Here are some other numbers to ponder:
Number of physicians in the US = 700,000
Accidental deaths caused by physicians per year = 120,000
Accidental deaths per physician = 0.171
Number of gun owners in the US = 80,000,000
Number of accidental gun deaths per year (all age groups) = 1,500
Accidental deaths per gun owner = 0.0000188
Therefore, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners.

So true.

I'm brazilian and the gun control here, initiated since 2005 is NOT working at all. Our government is laughing at the face of democracy, because the majority of the population don't want gun control and they do it anyway.
And the people who fights against it are being ignorated by the government and the media. It's gonna be a hard and long work before we can get our right to defend ourselves again.
Take us for example. Gun Control does not work!!

the right way to go about gun control is not to restrict them but to make sure people are trained with them. my idea for a safer gun legislation is that before transaction you have to prove you know what your doing. ex proof of taking a class or clinic/military service.(my opinion)

Switzerland has the lowest crime rate of ANY country.And this is because they issue EACH and EVERY house a gun. and if you serve in the military, you get to keep your rifle. There are also no restrictions on the types of guns, so a 30 caliber machine gun is perfectly legal. If guns kill people, then spoons make michael moore fat.

@FullmetalCX where do you get that data? bullets are expensive in a recession. don't forget all that unreported crime.

@wcresponder lol no. The UK, New Zealand, and Australia are the top three countries for violent crime, third world countries notwithstanding.
The two areas in the US with the highest amounts of shooting deaths are Washington, DC and Chicago, IL. Both of which had strict handgun bans up until the supreme court struck the them down in 2008. When that happened, the crime rate plummeted. As a whole, violent crime in the US is actually the lowest it has been for years, despite being in a recession.

A disarmed public only benefits the criminals, public or private sector.

Are you saying handguns or every gun in general because there is no reason for citizens to have to register long guns. Long guns are mainly used by hunters, criminals use handguns and think about do you really think a criminal is going to register his gun

@ahigheztarget check your data on gun deaths again.
I am a Vermonter who carries a gun nearly every place I go. Do i feel safer? I certainly do. No one is going to be shooting up any malls schools playgrounds or homes if I am anywhere near.
A responsible gun owner who carries his gun, should be the only one who EVER knows he has it, until it is absolutely needed.
Granted, I consider myself responsible and a community minded past boy scout type etc. VT has no Gun Control and our crime rates are remarkably low. Because here, Criminals fear.

@CarlMinez there is a big difference between coming to america legally and sneaking in to take advantage of the system, then demanding rights and the same things I have worked my whole life for. I have worked in restuarants for years, I have seen the situation with illegals progress to what it is today. They are laughing in our faces, and we are paying for it. Get your head out of your ass.
