I want to go on record saying I agree with the idea that more control of guns is necessary, and I use this statistic to beat into my father's thick skull that guns are a problem in the USA. But I think a better intro into the problem is Vox. http://www.vox.com/2015/10/3/9444417/gun-violence-united-states-america http://www.vox.com/2015/10/3/9444417/gun-violence-united-sta... There are a LOT of decent arguments people in the US use to keep guns in the hands of their citizens. The most compelling one for me is that if you want to take my guns then lets have a plan in place to severely reduce the number of guns police have. That resonates with me on a personal level but I'm not expecting the police to give up all guns until results are shown on both sides. I can only think of Swatting in the USA. If I can prank call the police and they swat my neighbors house how can we say that citizens are the only problem here. http://time.com/2916554/aclu-police-militarized-report-swat-war-comes-home/ http://time.com/2916554/aclu-police-militarized-report-swat-... I use swat teams as an example of the paramilitarization of police that bothers me and is another side of the gun problem in the USA. If they broken into houses with battons and stun guns this would be bad but a different story.
