This report summarizes gun ownership statistics in the United States. It finds that there are approximately 300 million guns in the US, with about 1 gun per person. Around 32% of households own at least one gun. While gun ownership has declined slightly over the past 30 decades, the US still manufactures many guns and imports some while also exporting others. Around 32,000 people die from guns annually, with suicides making up around 60% of gun deaths and homicides around 30%. The impact of an outright ban on guns is difficult to determine given the feasibility challenges.

YES or NO to #GUNCONTROL
US citizens own over 300 million guns, roughly 9 out of 10 people own guns. While guns are used for protection, target shooting, and hunting, gun violence continues to plague the country with mass shootings occurring where guns are banned. There is debate around gun control as banning guns is seen as unconstitutional by some, but others argue reasonable controls could help address the ongoing gun violence and over 100,000 emergency room visits due to guns each year. Public opinion shows more support for increased gun control but disagreement on solutions to curb the violence remains.
Gun Violence and Gun Control in America
This document examines Obama's views on gun control and gun violence in America. It discusses Obama's support for stricter gun laws and bans throughout his political career. The document also analyzes statistics on gun violence and the effects of concealed carry laws and assault weapons bans, finding no definitive evidence that stricter laws reduce violence. Homicide rates were lower in Houston, which has concealed carry, compared to Chicago, which has banned guns. In conclusion, while gun violence has declined since 2008, the causes are unclear and research does not provide a conclusive answer on the impact of gun control laws.
Gun control presentation
The document discusses the issue of gun control in the United States and argues that stricter gun control policies could help reduce gun violence and murders. It proposes a school program that would educate students about the dangers of guns through presentations from police officers, military members, victims of gun violence, and former gun criminals. The goal would be to increase awareness of gun control issues and encourage support for further restrictions on gun access.
Gun Control
This document discusses gun control and proposes solutions to curb gun violence in the US. It begins by defining gun control and presenting statistics on gun deaths, showing that over 12,000 people are killed annually and rates have increased in recent decades. The document then examines the lack of requirements for gun purchases and identifies minorities and communities as being most harmed by this. It proposes three solutions: mandatory mental health screenings, tighter background checks, and providing training and licensing for gun owners. The best solution, it argues, is regular training to promote responsible ownership rather than strict regulations alone.
Gun Control
This document summarizes the history of gun control laws in the United States from the 19th century to present day. It discusses early state regulations and key federal laws such as the National Firearms Act of 1934, Gun Control Act of 1968, and Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act of 1993. The author predicts that loopholes in current laws, like the "gun show loophole," will be closed by 2013 but that the gun control debate will continue for decades.
Gun control
The document discusses the ongoing debate around gun control in America. It references several mass shootings over the past 15 years and notes how gun control is debated after each one. However, it argues that less gun legislation is needed and that guns themselves are not to blame - it is the person behind the trigger. It cites evidence from studies that found no link between strict gun laws and lower murder/crime rates. Overall the document makes the case that controlling violent individuals is more important than controlling guns, and that banning guns would not solve violence since people will find other weapons.
Analysis of articles
The document provides an analysis of three articles that discuss the gun control debate from different perspectives. The underlying issue debated in the articles is whether gun control legislation in the U.S. should be strengthened or remain as is. Supporters of stricter laws argue it could reduce gun violence and deaths, citing statistics like 30,000 annual gun deaths, while opponents counter that it would infringe on Second Amendment rights and criminals could still obtain guns illegally. The document also examines fallacies in arguments from both sides and discusses alternative policies that have been proposed regarding background checks and assault weapon bans.

This document summarizes a student's paper on the gun control debate. It outlines the key issues debated in readings on the topic, including the interpretation of the 2nd Amendment and whether stricter gun laws could reduce gun violence.

Supporters of stricter laws argue it may decrease mass shootings and violence, while opponents argue it could violate gun rights and impact hunters. Alternative policies like improved background checks are discussed.

Debate paper gun control
The document summarizes the key points of debate around gun control legislation.

Supporters argue stricter laws could reduce gun violence based on statistics from other countries with strict laws and background checks could respect gun rights. Opponents counter that statistics don't prove regulation reduces crime and that additional laws could infringe on constitutional rights. Alternative policies proposed include assault weapons bans and background checks. The implications for families and society are also debated.

