Yes, I do think the burden of proof is on those who claim such disparities wouldn't carry over to gun usage. Do you have reason to believe this beyond just dismissing the idea as self-evidently stupid?


Because statistics referencing the use of punishment in schools have nothing to do with gun violence. It's not even a logical leap. There's no correlative evidence that your studies would connect in any way to the use of firearms outside of your personal intuition.

And if you want to cite studies, we can reference the fact that police statistically are more likely to rough up a black criminal versus a white one, but less likely to shoot and kill a black criminal versus a white one. If you want to extrapolate based on actual gun data, there's no reason to think teachers would be lighting up black kids. You're just fear mongering and race baiting.
