It's plain funny at this point how many people still try to pretend guns aren't the problem

Guns: 20,138
Cars: over 46,000

And that's from an anti-gun website. You are flat out lying.

Agreed it's a lot of deaths. But before guns were invented, it was arrows and swords. The problem is people.

You ain’t wrong, there’s always gonna be someone out there that’ll hurt people, theres nothing we can do about that, or not much. But there is something we can do about the means they use to achieve it
