Your absolutely correct, so lets get right to the Stats. The most recent complete list.
2005 Alcohol related deaths. CAR - 43,443 dead; of those 306 were children. Alcohol claimed over 100,000 total lives in 2005.
2005 Cardiovascular Disease Deaths 864,480 dead. 35.3% of ALL deaths or 1 out of every 2.8.
2005 Cancer deaths 559,312
2005 gun deaths. 12,352 homicides 40%
17,002 suicides 55%
330 legal intervention
221 undetermined 5%
During the 10 year span from 1994 to 2003 there were 616 law enforcment officers killed in the line of duty.
Now do your own research. There were more street & highway workers killed on the job than policemen and firefighters COMBINED. Do you REALLY think we would better off living in a country were ONLY our government had guns? Now theres a scarry thought. When you really get down to the STATS, don't you agree our time, money, and our effort would be better spent on the things that will do our country some good.
We are still fighting the war on drugs and losing. You want to reduce gun crimes? Reduce the number of criminals and stop the drug traffic trade.
New or more stringent gun laws make LESS sense than proabition.

Mister you are an idiot. The second ammendment gives me every right to bear arms. To try and take that right away from me will only get yourself hurt.

Gunner, when your government comes to take your gun away, you will politely give it to them. If you don't, you will end up like David Koresh, and they will end up prying it out of your warm, crispy hand.
