Homicide and Gun Control
Author: Jeffrey D. Monroe
Publisher: LFB Scholarly Publishing
ISBN:
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
Monroe investigates the success of the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act at reducing homicide. Using data from the 1989 - 1997 Uniform Crime Reports: Supplemental Homicide Reports, Monroe conducts differences-in-differences-in-differences (DDD) analyses. Monroe's results indicate that Brady had no effect on overall adult homicide rates and caused a statistically insignificant decline in adult handgun homicide rates. Contrary to an anticipated substitution effect - wherein the use of long guns in homicide would increase as handguns became more difficult to acquire -Brady's implementation is significantly related to a decrease in the use of rifles, shotguns and other non-handgun firearms to commit homicide.

Pages : 91
Book Description
The Brady handgun control law imposed a five-day waiting period on handgun sales to allow for background checks. GAO's self-initiated review of the first full year of the Brady bill's implementation discusses (1) how often the five-day waiting period and background checks resulted in denying criminals and other ineligible persons the opportunity to buy handguns from federally licensed dealers; (2) the extent to which such denials resulted in the arrest and the prosecution of convicted felons and other ineligible purchasers who falsely completed the handgun purchase application form; and (3) the effects of the various legal challenges to the Brady bill. Although GAO found that 4.3 percent of purchase applications were denied during the law's first year, these results are not projectable to the universe of denials nationwide because standard and common criteria were not used to make denials.
