By the way, violent gun deaths are of the lowest percentages of all deaths in the USA. Car accidents, deaths caused by inept doctors, knifing, and even drownings all have a higher rate than guns do. In the CDC's list of leading causes of death in the USA, guns do not even make the list unless you count the last one on the list (suicide) which is not limited to guns.
Number of deaths for leading causes of death:
Heart disease: 597,689
Cancer: 574,743
Chronic lower respiratory diseases: 138,080
Stroke (cerebrovascular diseases): 129,476
Accidents (unintentional injuries): 120,859
Alzheimer's disease: 83,494
Diabetes: 69,071
Nephritis, nephrotic syndrome, and nephrosis: 50,476
Influenza and Pneumonia: 50,097
Intentional self-harm (suicide): 38,364

Some reading material for you http://abolition.e2bn.org/slavery_45.html
You also brought slavery into this. I just gave you another side of the slavery issue. You claimed I owned slaves. "You had your slaves taken away from you." I'm assuming you meant my ancestors. Well none of them were above working class. They could not have afforded slaves. My sister had our family history done. No slave owners that we know of. Have you checked you family history to make sure there were no slave traders among your ancestors?
Welcome to the revolution.

If the punishments fit the crimes better, one might see a little less major crime in the US. One might not see felons being released "early" because of overcrowded jails and prisons. Maybe ANYONE incarcerated in our penal system were in the US illegally should be unceremoniously shipped "right back where (s)he came from", even if it means dropping him/her off in a row boat and giving it a shove into that country's waters. How about our legal system taking a bit more interest in the welfare of the victims rather than advocating for the JUSTLY accused. Perhaps if our legal system didn't take so long to bring people to trial..... IF IF IF IF IF IF IF IF IF IF IF IF IF IF IF
I have no problem with guns. Civilly, they are for protection (NOT aggression), hunting, and marksmanship.
