Perspective: Gun related murders

[C_Clayton_Jones]

According to the FBI, 2012-2017, an average of 9636 people are murder per year with a firearm - 26.4 per day.

On the Monday after the start of daylight Savings, heart attacks jump 24% over the daily average.
The US sees about 790k heart attacks per day, for 2164/day
Of all heart attacks, about 4.7% are fatal - 101.7 per day.
An increase of 24% over that 101 is 24.4/day

Thus:
You are about as likely to die of a heart attack caused by Daylight Savings as you are to be murdered with a firearm.

Conclusion:
We need more gun control!!!!

This fails as a confirmation bias fallacy, false comparison fallacy, and an appeal to consequences fallacy – it’s the rightwing sophistry hat trick, well done!

Every life is as important as another. When you do something that saves even one life you should just go ahead and do it.

Your ability to avoid a point is astounding.

With a thread premise this idiotic and wrong, there is no ‘point’ to miss.

You cannot show this to be true.

There is - you simply do not want to address it
