51. This is exactly why I think guns

should be confiscated.

I am so incredibly sick of all the justifications for these deaths. Not a single one should occur. It's rather amazing that other countries get by without the ubiquitous ownership of guns, and more to the point, their citizens don't die from guns at the incredible rates ours do.

Confiscate the guns. Pure and simple. Take them away. Make gun ownership something that requires many stages of justification.

I just wish that only those who apologize for guns would be the only ones who would die from guns. Unfortunately, it's mostly the innocents who die.

Plus, while I can look up deaths from firearms, I cannot look up wounding and maiming. I suspect that those wounded and maimed outnumber the dead by several orders of magnitude, but those somehow never show up in the gun debate.
