We've also seen statistics posted recently listing the number of handgun- related deaths per year in the U.S. and in various nations with handgun control laws. It would also be interesting to see the non-handgun-related homicide statistics for those same countries. Does anyone have them handy, or know where I can look them up? --- Prentiss Riddle ("Aprendiz de todo, maestro de nada.") --- {ihnp4,harvard,seismo,gatech,ctvax}!ut-sally!riddle
