the pResident's very own study of gun problems reveals:
Between the years 2000-2010 firearm-related suicides significantly
outnumbered homicides for all age groups, annually accounting for 61
percent of the more than 335,600 people who died from firearms related
violence in the United States
....and....
The study said that “interventions,” such as background checks and
restrictions on firearms and increased penalties for illegal gun use,
showed “mixed” results, while “turn-in” programs “are ineffective” in
reducing crime. The study noted that most criminals obtained their guns
in the underground economy — from friends, family members, or gang
members — well outside any influence from gun controls on legitimate gun
owners.
Curses! Foiled again!!
