>>>>>Why don't you do that Christine. It would be very interesting to make the comparison. America before 1960, and America after 1960!
Start around 1900 Christine and go up to 1960. Give us the stats on just how many school aged children murdered or injured other school children Let's keep it that narrow, since school aged children is the issue. Also if it's not too much trouble check out the stats on how many children under the age of 18 murdered anyone at all. Of course keeping in mind that only those murdered with guns and/or rifles should be considered, legal or otherwise.<<<<<

It may be, pursuant to the doctrine of unintended consequences, that banning guns has paradoxically caused an increase in crime. Or, as you say, there may be no correlation. Or, maybe if someone did the research, a greater percentage of the population of school age children was murdered prior to the 1960's, and we just have it backwards.
