According to the British Home Office's 2006 crime statistics report, when robbery victims are injured, the rates of injury compared to reaction to the robbers are

Resisting with a gun 6%
Did nothing at all 25%
Resisted with a knife 40%
Non-violent resistance 45%

How does having a gun make me more likely to get hurt?
