Paul,
Just look south of the border where all guns are illegal to see how the laws are killing innocent civilians for your statistics. That is not far from your house is it ? People like you are always using statistics to distort reality when it is right in front of your face or in your case door. You did not use the Mexican stats because they are too close to you and too distorted. And they blame it on drugs. Another distorted lie.
Like my father used to say "it is better to be illegal than dead."
Besides, despite the looks of our laws they are actually on my side.

Rick,
Every day where I work, I use tools that are far more dangerous than guns. I have been doing this for more than 30 years and have never hurt myself or anyone else.
So your contention is blatantly wrong. As usual.
You both need a good soaking .
