Well what I think is interesting is our suicide rate.. :o
The US has the highest gun related suicides in the world, and our firearm homicide rate is half of the suicide rate. Cuhrazay.
Anyway, this is kinda interesting, mixster. I'm sure you can use it for proof that the banning of firearms would be a good thing in America.

Then again, that's from the whole world.

Worldwide, cars cause many more deaths than firearms.
And I'm not arguing for or against anyone, I just think it's quite intriguing. :3
Also, if banning guns/cars is for the death caused by it, then that doesn't really make sense. Alcohol and tobacco cause more deaths by far than guns and cars combined.

The gun is not so much to protect you from domestic crime, it is meant to protect you from the government.
