I wrote earlier about the CDC study that scared the NRA so badly they had to marshal their political dollars to get their Washington lackeys to shut down research on it.
But even the NRA's bribery can't shut down public research using publicly available data (at least without somehow invalidating the First Amendment).
This very concise study uses available data to point out in a very obvious way (maybe even Glen Beck would understand it, but I wouldn't hold out any hope for Sarah Palin) the fact that the gun environment/culture/tradition in the US is not healthy, and far outside the norms for other countries in the world.
As I have said before, there are no easy answers but it should be plain to anyone that the status quo as to guns in the US is completely unacceptable.
