Sure, there's the <BR/>occassional innocent victim(and that's tragic - any innocent<BR/>murder victim has my sympathy), but you're a jillion times more likely to be killed<BR/>by someone driving after 14 margaritas than by Billy the Kid.<BR/>The odds of you, BMP, or me, being killed by a gun are razor thin.<BR/><BR/>Here's a factoid for ya:<BR/>When the CDC reports 'accidental gun deaths of children', they include <BR/>A) All people under age 25,and<BR/>B) suicides by gun.<BR/><BR/>What the??<BR/><BR/>Just my $.02. And I live in Chicago, which has some of the strictest gun control laws<BR/>in the nation, and routinely (along with B'more) leads the nation in murders.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15840370708098022422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7002745.post-1149688302752767902006-06-07T09:51:00.000-04:002006-06-07T09:51:00.000-04:00Yeah, but how many "deliberate deaths" have been c...Yeah, but how many "deliberate deaths" have been caused by guns?
