International Violent Death Rate Table Discussion "Gun death" statistics are frequently cited, in the manner above, to strongly suggest that guns are the cause behind the high violent death rate in the U.S. As in the case of the Los Angeles Times article, no mention is made that over half of those violent deaths are suicides. The CNN article mentions gun homicides and gun suicides, but fails to show us the total violent death rate of other countries, not just gun deaths. For example, in Japan, where gun ownership is rare, its total suicide rate is higher than our total suicide rate.

Extractions: Washington, DC Nationally, the volume of crime reported to law enforcement in 2002 (estimated at 11.9 million offenses) increased by less than one-tenth of one percent when compared to the 2001 volume, the Federal Bureau of Investigation reported today. Five- and 10-year trend data showed that the 2002 estimated volume was 4.9 percent lower than the 1998 volume and 16.0 percent lower than the 1993 volume. The FBI's Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program released this information today in its annual publication, Crime in the United States, 2002. In 2002, more than 17,000 city, county, and state law enforcement agencies voluntarily provided data on serious crime: 4 violent crimes (murder and nonnegligent manslaughter, forcible rape, robbery, and aggravated assault) and 3 property crimes (burglary, larceny-theft, and motor vehicle theft) to the UCR Program. These agencies represented 93.4 percent of the total U.S. population as established by the U.S. Bureau of the Census. Violent Crime

Extractions: Crime in 2003: Where does Fairfield stand? Homicides, rapes are up, burglaries, theft robberies down By Kathleen L'Ecluse FAIRFIELD More people were killed, raped and assaulted in Fairfield in 2003 than any other year since 1998, although fewer people were robbed or burglarized, or had their cars stolen, according to crime statistics just released by the Fairfield Police Department. The number of Part 1 offenses - the most serious - stayed virtually the same in 2003 when compared to 2002. But violent crimes, where people attacked people, increased significantly in the year, rising 21 percent from 365 in 2002 to 442 in 2003. "It's the crimes of violence that are up," Councilwoman Marilyn Farley said, adding that joblessness and population growth contribute to the problem. "There's a whole raft of things going on. With this budget situation, if we get into a situation where the people most impacted are those least able to take care of themselves, I think you're going to see worse figures." Other crimes dropped, according to the statistics released Friday. The number of robberies in the city returned to pre-2002 levels, decreasing from 214 to 177. The number of arsons in Fairfield was the lowest in five years - 39 cases, a 27.8 percent drop compared to 2002.

Given the latest upward trend, some criminologists are advising the law enforcement community to concentrate on the few who do the most mayhem. They point out that just 5 percent of the criminal population commit 50 percent of all serious crimes. To achieve another dramatic reduction in crime rates, they say, target that 5 percent. Boston, Minneapolis, Indianapolis and a few other locales have adopted this promising tactic. The law enforcement community already knows who the 5 percent are those who are out on bail, those with warrants out for their arrest, those who are facing multiple charges, are on probation or parole, or are under investigation for even more crimes.

