Good morning to a nice rather warm, 47`, rainy spring morn. May the Lord God IAUA bless us with enough this day. I just read, Survey: More Than 1 In 4 Car Crashes Involve Cellphone Use My question to you is why we do not hear a progressive hue and cry to ban cellphones? In 2010, 358 murders were reported involving a rifle while 6,009 were reported involving a handgun; another 1,939 were reported with an unspecified type of firearm.[4] (Wikipedia) Compare the above this to when in 2010, there were an estimated 5,419,000 automobile crashes, killing 32,885 and injuring 2,239,000. (Wikipedia) If the 1 in 4 relationships to cellphones is true then 559, 750 are injured and 8,221 killed in 2010 related to cellphone use as compared to the 358 murdered with rifles of all types, and the hue and cry is to ban Assault Rifles The FBI murder statistics do not differentiate between types of rifles, but consider this. of all the murders in 2012 in America they breaks down like this: 13,636; Hands and Feet 801; Assault Rifles: less than 348.
