&gt; Ah yeah the CPRC study that keeps being cited. That study has inherit flaws due to methodology of the biased CPRC here's the Snipes article about it : [https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/united-states-lower-death-shootings/](https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/united-states-lower-death-shootings/) 

There isn't an issue with the study. Just because Europe's violence is more sporadic and deadly, doesn't mean the comparison is invalid. 

&gt;As for your whataboutsim: comparing guns, and device that is designed to kill, to a drinking and driving is misguided at best.  
&gt;  
&gt; I have friends who go to UNCC who could have been shot and killed today so no I'm not using this to further my agenda. I'm doing this because I don't want people who I love to fucking die to an issue which has been addressed appropriately by other developed nations. 

And I've had friends, plural, killed by drunk drivers. Yet I don't go around trying to ban alcohol or increase the drinking age, or any sort of thing like that. I'm glad your friends weren't killed, but you're absolutely using it to further an agenda.
