And the firearm homicides are low compared to the other causes of death.

...damn, tobacco causes more deaths than anything. Yeah I get that guns are not the problem it's the person behind the firearm that holds the responsibility. I personally don't have a problem with guns I just don't understand why there are people that hunt animals with automatic weapons is all, it's not like deer wear Kevlar vests o.O Anyway I saw something about the crime rate in Philadelphia, a mother was saying that she knew of around 20 parents that had lost sons to gang related violence and of that person shot there were numerous violent retaliations. There are reportedly 3 to 4 shootings a week. I get that the media isn't a reliable source of information. I'm not too sure if this is an accurate portrayal of Philadelphia.

Yep it does kill more.
I wish more people would understand that line you just said.
Well you do get a better chance at killing an animal with an automatic gun then a semi automatic gun or a Single shot gun.
Wow, I think Philadelphia is a gun free zone.

So I read that the crime rate in Philadelphia has decreased by 39 percent with only 179 fire arms related deaths in 2015... dependant on the reputable nature of the source of course yet at the time that the report was released it was made to sound more like a war zone. Media misinformation, no surprises there. Yeah but using an automatic weapon, I don't know, perhaps hunting is more of a sport when aim is required as opposed to peppering the prey with bullets? Of course I'm not a hunter so I guess this is more of an opinion than anything. 'A gun behind every blade of grass' yep even the squirrels are packing 😁
