Ah!  I didn't realize multiple suggestions could live in the same file 
under our conventions.  Guess I'll have to go reread the Documentation
HOWTO.

I'll document it.

No matter how one approaches the figures, one is forced to the rather
startling conclusion that the use of firearms in crime was very much
less when there were no controls of any sort and when anyone,
convicted criminal or lunatic, could buy any type of firearm without
restriction.  Half a century of strict controls on pistols has ended,
perversely, with a far greater use of this weapon in crime than ever
before.
