That's 25% of gun related deaths. So, what number of deaths have to occur before we have a "problem"? People still die because of those issues, whether they directly or indirectly affect you or others, people still die. My point, is 40K died due to gun deaths. Over 600K due to alcohol, tobacco, or drugs (and yes, most of those don't directly affect or kill others), but the point is that why don't those 600K deaths matter as much as gun related deaths? Because it's political. Isn't a preventable death, regardless of the cause, tragic? When politicians figure that they can divide and gather votes by pushing those vices i've mentioned, they will come for them. Maybe not in our lifetime, but they will. The more power you get, the more power you want. WSS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
