While working on another case, I was notified of this document.
It was just released about 10 days ago.
Checking OCDO, I did not see any mention of it, so I thought I would provide the link:
http://www.bjs.gov/content/pub/pdf/fv9311.pdf
This document shows that there has been a 39% reduction in firearms homicides from 1993 to 2011.
Most people that I teach a gun safety course to, think that the rate has risen in the last 20 years.
Their assumptions are incorrect.
