While there were 1,515 homicides by knives or cutting instruments in 2018, there were 1,698 knife murders in 2017, 1,558 in 2016, and 1,525 in 2015. Five people were murdered by poison in 2018; four by explosives; 72 by fire; 78 by narcotics (homicides); nine by drowning; 70 by strangulation; and 90 by asphyxiation. Another 900 people were killed by other weapons or weapons not stated. According to a Pew research report, protection tops the list of reasons why gun owners have a gun
. Two-thirds of gun owners (67%) say this as a major reason why they own a firearm. The study also said that regardless of whether they live in an urban, suburban or rural area, Americans are much more likely to cite protection than other considerations as a major reason for owning a gun. Rifle such as the AR-15, which looks like some of the long guns you see in military or action movies, are usually set up to fire 223 Remington ammo or 5.56 mm NATO ammo. Gun control advocates and many Democratic politicians want to ban the AR-15. Hell, yes, we're going to take your AR-15, your AK-47, presidential contender Beta O'Rourke said during a debate. |
Poster Comment: Ye gods, what a nightmare to reformat these tables to post in an article. Every time I do it (using a very powerful programmable text editor with regular expression search-and-replace), I swear "never again". Which lasts until the next time I want to post such a table. OTOH, I have become far more expert in regexps as a result of this useless habit.
