Though that is probably true, do you have a link to the source of your info? Try your search engine. 70, that is too damn easy. Remember we should hold all OP's to provide links to what they are claiming. Most everybody does. I guess we all do on occasion forget, but most of us are pretty good about it.

And, over 1.5 million have been killed by cars in that same time. Ban cars? We work very hard to make cars safer. Do we not templewest? We work very hard to make roads safer. Do we not templewest? We regulate behavior in an automobile, have increasingly strict rules for licensing and harsher penalties for driving impaired. Do we not Templewest? Do we not attempt to recognize the danger of automobiles and regulate them for safety, templewest? If any of that is true, then why in the "F" can't we apply the same logic to devices whose sole purpose is to be used against a human being in order to kill or disable them, templewest? I'll tell you why, templewest. Conservatives have a strange fetish for guns and safety. Until we disengage the sexual component from the conservatives fascination with guns and their abnormal preoccupation with their fear, we will make no progress with weapons in this country. Disengage the "Sexual Component"? The same could be said for the Left's attempt to de-masculate American Society by encouraging a unisex, everybody is same ideology, where as Lesbians = Men minus the physical Penis. Which of course is rubbish. Women in combat= bad idea. And cars can end up in the wrong hands too. How many drunk undocumented, unlicensed Mexicans do you need to see kill innocents behind the wheel? The mainstream Left has already abandoned the Gun issue. The extreme Left idealogues are wasting their breath. Move on.

And Conservatism, at its core, is a reaction to the fear of change. And conservatives are terrified right now. I don't care what other liberals think. I think our gun culture is stupid and dangerous.

Was the boat designed to kill the Marine? No. If you would pay attention instead of just reflexively arguing you would know that I never said anything about banning guns in general. Guess I should check with Bill to see if I can use the word "general" as it is a military term. Just what is your point. I advocate keeping all guns out of the hands of those with mental, drug or booze problems. In addition, there should be some limitations on the kinds of weapons we can have. Go back and read templewest's post about banning cars. You will see my point. It is that firearms are designed to kill. Cars are not.
