Gun Homicide Rate Down 49% Since 1993 Peak; Public Unaware

The sharp decline in the U.S. gun homicide rate, combined with a slower decrease in the gun suicide rate, means that gun suicides now account for six-in-ten firearms deaths, the highest share since at least 1981.

The firearm suicide rate (6.3 per 100,000 people) is higher than the firearm homicide rate and has come down less sharply. The number of gun suicide deaths (19,392 in 2010) outnumbered gun homicides, as has been true since at least 1981.

That's a remarkably ignorant thing to say. You would be a much more believable shill if you said things that weren't so ignorant.

The decline reflects an end to the crack wars in the early 90's and a decline in the number of families owning firearms
