Archie, very nice try but the murder rate in the U.S. has nothing to do with the number of guns we own.  Three ways to critically examine this using logic and reason that demonstrate your flawed thinking.  First is to examine the microcosm experience in areas of the U.S. that have signficant gun restrictions like Washington, DC or Chicago.  Exact opposite of your thesis.  Second is to examine other countries with very high gun ownership such as Israel.  Exact opposite of your thesis.  Third is to examine other countries with restrictive gun laws like Mexico or Trinidad & Tobago.  Exact opposite of your thesis.  You see Archie, the existence of guns have nothing to do with the violence in the U.S.  That an inanimate object like a gun or a knife or a machete or a baseball bat is used in a violent crime has absolutely nothing to do with the cause of the crime.  I could educate you on the socioeconomic and cultural reasons but that's for another post.

So you are once again wrong but thanks for driving by. Its always fun to skewer you with logic and reason.  Let me suggest a very comprehensive book on the subject.  Its called More Guns, Less Crime by John Lott.  Very thorough and detailed examination of the facts instead of the raw emotion when something tragic or criminal happens.
