1. Dubious study because it fails to account for lives saved. 2. Irrelevant anyway because even if guns result in a net increase in deaths or accidents in the home — and they must for accidents at least — they’re still the key to maintaining our safety from a police state dictatorship (wherein, history teaches us, there’d be far greater losses of life), 3. This is America not some other country where guns can be banned. “ the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be Infringed” 4. We are not only born in America with the inalienable rights to arms, liberty, and self- defense, but we have free will to assume risks of accidents in our lives if we wish ( just as we do when we drive cars, try to digest a Big Mac, or go shopping at Walmart. Those seeking to grab our guns are not only disrespecting our rights, they’re disrespecting us as human beings. 5. They couldn’t possibly grab more than two or three percent of the estimated 400 million guns in America, anyway. Do you know anyone who’d give their armnaments up to a government diktat? Such an order would be the very signal of a dictatorship - just as was King George’s orders to disarm the Americans — you know, the diktat that helped set off the American Revolution. Finally, we are a threatened now by six years of obama importing enemy agents from every radical anti- Americsn anti- Christian islamoNazi Krapistan on earth. He’s building up the Islsmonazi Enemy Within - in cities and towns and villages from sea to shining sea. Even once- safe Midwestern and southern rural areas are not safe from this onslaught. Nobody’s giving up their guns - no matter if guns can be accidentally injurious and no matter how many studies reports “laws” or executive orders may come down on us. The whole subject of gun control” is a non-starter in the face of this clear and present danger from within our borders Finally, let’s remember that an armed citizenry is still the last defense against our external enemies, too. Our founders weren’t stupid. They knew guns can accidentally misfire. They knew guns can be misused too. They also realized that a disarmed population is a defenseless poplation - one that will be enslaved by either domestic or foreign enemies of our freedom and liberties, our faith and our independence. Gun control? Forget it! Now, go out and add to your collection today. ( Better pick up some extra ammo, too — see all the reports about the obama administration trying to deplete the market of bullets ).
If the number/% increased as much as they claim(500%, 1000%, your choice) then yes, we would need to have all the “trespassers” moving in just to keep up the kill rate. With 300+million firearms available, we should all be gone by now. And yet the IPOS/SPOS/LPOS/UPOS constituency keeps drinking the kool aid. But they can tell you what the kardashians and transformer jenner are doing.
