would be interesting if they did it the other way around as well. how many lives saved via guns vs the medical industry.you don't know you're wearing a leash if you sit by the peg all day.. -
Doctors are usually held accountable as are drug manufacture companies if they did something that caused the death.
Doctors & drug companies are also required to keep malpractice insurance.
So.. by that line of thinking if you want to compare guns to doctors & drugs.. Perhaps Gun owners should be required to have accidental shooting insurance and gun manufactures maybe should be liable if their guns are used to kill people?
Is this what you are saying?In November, you can vote for America's next president or its first dictator.Comment

Interesting to think what percentage of those homicides would have been murdered anyway?Comment

The drug manufacturers are actively marketing and pushing people to take their drugs. The gun manufacturers do not market their guns to civilians for you to go kill other people.
Is an automobile manufacturer held responsible for a drunk driver killing someone or for any driver killing someone? No.Comment

Is the automobile manufacturer held responsible for a drunk driver killing someone? No. Do we hold Colt or Bushmaster or Armalite responsible when someone goes on a shooting rampage. No, we do not.
The difference is the vast majority of Americans need a car on a daily basis, but have no need for a firearm. My wife, for example, uses her car on a daily basis but yet has never needed a firearm. The family across the street, husband and wife, three kids, uses their cars on a daily basis but yet has never ever needed or touched a firearm. My other neighbor is from Cuba, wife, two girls; He utterly fails to understand why anyone in the US needs a firearm.
You can't compare firearm deaths to automobile deaths; We need cars. You can't compare firearm deaths to deaths caused by doctors; Eventually almost all of us will die while under the care of doctors.Herschel Savage

I can't remember the last time I told someone, "Hey buddy, you SHOULD own a gun, why the hell wouldn't you own one!?"
What causes certain people to tell others what they should and shouldn't own?Comment

YES! People DO hold the guns accountable, haha, that is the whole point of this. People who want even more gun control and to ban the right to own a firearm. Blaming everything except the only person responsible, the one who pulled the trigger.
Also, I do get your point. But who is to tell another person what they do and do not need? I actually do not need a car and don't own one.Last edited by D Ghost; 01-31-2013, 09:57 AM.Comment
