I haven't seen anything. Please hyperlink the data you're talking
about. I want to see the ATF data that you talked about. The only
source for that 29% figure you quoted that I can see seems to be from
the book "Where We Stand."

I find it difficult to believe that you actually had a copy of the
book. In any case, I'm still waiting for a hyperlink to anything.
For the fourth time, it isn't on the web - I have paper copies (remember
those?) that I have had for years. I suggest you do likewise.

Some of us read things before the invention of the internet.

See the following:

165476.pdf (application/pdf Object)

USDOJ National Institute of Justice.

Summary report publish 1997 data for 1994
12 pages long easy read. :)

Key findings:
44 million adults owned guns All types. (25%0 of population)
64% of the above owned a handgun
Handgun ownership in the US is then ~16% (household data)

Joe

Actually the data is handguns per household. With approximately 2 adults
per household, this puts that at roughly double the ~16% individual
ownership, or right in the ~30% area.

QED.

William Clark


You presume facts not in evidence. You obviously did NOT read the study
material.

Do you really teach an Engineering course?

Joe

Oh, Jeez, another from the Karl Rove "smear whoever has data I don't
like" school". Please demonstrate how this extrapolation (not
presumption) is wide of the mark.

And you question MY competence?

Holy smoke!
