BobbyG2 Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 One question I had been wondering was what percentage of gun crime was done with illegally owned weapons? Here's what a google search found me: 80% of all gun crime in 1997 was done with illegally obtained weapons. 6% was undermined. Only 14% was done with legally obtained weapons http://www.policyalmanac.org/crime/archive/firearms_and_crime.shtml Less than 1% of firearms will ever be used in a commission of crime. FBI Uniform Crime Statistics 1994 90% of all violent crimes in the US did not involve firearms of any type Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, 1998 Here's something someone said that didn't have any reference, that I'm wondering is accurate: One study indicates that 'legal' guns are used 2.5 million times a year to properly and lawfully protect citizens. Also, someone posted that since it's introduction only one person with a concealed weapons permit has been arrested in a gun related crime. I've been searching and searching but can't find any newer statistics than those. Quote *New vehicle and system coming soon.* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LT.Smoke Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 Ya that is true N8... Im sure some of the liscense holders that fall into those stats committed crimes without actually knowing it.... Such as drawing on someone and catching a brandishing charge or something of that nature...

alaskanzx5 Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 Yeah, I kinda figured that. I saw a picture of this van the other day: But someone linked a photo to someone's response to it: Lol well lets do the math here, if 2191 peole are correctly using their guns a day and only 34 people arent how many people use their guns for murder a week and how many use them correctly a week? 238 people murdered a week and 15337 people correctly use their guns a week. well from that i see a gun ban going no where... i mean if nearly 2200 people a day are saved from the proper use of a gun per day compared to the 34 deaths a day then why would one even think a gun ban would work?
