Thanks to the good folks at GunNuttery ... BEHOLD!

I'm unconvinced: at about 3 per 100,000, our firearm-homicide rate is 10-30 times the rate in western democracies including most of Europe and Australia, all of which have some kind of firearm control policy; this fact alone suggests to me that the right to carry offers pretty weak protection by comparison. And then there's gun-related suicide - about triple the murder rate.
For me, the key policy question is: is the unrestricted right to carry worth the deaths of these thousands of innocents each year? Just sayin'...
Yes, it is.
