91 died from guns over MLK Weekend. The number is just the usual number, not unusual at all. The stories of sadness caused by the deaths are ever on the increase. A lot of, "I'm sorry" can be heard.
Many gun owners say they need their guns to be at hand and ready in case
of an intruder breaking in during the night. "You try to look at the
science," Hemenway, the Harvard professor, said at the gun violence
forum. "There's no evidence at all suggesting that having the gun that
you can get within two seconds matters more than the gun you can get
within 10 seconds. ... There is a huge amount of evidence that having an
unsecured gun leads to all sorts of death in the family."
