In reply to the discussion: Gun Deaths Outpace Motor Vehicle Deaths in 10 States [View all]Union Scribe
(7,099 posts)63. Yeah, this is what I'm talking about.
So you hate my posts.
Your posts are like junk mail. A person might "hate" them in theory, but in practice we've all learned to shake our heads and move on.
Probably hate me too.
Nuh-uh. Hatred is a strong potion, reserved for important things. You aren't, and you aren't good at stirring up much more than confused bemusement.
I know gun-religionists hate anybody who doesn't think guns are the answer to every problem.
And this is why. You just swing in the dark instead of replying to people. I know it's supposed to be insulting, but it's so meaninglessly vague and ineptly delivered.
Up your game.

Another thought occurred to me this morning - All vehicle-related deaths are needless and tragic

The gun accident rate is far lower than the car accident rate in all 50 states.

There are a few "anti" comments at HuffPo if you dive deeply- but they're not faring well...

Not likely, for 2 reasons- 1. The # of gun deaths is declining (and always was lower than MV deaths)