(Bill) Gorman) Newsgroups: talk.politics.guns Subject: CCW vs. crime rate - FBI stats Date: 18 Nov 1994 09:31:55 -0600 Original message CARRYING CONCEALED FIREARMS (CCW) STATISTICS Violent crime rates are highest overall in states with laws severely limiting or prohibiting the carrying of concealed firearms for self-defense. (FBI Uniform Crime Reports, 1992) - The total Violent Crime Rate is 26% higher in the restrictive states (798.3 per 100,000 pop.) than in the less restrictive states (631.6 per 100,000). - The Homicide Rate is 49% higher in the restrictive states (10.1 per 100,000) than in the states with less restrictive CCW laws (6.8 per 100,000). - The Robbery Rate is 58% higher in the restrictive states (289.7 per 100,000) than in the less restrictive states (183.1 per 100,000). - The Aggravated Assault Rate is 15% higher in the restrictive states (455.9 per 100,000) than in the less restrictive states (398.3 per 100,000). Using the most recent FBI data (1992), homicide trends in the 17 states with less restrictive CCW laws compare favorably against national trends, and almost all CCW permittees are law-abiding. - Since adopting CCW (1987), Florida's homicide rate has fallen 21% while the U.S. rate has risen 12%. From start-up 10/1/87 - 2/28/94 (over 6 yrs.) Florida issued 204,108 permits; only 17 (0.008%) were revoked because permittees later committed crimes (not necessarily violent) in which guns were present (not necessarily used). - Of 14,000 CCW licensees in Oregon, only 4 (0.03%) were convicted of the criminal (not necessarily violent) use or possession of a firearm. Americans use firearms for self-defense more than 2.1 million times annually. - By contrast, there are about 579,000 violent crimes committed annually with firearms of all types. Seventy percent of violent crimes are committed by 7% of criminals, including repeat offenders, many of whom the courts place on probation after conviction, and felons that are paroled before serving their full time behind bars. - Two-thirds of self-protective firearms uses are with handguns. - 99.9% of self-defense firearms uses do not result in fatal shootings of criminals, an important factor ignored in certain "studies" that are used to claim that guns are more often misused than used for self-protection. - Of incarcerated felons surveyed by the Department of Justice, 34% have been driven away, wounded, or captured by armed citizens; 40% have decided against committing crimes for fear their would-be victims were armed. OTHER CCW FACTS With adoption of CCW by Arizona, Tennessee and Wyoming in early 1994, 19 states have CCW laws requiring the issuance of permits to carry concealed firearms for self-defense to citizens who meet fair and reasonable state standards. Vermont, which ranks near the bottom in violent crime rates year-in and year-out, allows firearms to be carried concealed without a permit. In recent years NRA successfully fought for the adoption of favorable CCW laws now on the books in Florida (1987), Idaho (1990, amended 1991), Mississippi (1990), Montana (1991), and Oregon (1990). In recent legislative sessions, proposals for similar CCW laws have progressed in Alaska, Colorado, Missouri, Oklahoma and Texas. Anti-gun forces oppose CCW with a variety of arguments, ranging from deliberate misrepresentations of commonly available crime data to "studies" pretending to show that private ownership of firearms leads to death and injury rather than providing protection to the owner. 1. Firearms ownership opponents claim that "violent crime" went up in Florida since that state enacted CCW legislation in 1987, a misleading statement for multiple reasons: - Florida's homicide rate has declined 21% since adopting CCW in 1987. - No comparison of aggravated assault, robbery, and rape (99.3% of Florida violent crimes) beginning before 1988 is valid, according to the Florida Dept. of Law Enforcement. In 1988, Florida changed its method of compiling crime statistics. - In Florida, as in the U.S., more than 70% of violent crimes do not involve guns. Violent crime rates, therefore, don't necessarily reflect violent gun-related crime trends. According to the most recent FBI Uniform Crime Reports (1992), nationwide firearms were used in the four violent crimes that make up the total "Violent Crime" category, as follows: Aggravated Assault (58% of violent crimes) firearms used in 25%; Robbery (35% of violent crimes) firearms used in 41%; Rapes (6% of violent crimes) firearms used in an estimated 5%-10% (survey data); and Homicides (1% of violent crimes) firearms used in 68%. In Florida: Aggravated Assaults (64% of violent crimes) firearms used in 25%; Robberies (30% of violent crimes) firearms used in 37%; Rapes (4% of violent crimes) firearms used in an estimated 5%-10% (survey data); and Homicides (0.7% of violent crimes) firearms used in 61%. 2. Anti-gunners cite "studies" they claim show that firearms kept at home are "43 times more likely" to be used to kill family members than be used for self-defense. (Other "studies" claim different ratios.) The 43:1 claim, based upon a small-scale study of Kings County (Seattle) and Shelby County (Memphis), is a fraud, because it counts as self-defense gun uses only those cases in which criminals were killed in the defender's home. Approximately 99.9% of all defensive gun uses are not fatal shootings, however criminals are usually frightened off, held at bay, or non-fatally wounded. Also, many defensive firearms uses occur away from home. Further, suicides were counted as "family member killings" in the "study," elevating that number more than 500%. Unfortunately, some of these "studies" are funded with taxpayer dollars, through grants from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a division of the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services.

Extractions: Uniform Crime Reports The Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program was conceived in 1929 by the International Association of Chiefs of Police to meet a need for reliable, uniform crime statistics for the nation. In 1930, the FBI was tasked with collecting, publishing, and archiving those statistics. Today, several annual statistical publications, such as the comprehensive Crime in the United States , are produced from data provided by nearly 17,000 law enforcement agencies across the United States. Other annual publications, such as Hate Crime Statistics and Law Enforcement Officers Killed and Assaulted address specialized facets of crime such as hate crime or the murder and assaults of law enforcement officers respectively. Special studies, reports, and monographs prepared using data mined from the UCR's large database are published each year as well. In addition to these reports, information about the
