What is surprising is that a major newspaper let the truth about guns slip through. Gun related deaths and injuries, including accidents, have been dropping for about 25 years nationally even as gun ownership and concealed carry have become more common. Also, so called assault rifles account for a very small fraction of gun related homicides, somewhere between 1-3%. Far more people get stabbed to death every year than are killed with “assault weapons”. Most gun related deaths are suicides, not homicides and involve handguns, not rifles.

Facts really are stubborn things.
