Default It's gotten so bad, you can't even compare them to cars anymore

In article ,
says...


"As Dr. David Hemenway, director of the Harvard Injury Control
Research Center, notes in his 2004 book Private Guns, Public Health:
[T]he time Americans spend using their cars is orders of magnitudes
greater than the time spent using their guns, VPN said. More than 90
percent of American households own a car, while a little less than a
third of American households contain a gun."


That's a bogus stat. I say that 20% or less of households own a gun.
Gun nut own multiple guns. Could be as little as 10%.
