    Well, every birth inevitably leads to a death, whilst guns might but they’re not guaranteed to.

    So obviously, you need to keep track of the most deadly kind of people, pregnant women, more so than a not quite as deadly kind like gun owners.

    True, the case can be made than a single gun can result in multiple deaths whilst a birth will only ever result in a single death, but none the less the statistics don’t lie and they show that a lot more deaths can be traced back to a birth than they can to gun ownership.

      I once watched a woman walk into a supermarket just openly being pregnant. Fortunately she behaved, because some of the other folks were concealed pregnant.

      Many people who are born go on to have children of their own. So a single pregnancy can lead to generations and generations of deaths!

        I read a study recently saying that 100% of murderers were born. So that’s another vector for births leading to multiple deaths.
