But thanks all the same for the repetition of your diatribe.

Call it what you want, but that does not change the volume of firearm violence we have.
you guys understand that most gun deaths numbers are over inflated right? when people talk about gun death they have the idea of murder in mind.. when in fact only about 6300 died from hand guns last year, and another 3700 from 'other firearm murders.' the numbers you see 40k+ include self inflicted (which accounts for 2/3rd of gun death) or suicide by gun (which this number will not change if you take away guns as these people are determined to end their lives one way or another.) and the other big number is people being shot by police. follow up by accidental shootings. which means you have about 10,000 gun murders and from what i understand the vast majority of that number is gang related.