2) Concealed carry laws are associated with lower crime rates - the 31 states with shall issue laws have 24% lower violent crime, 19% lower murder, and 39% lower robbery rates than states that restrict concealed carry.
3) After adopting concealed carry in 1987, Florida saw declines in homicide rates of 36%, firearm homicide rates of 37%, and handgun homicide rates of 41%.
Anti gun control paper josh hughes

In the end, the student concludes there should be no restrictions on guns or ammunition based on statistics showing declines in gun violence and murders committed with guns in recent years.
Gun control Rogerian Argument
The document discusses differing views on gun control. Those who want stricter laws believe it could reduce mass killings and firearm deaths. However, others argue that the Second Amendment protects their right to own guns for self-defense. Both sides want public safety but disagree on the best approach. The author proposes keeping most gun laws the same but increasing restrictions on assault weapons through longer waiting periods and background checks.

Gun control
This document discusses the ongoing debate around gun control in the United States. It outlines arguments from both sides of the issue. Gun control advocates argue that stricter laws are needed to reduce gun violence, citing statistics showing the US has much higher rates of gun deaths than other developed nations with tighter restrictions. Gun rights supporters counter that the Second Amendment guarantees their right to gun ownership for self-defense and as a check against tyranny. They believe more guns do not necessarily lead to more crime and that most gun deaths are due to irresponsible individuals rather than responsible gun owners. The debate continues with no clear consensus on how to balance these perspectives.
Gun Control
The document discusses perspectives on gun control from both pro-gun and anti-gun positions. Pro-gun arguments include that the second amendment protects gun ownership as an individual right, and that gun control laws infringe on self-defense rights. Anti-gun arguments are that common sense restrictions like background checks have broad public support, and countries with stricter gun laws have lower gun death rates than the U.S. The document also provides statistics on U.S. firearm deaths and defensive gun uses.
Gun Control
Alexandra Fiore's research topic is gun control. She will focus on current US gun regulations, the NRA, and mass shootings. She wants to investigate changes being made to prevent more shootings. The issue of mass shootings and gun violence has risen for years since JFK's assassination brought awareness to lack of firearm control. Individuals involved in the gun control debate include David Hogg, Oliver North, and Nancy Pelosi. Fiore disagrees that America is too divided to enact gun control changes, believing lives lost outweigh political differences.
Gun+control+presentation
The document discusses arguments for and against gun control. It presents statistics showing that more guns lead to more violent crime and deaths, especially of children. While the 2nd Amendment protects gun rights, the team argues that regulations like background checks, trigger locks, and gun education can help reduce crime and accidents without banning guns altogether. In the end, they conclude that citizens have the right to bear arms, but that right should be balanced with reasonable restrictions.
Gun control
The document discusses arguments around gun control legislation. Issues debated include the appropriate level of gun regulation and the effectiveness of laws in reducing crime. Supporters argue stricter laws could lower violence and accidental shootings. Opponents counter that statistics don't prove regulation reduces crime, and guns are simply tools, not the root cause of violence. Alternative policies proposed include increasing background checks and restricting certain firearms. The author ultimately believes stricter legislation is needed to reduce gun deaths and incidents like the Sandy Hook shooting.

This document discusses gun deaths and gun control policy in the United States by analyzing statistics on causes of death, gun ownership, and homicides. It finds that while gun homicides receive much media attention, they account for less than 1% of total deaths in the US. Many other preventable causes of death like obesity, smoking and traffic accidents kill far more people each year.

The document questions whether limiting access to guns is the most effective way to reduce homicides and suggests addressing root causes like education, the economy, and mental health.
Guns
The document argues that banning firearms will do more harm than good for several reasons:
1) Approximately 2.5 million Americans legally use guns each year to protect their families and livelihoods, and about 500,000 have used guns to save lives. For every gun death, 71 lives are protected and 14 lives are saved.
2) Criminals who break the law will still obtain guns illegally. Studies show that 55% of arrestees say they can get guns illegally and juveniles and adults can easily obtain illegal guns.
3) Countries that have recently strengthened gun laws have seen increases in violent crime, like a 40% rise in gun crime in the UK and a 51% rise in armed rob

