Gary Kleck
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gary Kleck (born March 2, 1951) is a criminologist at Florida State University who is a leading expert on the links between guns, violence and gun control laws in the United States.
He has done statistical analysis of crime in the United States and argues that while in 1993 there were about four hundred thousand crimes committed with guns, there were approximately 2.5 million crimes in which victims used guns for self-protection.
In 1993, Kleck won the Michael J. Hindelang Award from the American Society of Criminology for his book Point Blank: Guns and Violence in America.
