Guns and Colorado
#1
Gun suicides and gun homicides don't map onto the same areas.. This is an investigative unit's report on Colorado's deadliest neighborhood. Interesting reading.

In Colorado, as elsewhere, the debate roils over gun laws, fueled by mass shootings. But the truth is the horrific events of Columbine and Aurora represent a tiny fraction of Colorado’s unremitting loss of life involving guns: 6,258 deaths from 2000 through 2011, 76 percent of them suicides, 20 percent homicides. That’s 10 guns deaths a week – every week – during that span.

Five of the top six neighborhoods for gun homicides were in the Denver or Aurora, while the top four neighborhoods for gun suicides were in Grand Junction, Montrose or Mesa County.
