@LadyDragonfly True, but it forgets to mention the devistating effect this has had in violent acts, and rape cases. They replaced the death of a child or two and traded it for tens of thousands of rape and other victims... Not really a win IMO.
@freemo @LadyDragonfly I don't know how you can connect an event in 1996 (the pistol ban) with a graph where nothing special happens in 1996, and a slow upward trend persists from 1971 to about 2012, where it gets notably faster. That's 16 years after handguns were made illegal.

Actually you are right, i read the graph wrong. The rise was significantly later
