Answer to Question 1

Not necessarily. It is quite possible that people who thought they were at risk (perhaps because they live in dangerous neighborhoods) were more likely to buy a gun for self-protection. This is an example of a case where correlation may not imply causation. There has been a good deal of research on this question. See, for example, a Harvard School of Public Health 2011 interview with David Hemenway (http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/news/features/review-guns-politics-hemenway).

Answer to Question 2

C
