Subject: Gun deaths in America

So, what are us gun loving Americans going to do about the astronomical rate of gun related deaths? Read the following from "The International Journal of Epidemiology" 1998 Apr;27(2):214-221.

"Of the world's 36 wealthiest nations, the U.S. gun death rate for 1994 was the highest at 14.24 per 100,000 people. Asian countries had the lowest rates followed by England and Wales. In 1994, the U.S. accounted for 45 percent of the 88,649 gun deaths in those 36 nations.
