What I don't understand is why people care about firearm related anything when it's such a small portion of what kills people every year. The medical industry as a whole unintentionally kills something crazy like 400,000 people a year. Wrong medications, misused prescriptions, screw ups in treatment.
Cancer kills 600,000 Heart disease another 600,000 Respiratory diseases 150,000 Accidents 150,000 (of which some are firearm related) Stroke 130,000 Alzheimers 90,000 Diabetes 80,000 Influenza and pneumonia 55,000 Nephritis (No clue what that is) 48,000 Suicide, (of which some are with firearms) 43,000
I just don't see how such a statistically insignificant number is such a hot button with people
You're also forgetting Hospital Acquired Infections... MERSA being one.... some nasty ****
