The U.S. kills some 37,000 people annually in auto accidents and
injures an additional 2.35 million. Versus a miserable 11,000 gun
deaths.

One can only marvel at the mentality that seizes on the lessor while
ignoring the larger evil.

A correction he We have entire agencies (the NHTSA), research
conducted under the Highway Safety Act of 1970, and extensive research
and industry standards *by* the manufacturers to improve automobile
safety. I'm writing an article right now about the American Iron and
Steel Institute research on steels that improve side-impact and roof
intrusion.

It's a vast operation and the result has been a sharp reduction in
per-mile accident and death rates.

So your "ignoring the larger evil" line is absolute nonsense. It's the
opposite of reality.
