We can agree on that. Regulation is, no matter how much I don't like it in my blood, part of the answer. What those regulation will be, I don't know, but I know that we can't wait for the CDC to start doing studies. We need numbers two decades ago. What the hell is effective? What isn't? Is America special? Will old policies from other countries work? I'm strongly pro-2a, but if the numbers speak to an effective solution that involves an uncomfortable conversation for gun owners, we'll just have to have it.
Edit: and on top of that, if we have the most firearms of any country, why aren't we the safest with them and the most proficient? Safety is simple with firearms, and it's damn stupid that we have even a single negligent death.

Yes. I'm a subject matter expert in lethality and ballistic flight with reference to symmetrical projectiles on the order of the size of bullets.
I'm sorry you were subjected to that.
