Interesting Gun Use data

interesting to-
We’ve had a massive decline in gun violence in the United States. Here’s why.
In 1993, there were seven homicides by firearm for every 100,000 Americans, according to a Pew Research Center analysis of data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. By 2013, that figure had fallen by nearly half, to 3.6 — a total of 11,208 firearm homicides. The number of victims of crimes involving guns that did not result in death (such as robberies) declined even more precipitously, from 725 per 100,000 people in 1993 to 175 in 2013…

This decline in gun violence is part of an overall decline in violent crime. According to the FBI’s data, the national rate of violent crime has decreased 49 percent since its apex in 1991. Even as a certain type of mass shooting is apparently becoming more frequent, America has become a much less violent place.

Could those be overlayed with a graph of concealed carry permit holders?
 
That would be very interesting. By going to the first linkmyou can see the map that shows the entire US and get an idea of gun free zones...

Incidents involving use of a gun geolocated and annotated as far as self defense, accident, Officer involved and others. Closest one to me was three miles,,,,,,,otherwise map was clear.

So long as they post factual data their political leanings don't matter. Just make sure they post factual data.
I know they had my zip code wrong.
