The country is on a gun buying spree. Every gun show in the US is over-packed with thousands more than usual. That there would be some small number of accidents among these hoardes is statistically likely.

I went to my local gun shops last week. There were no rifles larger than a .22 on the walls. They had a good selection of handguns, though.

On the range, I started out awesome, but went downhill from there. I think it was this bug I’ve come down with. I was tiring. Gave up after about 70-80 rounds.

consider Marathon running events. For every 100,000 runners there is ONE death during the event.

nobody is banning those. (remember the legendary first runner dropped dead at the end. Heck of a sport to start from that)
