There are around 500,000 deaths in the US per year as a direct result of smoking. Compared to probably 30,000 from guns. So although guns grab the headlines, more people die from second hand smoke than guns.

Last time a "machine gun" was used in a shooting? ??

I know a person who is licensed to have automatic firearms....It's not an easy license to get and it's work to keep.
