    | Guns kill 1,400 Pennsylvanians every year. That's a clear, round statistic, but it's a complicated one, encompassing deaths in our biggest cities, small towns and rural areas. PublicSource has spent the last three weeks taking a closer look at these deaths and what can be done to prevent them.  Solutions depend on better understanding. But with gun violence, much of what seems intuitive isn't necessarily true, even with something as simple as identifying who's pulling the trigger. To shine some light and dispel assumptions, here are answers to a few common questions.

    | Another plea for a law to take peoples guns away when they are in "crisis" Given that your typical shrink is a liberal of which the majority are anti-2A, this is just backdoor gun control. This kind of law without any kind of due process is dangerous to a persons 2A rights. |

                      | Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people.  — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |  |  |
