Can you a cite a source for this number?


C. Kelly's book "Blown Away" a study of American women and guns. BTW 17
million ( and growing) women in the USA carry guns.

Boy Dave and Max would have a field day with her, a Canadian, work
published in both the New York Times and the Washington post!

The book was published in 2004, so the figure you cite is not for "last
year". Kellys number for gun ownership is between 11 and 17 million, I
see you have chosen the higher.

Not having read the book I'd still like to know were the number came
from, (100,000 women fended of robbers...).
