Firearm fatalities in Eastern Saudi Arabia: impact of culture and legislation
A study of all firearm fatalities in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia during the 10-year period from 1985 to 1994 is presented. The overall number of cases was 71 (0.35 per 100,000 population), of which 48% were homicides, 28% were suicides, and 24% were accidental (about 17 of the 71 cases). Hell, 17 is like the first warm weekend in Chicago.