Module 9 project gun control
The document discusses gun control and statistics related to gun violence in the United States. It states that gun control aims to regulate the sale and use of rifles and handguns in response to high rates of gun deaths and injuries. Over time, data shows that for every person killed by a gunshot, two others are wounded. As a result of these statistics, communities and states are considering stricter laws around mandatory gun safety classes, more thorough background checks for those with mental illnesses or criminal histories, and longer waiting periods for gun purchases.
Module 9 project
The document discusses gun control and statistics related to gun violence in the United States. It states that gun control aims to regulate the sale and use of rifles and handguns in response to high rates of gun deaths and injuries. Each year over 30,000 Americans are killed by guns, and for every death there are two non-fatal gunshot wounds. Communities and states are considering stricter laws around mandatory safety classes, more thorough background checks of those with mental illnesses or criminal histories, and longer waiting periods for gun purchases.
The misuse of guns and not enough laws
The document discusses several issues related to gun control in the United States. It notes that over 500 children die annually from accidental gunshots. While the Second Amendment protects gun ownership rights, easy access to guns contributes to 30,000 gun deaths per year in the US. The author argues that civilian gun ownership should be abolished and background checks should be required for all gun sales to help address the problems of gun violence and illegal gun trafficking. The document suggests ways for people and lawmakers to help strengthen gun control laws and reduce gun deaths.
Gun control psa
Each year in the US, gun deaths total between 30,000 to 40,000 people, with homicides and suicides making up most of the toll. Homicide rates have remained constant while deaths from auto accidents have declined. Over 200 million guns are in circulation in the US despite only around 30% of adults owning guns, as gun owners now own multiple firearms on average. State gun laws vary considerably regarding licensing, permits, and waiting periods. The rise of school shootings and crimes with semi-automatic weapons are fueling the push for stricter nationwide gun control legislation.
Guns
This document summarizes statistics and perspectives on gun ownership and gun violence in the United States. It finds that while the percentage of Americans who own guns has remained steady, the total number of guns has increased due to some gun owners possessing more guns. Most gun deaths are suicides and homicides, with homicide rates highest among young black males. Proposed policies to reduce gun violence include restrictions on certain weapons, background checks, and public education programs, but there is disagreement on balancing civil liberties with public health and safety.
Gun control research
Gun control is a highly controversial issue in American politics with ongoing debate about its impact on violent crime. Research has produced mixed results, with some studies finding that stricter gun laws reduce violent crime and others finding no impact. Proponents of gun rights believe the Second Amendment guarantees individual gun ownership rights, while advocates of gun control see it as a collective right. Obtaining guns illegally remains a problem, as many criminals acquire firearms through means such as straw purchases or theft despite existing laws. The impact of gun control measures on curbing gun violence remains unclear based on conflicting research findings.
Dean r berry pro and con gun control
The document discusses arguments for and against enacting more gun control laws in the United States. It begins by providing background information on gun ownership rates in the U.S. and the Second Amendment. It then outlines the key considerations in the debate, such as the impact of gun control laws on violence in other countries, the effect on lawful gun owners' rights, and the types of weapons citizens should be allowed to purchase. The document aims to guide students in evaluating both sides of the issue by considering the reliability of research, the use of logic and facts, and determining which arguments are best supported by evidence.
Gun Control Essay
This document summarizes arguments for and against gun control. It discusses how guns have been used for hunting, sports, self-defense, law enforcement and the military. However, guns are also associated with shootings and violence. The document examines statistics on gun ownership and usage for self-defense in the U.S. It also discusses the debate around the second amendment and whether stricter gun control laws could help address issues of gun violence.
The Strange Case of Gun Deaths in America
The document analyzes gun death data from 2012-2014 and finds that:
- More people die daily from gun suicides (58) than gun homicides (32)
- The most common victims of gun homicides are black males aged 18-34, while the most common victims of gun suicides are white males aged 45 and older.
- While stricter gun laws may help reduce gun deaths, they do not address the underlying human motivations for homicide and suicide and will not end these acts, as other methods will be used if guns are unavailable. Addressing socioeconomic, psychological, and institutional factors is also important.

