Reply #63: 2.91%, actually (for all rifles combined). A fact that is incontrovertible.

All rifles combined account for roughly half as many murders in the United States annually as as shoes and bare hands, and a small fraction of the number committed with knives.

Fact is, the "bad guys" rarely use rifles of any type. But apparently you are having trouble with the definition of "rare" as it applies to statistics.

Use of a civilian AK lookalike in a violent crime in the United States is between a two-sigma and a three-sigma event. Don't tell me you don't understand that.
