Law-abiding citizens use guns to defend themselves against criminals over 2.4 million times every year -- or 6,575 times a day. This means that each year, firearms are used 60 times MORE OFTEN to protect the lives of honest citizens than to take lives. - National Safety Council
According to the CDC, the total number of gun deaths by homicide, suicide and accidents in 2004 was around 29,000.
Now, keep in mind that the gun was only the means of violence. In 2004 there were only 1,100 accidental deaths from guns in the US, meaning that if guns were not a factor, there would still be arond 27,000 violence-related deaths and suicides which occured by using other means.
No one was ever killed by a gun. A gun is a tool utilized by a person who can think and make decisions. It is an inanimate object, like a car, a knife, or an axe, which all are also used as a means commit crime.
Logically, you would have to outlaw cars before you can outlaw guns, because they are responsible for way many more deaths than a gun.

None. I find that the majority of the time they are killed by the bullets.

If you think a gun doesn t kill then I suggest the next time you go bear hunting that you use a sling shot and see how well that works out for you.

Zero. They were not killed by the gun, they were killed by the person who pulled the trigger...
