    We have about 70000 plus deaths from overdoses.
    As for comparing rifles to knives its simple . rifles only account for about 500 deaths a year . now out of that you have to account for suicides and actual accidental shooting from improper gun handling from cleaning accidents and hunting accidents .
    This lowers the murder rate for rifles a lot .Then account for how many are ar 15s and you have a small number maybe 250 deaths a year from the evil black rifle . where there are about 1700 deaths a year from stabbing with knives. I doubt very many are from suicide or accidental stabbings . so if liberals are concerned about the evil black rifle they should be more concerned about knives and hands and feet and clubs because several times more people are killed with these then rifles .
    Locking down the boarder would result in saving far more lives.

    Wow, you think that 70,000 deaths are caused by "dope" overdoses. Why don't you compare deaths from rifle with death by spear? Your posts are nonsense

    well now they are nonsense or you just dont like the facts . The evil black rifle the ar15 democrats want to ban kill far less people then knives about 1700 a year and feet and hands about the same and about 700 for clubs .
    should we not go after the real killer of people ? or the 70,000 plus deaths from drugs ? or cars they kill far more we should ban them or
    You dont like the facts and cant handle the truth is my opinion

    What a dishonest way to say you in fact are all for people dying if it means it inconveniences you when you go to purchase a weapon.

    To start with your "only 500 deaths a year" trivializes the 500 deaths by rifle. Next its a lazy response that does not address:

    https://www.politifact.com/factchec...hecking-number-people-killed-rifles-and-peop/

    The fact that most homicides are done withhand guns does not make rifles or any gun other than a handgun more safe. What a ridiculous thing to say. Any weapon with a bullet is dangerous.

    The pro gun owners on this thread attempt to deflect from what gun regulation is. They use arguments like its unfair to gun owners, unfair to good people who own guns, its not related to amount of gun ownership (guns in circulation), they won;t discuss gun storage laws, or gun screening laws.

    In the latest insanity in Texas we see a young man of 18 right after his birthday go out and buy two rifles.Tell me where was his training? How was he screened? Those kind of issues won;t be discussed by the pro gunners on this thread. They will reduce and deflect all arguments down to how gun regulation is unfair to them, period,.

    Thought and prayers to the victims. Which does them no good. As usual.

    We are a spineless society who will do nothing to address this issue what so ever.

    in fact we will probably just make it even easier for people to get guns and kill people.

    You're being willfully ignorant thinking you can solve the problem of people killing each other, and it's hilarious.

    End the Drug War, assuming you care past having a dumb talking point.

    One disaster at a time, you can't handle even the one....
