Same economy, demographics etc. Winnipeg Manitoba Canada, has very strict gun control laws, in 1995 there were 2 homicide, out of 11 total that were firearm related. Minneapolis-St Paul had 19 firearm related homicides. the data is the same for vancouver, bc and Seatle WA, Toronto On and Chicago, I could go on. The point being is that you can match these locations (in Canada and the US) on most different socio-economic factors, the difference in homicide rates for firearms is very plain, Canada has far less homicides by firearms than would be expected if gun control legislation did not work. > > larry > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=5 Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
