(3,891 posts)A million a year? Two million? How many people must die before you will surrender your guns? Suicide by guns already outnumber auto accidents as a leading cause of death. We are among the world leaders, not in science, or in math, but in death rates from your beloved guns.
States with must issue permits have a higher rate of gun violence than states like New York, with very restrictive gun regulations. Yet, you'll stand back and denounce me for wanting to take your precious gun.
No matter how much evidence you are shown that you are part of the problem of gun violence, you will refuse to give up your gun declaring you have a constitutional right to put your neighbors, family, and fellow citizens in danger. No amount of evidence will ever convince you, no amount of families shattered by senseless violence will ever soften your heart.
Apparently the old saying is true. A single death is a tragedy, a million is a statistic.
