Bull****. Bull****. Bull****. There's about 3,000 gun accidents

Jeez sorry if I've upset you Holly....I'm only quoting from your Govt
figures


Those are bull**** figures that you pulled out of your ass.

Ahhh, the cry of the deluded gun nut!

3,000 gun accidents....maybe. I'd have to check.

30,242 dead in 2002.




In 1999 there were 1776 gun deaths in the 0 through 17 age group and
3385 gun deaths in the 0 through 19 age group. By subtraction we find
that there were a whopping 1609 gun deaths in just the 18 through 19
age group. Historically the 18 through 24 age group is the highest
crime-committing group. At age 18 part-time drug dealers leave school
and become full-time drug dealers. Despite the propaganda from the gun
control lobby, criminals in general and drug dealers in particular are
the group of so-called children most likely to be shot by their fellow
criminals. You can verify this by reading the local gun death news
stories in any city newspaper. School shootings are so rare that every
one gets national television coverage, but drug dealers are shot so
often that they are barely mentioned in their local newspaper.

Older people's gun deaths are most likely to be suicides. Suicides
typically make up 56.5% of all gun deaths according to the Bureau Of
Justice Statistics. In fact, drugs and suicides account for more than
2 out of every 3 gun deaths in the USA.
