Magazine ban advocates' shaky grasp of mathematics and reality

We're not told what year this "alarming statistic" applies to, but the number of shooting deaths (over half of which are generally suicides--which could, presumably, be committed just as efficiently with any size magazine) has remained fairly steady for a number of years, at around 30,000. That means that Lautenberg's "27,000 guns" have been used, on average, in about 1.11 killings apiece. One wonders why he isn't pushing for a magazine capacity limit of one round. [More]
That's today's St. Louis Gun Rights Examiner. Please give it a look, and tell a friend.
