We are a Warrior Nation. Occasional shootouts come part and parcel with the title and territory..

Our right to have guns kicked out the great Britain. Helped us to protect our intellectuals who then design, create, and innovate products to make life easier for the entire planet. Our right to bear arms made us number one. King of the hill.

Don't want us having guns? Then secure your own global resources. Secure your own trade routes. Create your own "iron domes". Start hunting again with sticks and arrows.

We own those other countries listed by the way.

We are keeping our guns. NO Matter WHAT.

Id say Canadians are just as violent as Americans.

We just have 1/10th the population.

I noticed that you failed to mention that the vast majority of the deaths were gangbangers and druggies killing each other, and police shootings.

But hey... 11,000 out of 330,000,000 isn't bad. Not bad at all.

Freedom has a price. The alternative... a disarmed police state, where everybody is free to be genocided, or put into FEMA camps, "re-education" centers, etc... isn't a valid option.

You DO know that all of the infrastructure has been put into place... Don't you? If AmeriKa is ever disarmed, MILLIONS and MILLIONS will die.

Take your 11,000, and shove them up your rectum.

And thanks for playing.

35,000 killed by cars, and 100,000's of thousand killed by doctors.


So 11,000 gangbangers exterminating each other...

Not a bad deal, actually.

No... people died when sinful, violent people decide to take a life. Guns do not have a will. People wanting to cause harm to others will always find away, but our guns in the U.S. are out protection.
If teachers had guns, the man would have been stopped immediately, because he would not have even gone to the school.
If people widely carried their guns and it was not challenged constantly, more people would think twice before committing gun crime, knowing that they are already surrounded.

I pity the ignorant countries that gave away what they never deserved.

Especially since he fails to mention the ones killed by baseball bats, machete's and steak knives. If it's not guns, it doesn't mean that murders just stop happening.

Murderers have a uncanny way of FINDING a way to achieve their objectives.

Don't have a gun to work with, to accomplish your mass murder suicide?

No problem. Just go get yourself some fertilizer, make a backpack bomb, and head off to kindergarten class.

This whole notion of stopping murders by banning certain objects is patently absurd. You will end up having to ban just about everything in the world. Even bibles! In China, they'll beat a pastor to death, with a bible.

Guns also save lives.
Destroy all that is evil, so what is good may flourish.

Guns cause crime like flies cause garbage.

According to the National Self Defense Survey conducted by Florida State University criminologists in 1994, the rate of Defensive Gun Uses can be projected nationwide to approximately 2.5 million per year -- one Defensive Gun Use every 13 seconds.

Among 15.7% of gun defenders interviewed nationwide during The National Self Defense Survey, the defender believed that someone "almost certainly" would have died had the gun not been used for protection -- a life saved by a privately held gun about once every 1.3 minutes. (In another 14.2% cases, the defender believed someone "probably" would have died if the gun hadn't been used in defense.)

Medical Errors 195,000/yr
Smoking Related 400,000/yr
Drowning 3,000/yr
Alcohol Related 15,000/yr
