its not all that simple to get a gun in the USA...maybe for a shot gun or hunting rifle, but certainly NOT for a hand gun....

also it is very hard to find real statistics on the subject of casualties, etc...why?, because one has to take into account the number of people in the county, the number of guns in legal possession, etc...simple statements like "only 100 people died in Britain from accidental gun discharges and 10,000 in the USA" make no applicable sense simply because our population is much higher and guns are legal here whereas they are not in Britain...get the point? anti-gun proponents will not present real statistics because they don't prove the point they wish to make...

our founding fathers gave us the right to bear arms for specific reasons, one of them being SO THAT WE CAN TAKE OUR COUNTRY BACK FROM THE CURRENT DAY CORRUPT LEADERS...get that point?

as far as accidents...just a thinning of the herd...harsh, but most likely necessary IMHO...
