Not the words, the logic behind the sarcasm. I want to know if Tarv thinks that:
A) Less guns = less gun deaths, but not violent deaths overall (i.e. I can't find any guns but these knives sure are sharp)
-or-
B) Less guns = less gun deaths = less violent deaths overall(i.e. Man I would kill that ******* if I had a gun, but since I don't, and have no imagination whatsoever, I will instead go take a nap)
-or-
C) Something else I am missing.
Then you came in out of left field with your ************ comparison which had nothing to do with my post.

(I would say USA, England, Canada, Germany maybe but it's upto you)
Would you agree thats the following should provide reasonable conclusions?
% of gun owners per head of population
people killed intentionally per 100,000 people
No of violent crimes per 100,000 people
No of reported crimes per 100,000 people
I think if higher gun % correlates with the other three it is reasonable to conclude that accses to guns increases crimes.
i don't think you can disagree with the statement that" more guns availible makes it less safe for people" if that is the case.
And err i think it will show B if your interested, but i'm willing to be proved wrong.
