You completely and totally miss the point. Would you rather have 100 million die in 2 world wars in 25 years with severe gun control, or have under a million in 229 years?

That's what I hate about `muricans. Convinced their view is right and resorting to calling people stupid and euro trash when if don't agree with them. You're right - Gun control won't work in the US. I disagree with your views, and you immediately become aggressive and combative calling me names and implying everyone in my country is stupid rather then trying to convince me diplomatically to your point of view... Who was pointing fingers? I was trying to have an intelligent discussion as I wrote in my first post. I show recent statistics on firearm homicides, and you start comparing the murders that happened in poland in ww2 to the murders in all the history of the US. Of course there was more then during the civil war - there were tanks, planes, landmines, handgranades, rifles, machine guns, etc. Technology made killing more efficient. We're not in ww2, we're not in the civil war, we're not in medieval times - we're here and it's now. WW2 wasn't exactly Poland's idea, and the number of deaths here had nothing to do with Poland's policy on firearms at that time.
The world is a different place then it was 200 or even 50 years ago. You aren't being invaded, you aren't trying to get your independance from the british, you have a far more populated/colonized country where you no longer have to worry about wolves and bears ripping your children to shreds when they are playing outside and not every man, woman and child needs a collection of assault rifle to protect their home.
Whatever though - how about we just agree to disagree and instead of resorting to name calling?
