I found this hilarious in that article


The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence - which supports gun control - said the decision would "most likely embolden criminal defendants, and ideological extremists, to file new legal attacks on existing gun laws".

rofl.. as if these group of people are going out and buying legal guns. Even if this ban were in place they would get guns and use them. Banning doesn't change a thing, just look at prohibition in the United States.

im so glad we still have 2nd amendment

heres a funny statistic i ran across showing guns arnt that dangerous. its the person behind the gun

Doctors:

(A) The number of physicians in the U.S. is 700,000

(B) Accidental deaths caused by Physicians is 120,000

(C) Accidental deaths per physician is 0.171.

Statistics courtesy of U.S. Dept of Health & Human Services.

Now think about this:

Guns:

(A) The number of gun owners in the U.S. is 80,000,000.

(Yes, that's 80 million..)

(B) The number of accidental gun deaths per
year, all age groups, is 1,500.
(C) The number of accidental deaths per gun
owner is .000188

Statistics courtesy of the FBI

So, statistically, doctors are approximately

9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners.

Remember, 'Guns don't kill people, doctors do.'

FACT: NOT EVERYONE HAS A GUN, BUT

ALMOST EVERYONE HAS AT LEAST ONE DOCTOR.
