In the US (population c. 298.5m) there were an estimated 16,137 homicides in
2004 (FBI, 2006a) - a rate of about 5.4 per 100,000. Of these, 10,654 were
carried out with guns (FBI, 2006b).

How many people died in car crashes in 2004?

How many people died from tobacco and alcohol related issues in 2004?

How many people died from weight-related issues in 2004?

If we're looking at banning stuff because people are dying, let's at least
save more lives by banning cars, tobacco, alcohol, and fat people.
