If those numbers were true then people would have been falling like flies. They must have counted all the guns, including those stockpiles in the government armoury. Er, Scheisskopf, almost every male Swiss between the ages of 20 and 30 receives military training and is a member of the militia. After their training they take their firearms home with them. That's right. Joe Blow Second Amendment/NRA loons shouldn't have guns. Really? Then you are saying militia members shouldnt have guns? Aren't militia members prone to gun crimes? Aren't NRA members all gun toting criminals? I'm sure statistics will back me up here... What's this now, Tom? You ready for facts all of a sudden? ==================== "Suicides accounted for 55 percent of the nation's nearly 31,000 firearm deaths in 2005 [Bush administration], the most recent year for which statistics are available from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [Bush administration]. There was nothing unique about that year..." -- http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/0..._n_110043.html ==================== Now. Half of all gun owners are their own damn victims (criminal or not). You decide, Tom. |

Well, the anti-gun people will argue that the statement "guns don't kill people, people kill people" is totally and irrefutably wrong, wrong, wrong! So I assume that if you don't either chain a gun to the wall or lock it up in a sort of jail cell, that they will suddenly leap out into the middle of the room and just start blasting away with no warning. -- cheers, John B. |

You decide, Tom. That's truly a total misreading of that statistic, plus a complete suspension from reality. Real meaning of your cite: More than half of all gun fatalities are suicides. David |
