How many of those gunshot victims were victims of a violent crime? Robbery, drug related violence, etc?

Now, how many of those wouldn't have happened with total gun prohibition? Remember CG, criminals don't follow laws. Why did gun violence INCREASE by 300% in Australia after gun prohibition? Because only criminals had guns. Because criminals don't give a damn about your gun control laws, but they sure do care that law abiding citizens dont have guns.

What, pray tell, is so difficult about this concept? Heroin is strictly prohibited in the United States. Law abiding citizens don't have heroin. But, its still easy to get for those who don't give a damn about breaking the law. Draw the necessary parrallels.

Well I expect no other rational from someone who posts with your style . You seem to attribute to guns some morality. People kill, maim and destroy lives whether you know it [I know you don't know it}. Doctors kill maim and destroy lives all the time. A bullet kills when a person directs it into another person.

Doctor's with your belief in honor and honesty are most likely 95% of those doctors who kill, maim and destroy lives.
