control propaganda has been reborn into a mobile-ready web site, just in time to combat the next wave of gun control intellectual abuse.
“We have escalated our efforts to drive the Brady Campaign bonkers,” said Guy Smith, editor of Gun Facts. “For 14 years we have been educating the public about gun control buncombe, much to Michael Bloomberg’s dismay. Now the gun control industry has to worry about facts being infinitely portable.” www.GunFacts.info
For over a decade, Gun Facts has been a freely available e-book (as well as a popular print book) that categorizes gun control topics, then lists lies told by gun control groups. All that content has now been placed online at a mobile-ready web site, putting facts at the fingertips of anyone with a smartphone or tablet computer.
“Gun control policy wonks have carried Gun Facts as a PDF file on their phones,” said Smith. “But now that smart phones are ubiquitous, it was time to change the format, let Google make finding the info easier, and put it on every iPhone and Android handset.”
For each piece of anti-gun agitprop, Gun Facts provides debunking data and over 530 detailed footnotes citing reliable, independent sources (criminologists, government studies, etc.). Anyone can now instantly look-up a gun control industry lie and find rock-solid data to discredit the misinformation.
“Dishonest politicians – like the ones recently removed in Colorado – are going to have it really rough now,” said Smith. “Every voter will have nearly two decades of research at their fingertips at every town hall meeting. Woe to the candidate who parrots gun control talking points in public when everyone can instantly refute their misinformation on the spot.”
In production for nearly 14 years, Gun Facts has earned a large following of people who use it daily to defeat gun control initiatives. The Gun Facts e-book – whose content is now online – has been downloaded into over 165 countries around the globe and has become the de facto reference for educated people who prefer honest gun control policy discussions.
“We pass information to sane and thoughtful people,” said Smith. “Gun Facts is for every man and woman fed-up with intellectual cads misleading the masses – that would be you Mister Bloomberg, Missus Brady and Ms. Robyn Thomas. This is why the Gun Facts e-book is downloaded over 58,000 times in slow months. The information is valuable and the price – free – is popular.”
Gun Facts covers topics ranging from “assault weapons” to concealed carry to gun control’s failure around the world. In every topic web page, Gun Facts lists each canard cast by the gun control industry. Voters can search the site (or the PDF book) to instantly find a lie and the facts that uncloak it.
“If Chuck Schumer or Josh Sugarmann thought I was slowing down, then they are thinking as poorly as they always do,” said Smith. “Some fights are eternal, so now Gun Facts will be updated in real-time and be more viral than ever.”

Suicides are a separate issue. If people cannot get guns, they substitute another method. Several studies show this.
