Crime stats

Zendo Deb tells us that only 6% of violent crime is committed with guns:

Even better, this 6% figure would make it difficult for them to demonize an object, a tool, and force them to look at root causes, and other solutions for violent crime.

Since firearms are used in most murders, I think that’s what anti-gunners will pimp.

One Response to “Crime stats”

  1. Guav Says:

    Playing Devil’s Advocate here … wouldn’t the anti gunners just note that “The report also said the use of firearms in crimes has declined substantially over the last 10 years … 6% down from 11% in 1993” and just say that it’s proof that Clinton’s gun control laws worked?

    But of course, over that same period, more and more CCW laws have been passed …. is it not possible that even more people have guns now? I’m not sure of the numbers, but if we can show that legal gun ownership hasn’t declined (has it increased) over that same period, then it would render that argument null and void.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
