And how many vehicle deaths did we have last year? 42,000 +

Wrong as usual, Gummer -- the actual figure is slightly less than 36,000.

Sorry..I was going by 2010 figures.

No, you weren't. You were just making stuff up.

How do I know that? Because I know what the 2010 figures a 35,332.

And it is odd that such figures
are all over the place, depending on which source they are gotten
from.

Really? Cite your sources, please.

"Overall, there were an estimated 247,421,120 registered passenger
vehicles in the United States according to a 2005 DOT study. "

"There is an estimated 325,000,000 firearms privately owned in the
US...yet in the U.S. for 2010, there were 31,513 deaths from
firearms, distributed as follows by mode of death: Suicide 19,308;
Homicide 11,015; Accident 600.

Yet Eddy....there were far less deaths because of guns than vehicles
and it includes Suicide!

Twelve percent fewer is hardly "far less".

Indeed it is Far Less in actual numbers.

No, it is not. It's "far less" only when compared to your made-up numbers for motor vehicle
deaths, not when compared to the actual numbers.
