Actually, I said D.C. did(does) lead the U.S. in handgun related deaths.  I used the same link.   :D

The problem with the closed thread was it started that D.C. related deaths were 2.6 times what I could find, anywhere for any year.

I was also trying to find handgun related deaths for NYC.  Looking for a correlation between "gun control" and deaths anyway.  I couldn't find any stats but wasn't trying too hard.

Thanks.
