A Bunch Of Gun-Friendly Links

Via Reddit, this comment. I've only checked out a couple, and quickly, so I can't vouch for them:

http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-41822965Also you're more likely to die falling out of bed than in a mass public shooting. Here's the reason the US has so many firearm homicides.
• "Criminal gangs commit as much as 80 percent of the crime in many communities, according to law enforcement officials throughout the nation. Typical gang-related crimes include alien smuggling, armed robbery, assault, auto theft, drug trafficking, extortion, fraud, home invasions, identity theft, murder, and weapons trafficking."

• Armed citizens are less likely to be injured by an attacker
• Gun buyback/turn-in programs are “ineffective” in reducing crime
• Mass shootings and accidental firearm deaths account for a small fraction of gun-related deaths, and both are declining
• Defensive uses of guns are common stating: “defensive gun uses by victims are at least as common as offensive uses by criminals"
• Stolen guns and retail/gun show purchases account for very little crime
