And you just said they would have died from something else, right? So then what is the point of banning guns if something else would do the job?

Please use real facts - ie. don't use the Brady campaign. These are skewed statistics.
Why don't you go and find the real numbers for violent crime in the US vs UK. What you will find will astonish you in how how UK crime is over our own. If you care to search - it is here in the general thread at subsim. i would never live in the UK because of it.
Next - cars accidently kill what? 40,000 people in the US in a given year. That is a huge number comparitevly. I think that is a much bigger target than the couple people that were accidently shot due to stupidity. +1 for Darwin. Based on your idea, we should ban cars way before we go after guns.
Maybe we should strap everyone into there home so they can't leave so that they can't get hit by lightening or something. Oh - maybe they would die from other causes then since obesity might be a problem then?
So I am trying to understand how you live in a country that is built on the very ownership of the very thing you despise? We wouldn't be America today if we followed your advice. We would be New England or something, surpressed, and taxed to the hilt till we were all poor. Do you realize what you are saying?

PS. And you actually kill people daily in sub sims, yet you hate weapons in general? I don't get it.