20141208 BH Report: US Patents
1) The number of patents granted each year in the US has been exponentially increasing over the past 150 years, with foreign applicants now receiving over half of US patents, led by companies from East Asia.
2) Top patent-receiving industries have shifted from chemicals and machinery in the 1970s to pharmaceuticals and computer/IT technologies today.
3) While many areas of innovation were dominated by large US and European companies in the past, the rankings are now led by international technology companies like IBM, Samsung, and Canon.
20141128 BH Report: Broadway
Broadway has experienced strong growth driven by increasing ticket prices over the past 30 years. While attendance has remained flat for 15 years, prices have doubled and quadrupled over 15 and 30 years respectively. Tony award nominations provide a boost to ticket sales for nominated shows. Shows typically close when gross revenue falls below 50% of potential. Of the top five longest running shows, The Lion King and Wicked appear safe with over 90% revenue, while Chicago and Phantom have shown signs of weakness near 50%, putting them at risk of closing in the next few years. Mamma Mia! has hovered around 60% revenue for five years, making it the highest risk of closing among the top five.
20141126 BH Report: Turkey (poultry)
- Benjamin Franklin preferred the turkey over the bald eagle as the national symbol of the United States, finding the turkey to be a more respectable bird native to America.
- Global turkey consumption has remained relatively flat over the last 10 years, while the United States is the largest producer, consumer, and exporter of turkey in the world.
- Turkey consumption per capita is about 10 times higher in the United States than the global average, though chicken, beef, and pork are still more significant parts of the American diet.
20141125 BH Report: Crumbs Bake Shop
Crumbs Bake Shop was founded in 2003 and became the largest cupcake chain in the US, experiencing rapid growth until going public in 2011. After its IPO, the company struggled with slower-than-expected store growth and declining sales per store. This resulted in increased costs and decreased profit margins, ultimately leading Crumbs to declare bankruptcy in 2014. However, an investment group including Marcus Lemonis acquired Crumbs assets and began reopening stores later that year in an effort to revitalize the brand.
20141125 BH Report: US Top Singles
This document analyzes Billboard #1 singles from 1940 to 2014 to understand trends over time. Some key findings include:
- 75% of artists who achieved a #1 single were "one-hit wonders" who only had one #1 hit.
- The top artists who spent the most weeks at #1 or had the most #1 singles were Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and Mariah Carey.
- The defining artists of each decade changed constantly, such as Bing Crosby in the 1940s and Bruno Mars in 2010-2014.
- Only 8 artists have had #1 hits spanning three or more decades, including Madonna, Michael Jackson, and Janet Jackson.
20141125 BH Report: World Cup

- Attendance has doubled in the last 50 years to over 3 million total attendees in 2014, while attendance per match has remained stable at around 50,000.
- The average number of goals per match has decreased from over 3 in the 1930s-50s to a stable average of around 2.5 for the last 50 years.
- Germany has the highest number of registered soccer players as a percentage of its population and generally the stronger national teams have more registered players, though
20141124 BH Report: Diamond Engagement Rings
- Diamond engagement rings have become a common tradition, largely due to marketing efforts since the mid-20th century. The percentage of brides receiving diamond rings has increased from 30% in the 1940s to over 90% today.
- There is wide variation in how much people spend on engagement rings, ranging from under $500 to over $10,000, depending on household income. Stone size also varies significantly, with most rings containing stones between 0.5 and 2 carats.
- While most brides do not shop for rings with the groom, about 4 in 5 provide some guidance on their preferences. The retail market is fragmented, with about half of rings purchased from local jewelers rather than national chains.
20131223 BH Report: Us Perceived Moral Acceptability
- The document analyzes data from the General Social Survey (GSS) from 1972-2012 to examine trends in US public opinion on the perceived moral acceptability of various topics.
- Key topics analyzed include premarital sex, spanking children, doctor-assisted suicide, the death penalty, gay relations, abortion, and extramarital sex. For each topic, the document looks at historical trends, demographic differences, and levels of controversy.
- In general, acceptance has increased over time for topics like premarital sex, gay relations, and doctor-assisted suicide, while views on issues like abortion and the death penalty have remained stable or seen more modest changes. Younger generations also tend to hold

