Comparing accidents to intentional acts?
Comparing accidents to intentional acts? Collateral damage and head chopping all the same? The US military and ISIS all the same? What about Intention?

4015 teens will die this year because of texting and driving.
Can one of the Liberals here please explain why these teenagers aren't marching on every major city demanding saving these teenagers????
When has the 2nd Amendment ever kept Big Government in check, at all?

errc saysWhen has the 2nd Amendment ever kept Big Government in check, at all?
Been over this. Battle of Athens, Civil Rights Movement, etc.
The reason there are so few instances is because Big Government knows it can't do tyrannical shit in advance.
FortWayne saysLeft just hates 2nd amendment, it gets in a way of their liberal big government agenda. Rest is not relevant. If they wanted to save lives, they'd be anti abortion.... but well you know.
So I don't buy their bs about saving lives, they don't care.

Now what?
The latest deranged fuck used his father's pump-action shotgun and .38 revolver. Two most "non-assault weapons" out there. Now what?
Why not just ban guns and when people get upset about it, just offer thoughts and prayers ?
Sounds like a special kind of dead beat parenting on a nationwide religious scale to me.

Why not just ban guns
Does that include all of law enforcement too? If so, who are you going to call to protect you when the next thug breaks into your house or robs you on the street?
Except LE has no duty to protect an individual from harm. Per SCOTUS ruling no less. Weird but true.
They were so distraught and upset it wasn't a AR15, but a shotgun. I guess in their depressed state, they just combined the two together to make their own version.
One side focuses on easy civilian access to military-style guns, such as the AR-15 semi-automatic rifle. The other focuses on the individuals who perpetrate these acts, in particular their mental health.
In the most deadly 12 mass shootings in the US in the past decade, a total of 270 people were killed. In 8 of these shootings, an AR-15 style semi-automatic rifle was used.

So, in NINE years, 270 people have died in mass shootings, in 66% of those shootings, a AR15 was used. So approximately 180 people have died from a AR15 over 9 years.
Doing the math, approximately 20 a YEAR die from being shot by an AR15.
Now lets compare that to distracted driving by teens:
Teens Texting and Driving Facts and Statistics:
94% of teens acknowledge that texting while driving is dangerous
11 teens die everyday as a result of texting while driving.
Teen drivers are 4x more likely than adults to get into car accidents while texting or talking on a cell phone.
One out of every 4 car accidents in the U.S. is caused by texting and driving.
391,000 were injured in motor vehicle crashes involving distracted drivers.

So, in TWO DAYS, the same number of teens die from texting and driving that die from being shot by a AR15 in a YEAR.
Chew on that for a second.
4015 teens will die this year because of texting and driving.

A better solution is to ban cell phones and driving until a kid is 21. Wouldn't that save a hell of lot more lives?
