Seeing this claim that gun ownership among Black Americans is up 58%, but it was based on a survey of firearms retailers who were asked to subjectively estimate how much sales increased among different demographic groups by a firearms trade association. Not scientific @guardian. https://t.co/7FuHaXBRLh — PolitiTweet.org

There's some horseshoe theory on questions like "do vaccines block transmission?" —If you don't know much you probably assume they do —If you obsessively follow the science you know they *mostly* (though not 100%) do —But if you're somewhere in between you might think they don't — PolitiTweet.org

Here's the survey The Guardian cited. Basically a firearms association saying "yeah, gun sales are up!" from retailers who self-selected to respond to them. Gotta have a better BS detector than to frame a whole narrative around this. https://t.co/ftADBAaZSF — PolitiTweet.org
