Gun violence is an nonissue in this country, we have much bigger fish to fry. Suicides are going to happen no matter what form is used, lumping them in with homicides is lying.http://26t4l93f9dhe439yxm286lpv.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/Graph-2.png
Another issue that gets less attention is how many people die from firearms accidentally. Again, the U.S. has much higher rates of unintentional death from firearms compared to other countries.

I was talking about accidents. We have a much higher accidental death rate than other countries. That makes it a problem.
We have the most guns in the world......so of course we have more accidents, the same way the country with the most cars will have the most car accidents....
we had 320,000,000 million guns in private hands in 2013......
505 accidental gun deaths....
Car deaths ...about 35,000......
drownings.....over 3,000.....
You mean 586. So more guns equals more innocent deaths. Thanks for clearing that up.
