סיכום מחקרי בנושא פשיעה בנשק חם
http://www.nap.edu/openbook.php?rec...=10881&page=102
לגבי שימוש בנשק להגנה אישית, נכתב:
This measurement problem has proved to be quite complex, with some estimates suggesting just over 100,000 defensive gun uses per year and others suggesting 2.5 million or more defensive gun uses per year.
כאשר הנתון הממעיט לא כולל בתוכו שימוש בנשק למנוע פשע (ז"א, האדם הוא לא קורבן אלא "שומרוני טוב") ולא כולל עבירות הסגת גבול, גניבה מעסק או הצתה.
באופן כללי מדובר בסקירה מאוד טובה של הנתונים ושל המחקרים השונים, כולל בעיות מתודולוגיות שלהן.

There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics
"After the uprising of the 17th of June the Secretary of the Writers Union had leaflets distributed in the Stalinallee
stating that the people had forfeited the confidence of the government and could win it back only by redoubled efforts.
Would it not be easier in that case for the government to dissolve the people and elect another?" -Bertolt Brecht
I remember very vividly, a few months after the famous pacifist resolution at the Oxford Union visiting Germany and having a talk with a prominent leader of the young Nazis. He was asking about this pacifist motion and I tried to explain it to him. There was an ugly gleam in his eye when he said, "The fact is that you English are soft". Then I realized that the world enemies of peace might be the pacifists - Robert Hamilton Bernays -
