How many gun murders in the USA

[IndyDave1776]

Because the actual rate is 36 per million, Dave, and does not really reduce down further than that without getting into fractions of people.

The way I figure it, if the leftists don't have to let the truth stand in the way of a bad law, why should I let the truth stand in the way of a good laugh?

Do you have any idea where to find a citation? Several people I know really need to see this.

i think the number is somewhere under 3.6ppl per 100,000. i was looking at numbers the other night, comparing us to the rest of the world. ill try and find it again.

"Wild Wild West" was 1:100,000. I don't let people use that reference anymore when discussing people carrying guns.

The data is from the FBI. Here is a link to their Uniform Crime Report for 2011. If you go to the header and select "Stats & Services" you'll find a ton of information.

Maybe someday people will actually blame the INTENT of the CRIMINAL rather then the tool he uses...
