Another silly gun bill has been introduced..

23. Surpass implies that gun deaths rose to pass auto deaths.

That isn't what is happening. They are simply falling at a slower rate than car deaths. If you go beyond the headlines and look at the actual statistics show, you will see that too. While gun accidents and homicides with firearms are dropping, and have been for decades, suicides with firearms have not. That is the majority of gun deaths. They are remaining the same.
What is really happening the car death is dropping faster than all gun deaths. If people simply switched to hanging themselves instead of shooting them selves, some people would actually call that progress. I would not.

True, before guns were invented, there were no gun deaths. However, Europe at the time made modern Mexico look like Pax Utopia. However, nothing can be dis-invented. If every person carried a person carried a gun on their person at all times. The restricting and banning of concealed carry in the US and Europe in the 1920s didn't see a drop. Liberalizing concealed carry in the US over the past 30 years did not see a rise. I don't think so
