Hope he pisses himself while he filibusters. In the meantime:

The CDC says there are 32,000 deaths per year from guns. In that number, about 60% are suicides, 3% accidental, 4% justified homicide, 33% criminal homicide. Of the criminal homicide, 80% are gang-related. You are left with a total of 1712 deaths in a total population of 312 million people in the US. If you don’t hang in the hood, commit a crime, or plan on committing suicide, your chance of death by firearm = 0.000008564102564%

That just doesn’t sound like the US has a problem with guns. As ever, since Cain slew Abel with a rock, the problem is the wetware, not the hardware.
