For example, in Washington state, researchers found nine occasions when gun owners shot and killed an intruder – the stories often cited as proof that guns protect people. In the same period, guns in people’s homes were implicated in 12 accidental deaths and 41 homicides. The number of suicides? Three hundred and thirty-three. Guns harmed their owners nearly 50 times as often as they protected them. Regulations prevent businesses from selling us useless medicines and toxic food. Looks like gun owners need similar kinds of protection. |

TO REMEMBER |
| We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
