How many people die of bombings every year? SOME gun deaths are the result of protection/self-defense. ALL bombings are a deliberate act of violence.

I'd like the UN to quantify how many people are killed by tyrants, dictators, and despots every day.

Ms Peters urged the United Nations to impose global regulations on arms distribution and set minimum guidelines for national rules on gun control.

Then we can be certain that the people who need to be killed won't be

Ms. (how seventies!) Peters can #$*! my pasty white free American *&$#.

IANSA estimates that there are about 640 million small arms in the world, 59 per cent of them in the hands of civilians.

Good lord! Whose stupid idea was it to let governments hoard 41% of our guns?!?

Get rid of totalitarian leftist governments globally, and the “gun death” total will shrink tenfold.

it doesn't break it down into defensive or offensive, a conspicuously absent statistic

If people would just stop shooting back at the people who are trying to kill or enslave them, those numbers would drop dramatically.

GUN violence is a global epidemic that kills an estimated 1000 people a day

By law abiding citizens, I am sure. Right???

1,000/day x 365/days=365,000/year killed by handguns. Now divide 365,000/6,616,000,000(world population)= 5.515 or .05%. So we are going to get upset because .05% of the worlds population dies each year. Disease and Communism kill more each day than guns do.AWB
