Have to agree with Gunrunner on this one.
You only have to look at the frightening statistics in the US, of the sheer volume of people killed and injured by Firearms, to realise it's not good.
The figures speak for themselves (this from the World Health Authority)
"Despite a recent spike in drug related shootings in a handful of cities including London, a resident of England or Wales remains 26 times less likely to die by gunshot than an American. In Japan, the risk of gun death is at least 100 times lower than in the United States.
That said, best estimates show that gunshots cost us 500 000 lives each year, worldwide. Of these, 300 000 people die in regional conflict and 200 000 in interpersonal violence and suicide.7 The majority of victims are non-combatants, many of them women and children. Where estimates are available, non-fatal firearm related injuries are said to number three for every gun death."
Face it uncleal...Guns are BAD NEWS!
