Charles,

>Statistically, since the tragedy Friday over 100 people - including probably some cute kids, will be killed by drunk drivers. 2011 was considered a good year when the total dipped under 10,000 for the first time.

I find it a bad taste and a very poor excuse to say that it is ok that the US won't do anything one the conditions of gun related crimes because there is another even greater problem. Every death that can be avoided is one too many and there should be put the effort into doing so.

Besides that, in the US are arround 28.000, twentyeightthousand !!! gun related deaths EVERY YEAR. I can't see how on earth you can ignore that.
