Why not tackle top two causes of U.S. deaths?

Did you ever notice how all these mass shootings are committed by people that are not supposed to have a gun, committed in a gun free zone -- except one instance since 1950?

So now as before, you still want to take guns away from "legal, lawful, gun owners." Good luck with that.

I don't know of any lawful gun owners that will give their guns up peacefully. The Constitution of the United States and lawful gun owners are the only reasons you are free.

If you want to live like they do in countries such as China, North Korea, Iran, Syria, then please feel free to leave. Actually the entire U.S. will be just like Baltimore and Chicago is right now.

Why do the politicians want to ban the No. 3 reason of death in this country? Why don't you go after No. 1 and No. 2 first??

Are you wondering what No. 1 and #2 is?

No. 3 is guns, caused by gangs and criminals, not law-abiding citizens. No. 2 is the flu. No. 1 is automobiles, and that's just counting cars not trucks.

You want the numbers? No. 3 guns, 26,000 per year. No. 2 the flu, 36,000 per year. No. 1 cars, over 43,000 per year, on average.

I don't know why I put facts in my letter, because liberals don't care about facts. Here's another fact for you. If you believe your president about noplace on earth has more violent crime than the U.S., then listen up. In 2015 alone, France has suffered more casualties, killings, and injuries from public mass shootings than the U.S. has suffered during Obama's entire presidency.

You want numbers? 508 in France to 424 here, including San Bernadino.
