far more people are shot in . . .

1. drive bys
2. gang turf wars
3. "woman troubles"
4. "drug deal gone bad"

than in serial/mass killings.

almost all shooting deaths happen in the inner city, with handguns. not in suburban schools with a rifle in the hands of some mental patient.

@SusanInFlorida 5) Suicides.

@trollslayer you are correct. my omission was an oversite. there are inadequate records kept. but some statisticians are convinced that suicides outnumber murders (all weapons types) by a wide margin.

i personally know of 4 suicides. and only 1 murder victim. but then again i don't live in an urban area.
@SusanInFlorida good point. You cannot discuss solutions. You post long evasions and quibble endlessly, so guns. Typical American.

@Roundandroundwego so - no debate allowed, except by those claiming they've got "the solution"? You'd be a hoot on jury duty, no doubt.
@SusanInFlorida guns are always present or there's no shooting.
