News about GEWar and a depository for useless stuff that I find on the web. It's just like a Mini Mall!

" you gotta watch them people from Belize, they'll shank ya"
Found a great site http://www.nationmaster.com that has a mortality statistic page. What are mortality statistics you may ask? You can see the death rate per million population for handguns, rifles & shotguns, beaten to death, assault by sharp objects, (hahaha remember Monty Python and the pointed stick) knife, sword, or dagger, (thats where the post title comes from) even death by acne (who knew?). Anyway, I guess my point is we have a lot of people in the USofA, so it just stands to reason that we have more wackos than other places. It's a shame that we as a nation are ostracized internationally for our stance on personal firearm ownership. Gun control is not the answer, law abiding citizens aren't out shooting their neighbors. It is those who break the laws, or have mental disorders, that shoot innocent people. And yes it is a shame when people (especially children) are accidentally shot by weapons that were not properly secured, IMO any person who leaves an unlocked loaded weapon where a child could access it should be held criminally liable.
