Guns.com: New Study Reaffirms the Obvious About Urban Gun Violence

Posted on News by Jennifer Van Laar · November 15, 2016 11:46 AM

A newly-released study by the Urban Institute highlights a major effect of gun violence in inner cities: as gun violence increases, the number of businesses and jobs in an area decreases. It seems like a no-brainer. People don't want to go to areas where they're not safe, and business owners don't want the increased risk that accompanies locating in a high-crime neighborhood.

Newsweek: What Clinton Could Do For Gun Control if Elected

Posted on News by Jennifer Van Laar · November 07, 2016 10:15 AM

Hillary Clinton has spelled out what much of her gun control agenda will be if she is elected - and she hasn't toned down her rhetoric as the campaign comes to a close.
