    I suspect about 40% of all gun homicides in the U.S. fall into that category. I can't give exact figures but I have done plenty of research into statistics about this in the past.

  7. kazenatsu replied to the thread A Hidden Employment Cost makes the US less competitive H.E.C.K..

  12. kazenatsu replied to the thread American man who travelled to Caribbean faces 12 years for bullets accidentally left in luggage.

    It's totally off-topic, but to be fair, the "notorious arms dealer" that you refer to, the evidence against him was rather questionable. His business partner testified against...
