Per HeyBub:
Okay, you don't believe it? Here's an article from Snopes:
http://www.snopes.com/crime/statistics/ausguns.asp

That's Australia.

In the U.S., gun crime went UP during the gun ban.

After reading the Snopes article with it's sever observations on
how statistics can mislead, I'm reluctant to take *any* statistic
at face value.
