"I find it weirdly fascinating that after 1980, the gun curve and the
other curve
are almost perfect mirrors of each other. (whenever the gun goes up, other
goes down, and vice versa)."

One thing the chart shows is that as the population has grown, the rate of
violence has continued to fall.

The media have made a profitable industry of sensalitionizing violence.

I read an article about child abductions a while back.  The rate of child
abductions is no greater in the US than it has ever been.  You wouldn't
know that from TV.
