Regardless of where people stand on this issue we need to stop and do a true assessment of the problem, more specifically the math.
Population in US: 311,591,917 (U.S. Census Bureau)
Approx. Deaths from firearms (including suicides): 30,000 (http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/docs/wh_now_is_the_time_fu...)
Population killed 0.0000962%
With approx. 70,000,000 gun owners in the US are we really willing to let the deviant behavior of 0.00009% of the population determine the course of action against 1/5 our population?
30,000 looks like a huge amount, until you look at it contextually. Stop the action against Gun Control, this is a extreme reaction to a complex situation. We need to study the issue and RESPOND, not REACT to sensationalism and pseudo-science.