The document analyzes the rate of adoption of various innovations over time. It finds that the rate of adoption has accelerated, with products now able to reach scales of 10 million and 100 million users within 2 and 5 years respectively, compared to over 5 years historically. Examples discussed include the Ford Model T, television, computers, the internet, smartphones, Facebook, YouTube, tablets and Twitter. While comparisons have caveats, the analysis provides an interesting perspective on the increasing speed at which innovative products gain widespread usage.
20131130 BH Report: Disney Animated Features
There are 52 full-length Disney animated feature films produced to date. The document discusses the commercial and critical success of the films, finding that the "Disney Renaissance" period of 1989-1999, which included films like The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, and The Lion King, represented the peak for both popularity and box office returns. While more recent films have performed well critically, most have only earned 1-2 times their production budgets at the box office. The Lion King remains the most commercially successful Disney animated film ever.
20130603 BH Report: Japanese Government Debt
- Japan has a lot of government debt totaling 1.1 quadrillion JPY (about 85% is Japanese Government Bonds), with debt to GDP ratio at around 240% which is high compared to other developed countries.
- The debt accumulated starting in the early 1990s after the economic bubble burst as tax revenues declined while government spending increased.
- Domestic financial institutions, including banks and insurance companies, hold about 66% of JGBs, while foreign investors only hold around 10%, differentiating Japan from countries heavily reliant on foreign investors.
20131001 BH Report: US Higher Education Comps
The document summarizes key metrics for over 2,300 US higher education institutions using publicly available data. It finds that while the top 100 schools receive a disproportionate share of applications, they only account for around 12% of total enrollments. Admission rates are lowest at top schools and graduation rates are highest. Test scores and tuition costs do not differ dramatically between top-ranked and other institutions. Overall, the US higher education system is large and diverse, with the vast majority of students attending schools outside the most elite 100.
20130908 BH Report: Scotch Whisky
- Scotch whisky production and stock have generally been increasing over the past 20-30 years, with around 1.8 billion bottles produced annually.
- Export accounts for around 93% of Scotch consumption as UK domestic consumption has declined, but export growth has offset this. The US and France are the two largest importers.
- In the US, Scotch sales volumes have remained flat but price increases have driven market growth over the past decade, fueled by consumers trading up to more premium and single malt whiskies.

20140611 BH Report: Guns in the US
- 1. BH Report: Guns in the US 2014/6/11
- 2. Context I grew up in a country where we are not allowed to own guns, and now I live in a country where it is relatively easy for anyone to buy guns (in fact, it is constitutional rights). Although I'm not opposed to the idea of tighter gun control, I've also known responsible people whose hobby was shooting & so I'm not really a believer of complete ban on guns. In this report, I tried to explore the following: •How wide spread is the gun ownership in the US ? •What has been the trend ? •How many people actually die from guns ? •What would be the impact on gun homicides if guns are banned?
- 3. How many guns are there in the US? •There are roughly 300 million guns in the US including both legally owned & illegally owned guns (i.e., roughly 1 gun per person) •99% of the guns are owned privately vs. 1% owned by military / law enforcement •# of guns relatively evenly distributed across three categories: Handguns (~37%), Rifles (~35%), Shotguns (~28%) We will focus on the statistics of privately owned guns in this report Source: U.S. Department of Justice, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives; GunPolicy..org
- 4. What % of households own guns? 32 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 1980 1990 2000 2010 Year % of US household with one or more guns (by type) Any type of guns Rifles Shotguns Handguns Source: U.S. Department of Justice, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives; GunPolicy..org • Roughly 1/3rd of the households own one or more gun I.e., ~37 million households... • ... implying that each household owns 8 guns on average – This sounds incredibly high, but not entirely unbelievable considering that the statistics includes illegally owned guns • Gun ownership has declined over the course of the last 30 years, but the change has been minimal for handguns (25% -> 20%)
- 5. Is US major exporter or importer of guns? 0.2 3.3 5.5 0 2 4 6 Million Manufactured Imported Exported in the US # of units (2010) Value (2010) 844 1,391 0 500 1,000 1,500 $ million n/a Manufactured Imported Exported in the US US manufactures quite bit of guns and additionally imports lower value guns, and it also exports higher value guns ~$420 per gun ~$3,500 per gun Source: U.S. Department of Justice, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives Combined, represents ~2-3% of existing # of guns in the US
- 6. How many people die by guns? 100 80 60 40 20 0 % Did not die in 2011 Died in 2011 2011 0.8% (~3M) 100 80 60 40 20 0 Death not resulting from guns Death resulting from guns 2011 1.3% (~32K) % Source: Center for Disease Control and Prevention; U.S. Department of Justice, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives 100 0 80 40 20 60 Gun suicide 2011 4% 35% (~11 K) 61% (~20K) Undetermined/Other Gun homicide % ~11,000 people get murdered by guns each year, which is relatively small as % of death. However, guns are the most commonly used tools for homicide Represents ~70% of all homicides Represents ~52% of all suicides
- 7. What would be the impact on homicides stats if guns are banned? •Too difficult to tell... because 'ban' in true sense is not really feasible (i.e., need to collect guns that are already in households across all states) •There has been numerous case studies which showed that there were no correlations between gun-control and gun-crime, but I don't know if these studies fairly assessed the causal relationship
