New study from the UN on worldwide homicide. Chapter 3 deals with firearms. First, if you expect an objective assessment from the UN, forget it. They are obsessed with arms contol and don't believe there is a human right to self-defense. The chapter on firearms shows a naivete about inferring causation from correlation. (Naivete or propaganda--you be the judge) None of the data it cites meets serious scientific standards about showing causation. For more on this see Wikipedia.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Causation_and_correlation
