Guns homicides make up 0.3% of deaths, but it’s all you hear about

What about the other 99.7% of deaths not caused by gun homicides? Are we not counting those?

Gun homicides make up only 0.3% of deaths in the us, but it’s all you hear about.

yeetus deletus I would like to think that we could atleast stand as a threat. 300 million is a force to be reckoned.

Sienna Anderson no it’s not. 1/333 is minuscule, and is dwarfed by road incidents, diseases, ect. Are we to ban cars because of overwhelming road deaths? Also removing guns would only shift the attacks to knives.

Sienna Anderson and I said homicides didn’t I? I have done my research, in 2017 (which is the easiest year to get stats on) 39 773 people were killed by firearms. 23 854 (60%) were suicide 14 542 (37%) were homicides -15% of were killed by police 1 337 (3%) accidental This is out of a total of 2 813 503 deaths in 2017, putting gun deaths at just over 1% (more like 1.4) 37% of which are homicides So really 0.4%-0.5% of deaths are gun homicides. That, again, is minuscule when remembering removing guns would only drop the rate by half, increase the rate of rapes, home invasions, and give our government the power to control anything we do.

Well they aren’t wrong. Gun free zones are prone targets for mass shooters because it’s easy to kill someone who can’t fight back. Schools, shops, bars all targets.

Backfiring? Yeas I would definitely give up my right to defend myself to save 0.3% of deaths. Almost meaningless, definitely when you instead swap to increased house invasions, rape and knife murders.

Jamie Nelson one- why do you think no one will invade? Maybe because of the advanced military???

MaxamillionSubs I account that there have been over 15 massacres since Port Arthur, and many shootings. Luckily nothing crazy, but it only takes one nut to wipe out a defenceless populace.

Do you know the definition of a terrorist attack?

JihadThejeep BinLaden like?

Ahh yes. I wish the only way to die was by gun, well that would prevent 99.7% of deaths because only a tiny fraction of people die by guns. Look at the facts - guns prevent tens of thousands of crimes yearly. Guns also provide a passive protection, which is why home invasions are much lower than they should be. They also allow the less abled (woman, people with disabilities, elderly) to defend themselves.

Veronica C. 100 million people from all sides of the country would atleast stand a threat. Definitely with body armour, or other weapons you can get with a license.
