Yes..sadly. But do you ever hear this debate in context...do you ever hear how sad a situation was, but keep in mind, etc. Do you ever hear a legitimate, adult conversation.

I may have missed them, but all I hear is sensationalism, and attempts to put folks on the defense. I recall my reading these facts, but NEVER hearing anything about them anywhere. And when alluded to, you are put on the defensive (as I am feeling)

I simply asked a question about what folks think about those stats...I have heard about the NRA alleged and untrue movement, stand your ground, etc.

Locking of guns are covered by law...federal and state (in 23 states).....what is our point of these sensational stories if it has no point EXCEPT ..for what ?

Let us discuss much more strict punishment for DUI, which does factually kill many...let us make a headline for every crash that kills children because of DUI. Those stories are presented in a much different light !
