One of this board's favorite topics....

No, not bashing IB. That is not what this thread is about, and if he doesn't say something stupid I won't take it there.

Guns.

Of more specifically, gun deaths per capita.

If you are a frequent reader of this forum the results will probably surprise you.

But too often it is others who die.

“What she failed to mention is that unlike automobile fatalities, most firearms fatalities in the U.S. result from the uninsurable acts of intentional criminal behavior or self-inflicted acts, not accidents,” Baker said.

The majority of deaths related to firearms are suicides — which are on the rise — and not homicides, according to the CDC data. In 2013, more than 21,000 suicides were firearm-related, and more than 11,200 homicides involved a firearm.


This is a whole new bunch of Old-(D) bullshit we need to address!

"gun deaths exceeded motor vehicle deaths in 14 states and the District of Columbia in 2011, the latest year for which the relevant data are available from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. That’s up from 12 states in 2010 and 9 states in 2009."

The CDC also reports that each year approximately 16,651 individuals now die by overdosing on "legal", prescription pain killers; yet, no one is running around trying to impose a wholesale ban.

Every day, 44 people in the U.S. die from overdose of prescription painkillers, and many more become addicted. If you have pain, learn about the risks of these powerful drugs and about other options for safe, effective pain management. (CDC)

Furthermore, when the CDC factors in illicit drugs and misuse of alcohol, that number climbs to 80,000.

In 2010, there were 80,000 drug and alcohol overdose deaths in the U.S., according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ... (source)

And you are correct, I posted the data without comment--yet. I certainly didn't make any comment advocating taking away guns, did I?
