Yeay for the Second Amendment

We can all buy as many guns as we want.  It’s in the constitution


From YAHOO Answers:
How many people are killed by guns in the United States?
It is illegal to have a gun in Korea. so there is little possibility of Korean being shot by guns. I’d like to know how many people are killed by guns in the U. S annually. Have a nice day.

After some searching, these are the most recent statistics I’ve found:

Number of people killed by guns in the United States in 2004: 29,569

Percentage breakdown by US gun deaths in 2004, by type:

* 16,750 suicides (56% of all U.S. gun deaths)
* 11,624 homicides (40%)
* 649 unintentional shootings, 311 from legal intervention and 235 from undetermined intent (4%).

That averages out to 81 people dying everyday from guns. And also some gun ownership stats:

More than 100 million handguns are owned in the United
States primarily for self‐defense, and 3.5 million people have permits to carry concealed handguns for protection. Currently, the population of the U.S. is around 300 million people.

People are reported killed everyday on the internet.  Today it was four policemen in Washington State.  Even killing a president does not change our ways.  Feeling Alone and Feeling Lonley just buy a gun to feel better. 

Must I buy a gun to protect myself from crazy people?
