Oblivion, it's you who isn't getting the point and I don't have time right now to give you a huge responce to your argument. My whole point was that gun control lowers homicides from firearms. You're going off topic and state that you're a light sleeper and would be able to react quickly with a burglary, but not everyone is like that. Like I said before, most thiefs want your valuable stuff rather than killing you. The best solution is a burglar alarm.

I cannot remeber where I got the information on family shootings and roadside rage (I'm seriously not lying! I don't even know exactly how to provide links to sites), but it occurs. Do I need absolute and concrete evidence for you to belive me? A guy gets into a fight with a family member, he gets so angry and shoots and kills them without thinking. What on earth makes you think that hasn't happened? I know there's been dozens of those. Take faith. It's that simple and I think we should leave it at that.

I know there are many other things that kill much more people, but gun control lowers homicide from firearms. The less deaths the better of course and most of them aren't accidental.
