I believe you're referring to rifles alone. According to this pro-guns article (which evidently counts on its readership being stupid enough not to actually click and read through the table it provides), for every person murdered with a knife or cutting instrument in the USA in 2013, eight were murdered with a gun.
For every SINGLE person stabbed to death in America, EIGHT are shot to death. Of those, over HALF are murdered by handguns. You asked where we draw the line? Maybe with scientific evidence. All reputable evidence clearly dictates that America needs far, far greater restrictions on firearms of all kinds. Edit - Modified the title, so that it is not misleading. |
oh my mistake i know that it is established fact that knives kill more than guns its just that its rifles in particular
oh and i disagree with your last point because again where do we draw the line if we state that the concern is the lives of citizens
do we stop alcohol from being produced because it causes deaths, rapes etc? for example
"which evidently counts on its readership being stupid enough not to actually click and read through the table it provides)"
how is that evident? it states right there in the heading that its reffering to rifles
