except, again, they laws work fine in Europe or Japan... The US is the only country with a severe gun fetish where 21% of the population gets to terrorize the rest of us.
I said no such thing, but your reading comprehension is wrong. It's like that Condo thread, where I explained my situation about six times and you STILL didn't understand it.
I can't tell you how much I love my new place, BTW.
Um, no, it isn't. Frankly, I can't think of anything more selfish than committing suicide, because someone ends up finding that body.
Except most people who kill themselves with guns in the home aren't terminally ill. It's usually some bullshit like "My girlfriend dumped me".
Uh, no. Those numbers are bullshit. At the risk of DickTiny spooging the thread with his DGU nonsense, here's why that's unbelievable.
The FBI actually lists DGU's at 39,000, not millions. The numbers for DGU's range from 39,000 to 5 million, all of which are questionable, because you can't even come up with a clear definition of a DGU.
SO, the thing we do know, according to the FBI, is the number of justified homicides by civilians with guns is 200 a year. (There are also 1000 police shootings of civilians, which are almost always ruled as "justified", which just means no one caught them putting the drop piece on them.)
So what you are to believe is that all these gun nuts out there with their guns, waiting for their chance to shoot a scary black person... I mean, sorry, a "sub-human", if you listen to Mormon Bob pretending he is totally not racist... and they have 39,000 or a million opportunities to shoot someone... and 99% of the time they don't?
