Not many. Here is an interesting chart: http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/cri_mur_wit_fir_percap-crime-murders-firearms-per-capita Too bad it doesn't break down legal and illegal guns. Look at countries like Mexico that has VERY strict gun laws, yet its murder rate is higher than the US. Then look at Switzerland which has one of the highest rates of gun ownership and see how low on the list it is. Banning weapons does not make them cease to exist. It only prevents people from owning them legally, preventing law abiding citizens from any means of defense and giving criminals an area where they know they will not have any resistance. Tom,

Otherwise I'm afraid it won't be very popular outside English speaking countries. I really like the idea of a LoCo directory, but it should be properly localised in order to succeed.

To the other "offended" people, remember it's not the weapon that kills someone, it's the person using it. More people die in cars every year, should be ban those? Of course not.
