Gun Control Just Facts

[Fishersjohn48]

The article is titled "Gun Control" but don't get your panties in a bunch until you read.

I stumbled across the following page today and thought it worthy of sharing with INGO. I can't vouch for the credibility of all the facts listed and some are slightly out of date but it contains a wealth of information stated in a non biased manner.

Here is a tid bit from the article to peak your interest. During the years in which the D.C. handgun ban and trigger lock law was in effect, the Washington, D.C. murder rate averaged 73% higher than it was at the outset of the law, while the U.S. murder rate averaged 11% lower.[37]

It's definitely not an exciting story line and has lot's of facts, charts and graphs. I like that they cited all their sources even though it does add a lot of foot notes to the article.

Oh yeah, it seems pretty well researched and supported.

Good reminder why it's so important to know where our politicians stand and vote accordingly. Pretty scary how close they are to getting their way.
