I did in fact include the almost 500 wounded. I said they were the 90+ % that weren't mortality wounded and would have been a far higher % killed had the killer used a more effective weapon so thankfully he didn't. He would not have had to aim any better he already hit over 500.

An unconstitutional theoretical tax that doubles or triples the cost of a common hunting rifle that is often erroneously called an assault rifle to bias a viewpoint and demonize the opposite side would not have made a difference in any of the cases it had been used.

"Shall not infringe". It is not possible to make it difficult to buy a gun that's just a fact and the baseline for rational debate. Changing the bill of rights is so difficult it just plain will not happen it's a non starter argument.

The examples of plane crashes or hospital infections are to show perspective.

A public outcry caused McDonald's to stop using styrofoam for the big Mac because of disinformation campaign that led the average man on the street to believe that styrofoam was 20% of our land fill when it was 1/2 of 1% (literal statistics not made up hypothetical).

McD used to recycle 80 % of the styrofoam do you think they recycle 80% of the new, improved paper wrap? You'd be in a fantasy world. Ignorant perception caused an increase in the landfill waste. FYI at the same time people were led to believe that 20% of landfill was disposable diapers which also were 0.5%.

The continuous research in hospitals has not slowed MRSA it's almost an epidemic.

People combine statistics to try to take a ludicrously low risk scenario like perched lone gunman and try to make it look common or epidemic when off course almost all gun violence is same-race criminal activity with somebody that already was a criminal with an illegally obtained firearm.

There is a lot done every year from a gun safety perspective but when the focus is misplaced to the low low low risk scenarios like lone madmen with hunting rifles rather than the actual gun crime problems like revolving door jails that put perpetrator right back out into the likes of South Chicago.

A legal gun owner causing havoc is a unicorn. Keep the criminal from the gun because you will never be able to keep the gun from the criminal.
