In terms of odds, homes with guns are something like 7 times more

You can make a far worse case against swimming pools. What's your
point?
There you go. Comparing swimming pools to guns. What's your point?
Get real. Why not trampolines and bicycles and canoes?
Gun nuts always have some bull**** to sling.
Anybody with sense sees it as bull****.
OK why not?
You folks want to lump in accidents, crimes and suicides to get a
spectacular number (JPs 31k)
Why can't we lump in all the other things that kill people?
You all still keep ignoring that the death rate by gun is actually
going down while the number of guns goes up and that the place where
violence is escalating is in a pretty small minority of the population
that is not politically correct to identify.
The percentage of people owning guns is going down, the people who own
guns are acquiring more.
If the number of guns promotes a safer environment, by all rights the
USA should be the safest place on the planet, next to Somalia.
