Gun manufacturers and enthusiasts have been insisting that guns are far less insidious than the liberals would have us believe. Recent FBI and CDC statistics seem to bear their positions out.
If you take the number of people killed in mass shootings from 2000 through 2013, that's 418. That compares to 800 deaths by bicycle in 2010 alone, or 26,009 by falling in 2010 alone. Since you have to have a permit in this country to own a gun, it naturally follows that you should be required to have a permit to ride a bike or climb a ladder. Or, maybe they should outlaw bikes and ladders; who do we blame for them not doing that?
Now, if you're carrying a gun and holding a ladder while riding your bike... well then, you're really asking for it.
