What experts?  Certainly not anyone in the CDC!  They are
less-than-unbiased by any stretch of the imagination.  They even had
funding pulled for their pseudo-science involving firearms.  Gun control
has not helped to lower the rate one bit.  The main decrease, at least in
accidental shootings, has been from education.  Whether it is training the
adults or educating the kids (with programs such as Eddie Eagle), it has
helped to reduce accidental deaths.
