South Africa 3740 gun deaths in 2016.South Africa 14071 reported vehicle/road deaths in 2016. ( https://www.arrivealive.co.za/docume...2017.pdf)South Africa 19160 gun deaths in 2015 (https://randfonteinherald.co.za/2378...statistics/)If we take the gun deaths and split it by self defense and legitimate police shootings away from suicide and illegal use of a firearm the numbers will also change.So what is " one of the greatest public health crises of our time” Dr Mohsen Naghavi

Re: Business Tech article repeating GFSA nonesense
I have a fairly long reply to one of the comments...
Long and short is that it is just another anti-gun lobby article...
The only worthwhile statistics are, as always, missing from the article - how many gun related deaths occurred from illegal guns, and how many from legal guns. also missing is how many of the claimed government guns (military and police) is actually in their possession, and how many are missing...
they should also, for completeness, indicate the numbers on gun related violent crimes WHERE THERE WERE NO FATALITIES... C.I.T heists, armed robbery, rape, attempted murder, etc... and state how many of these involved legal, and how many illegal firearms...
I am sure these stats will paint a drastically different picture! But, for the anti gunners, including the legal owners under these statistics serves only their own agendas....
in my humble opinion in any case....
