How long before Don Lemon fired? He's black, gay and a liberal but he's starting to act like an openminded thinker on a few issues lately:

CNN’s Don Lemon Rethinking Position On Guns After CDC Study

...
Rather than flatly speaking out against firearms, Lemon noted that a recent study has actually changed his views on guns. Citing the Center for Disease Control’sresearch that was released this summer, he implored listeners to consider that the results might also challenge their own perspective.

“It just might make you rethink your stance, your view, on the issue,” said Lemon. “It did for me. It’s making me rethink it.”

So, what, exactly did this apparently transformational study claim? Here are just a few of the bullet points, as assembled from Guns & Ammo Magazine:

1. Armed citizens are less likely to be injured by an attacker:

2. Defensive uses of guns are common:

3. Mass shootings and accidental firearm deaths account for a small fraction of gun-related deaths, and both are declining

You can find liberals on SI saying the exact opposite of the above CDC findings. I say they're science deniers!
