Jason Rzepka is going to work on solving that American problem, the one where people with guns kill people… He writes: Consider that: 86 Americans die at the end of a gun every day. That’s 31,000 Americans PER YEAR. It’s gotten so bad that next year gun fatalities are expected to overtake traffic accidents as the #1 non-medical cause of death in the United States. More than 280 Americans are shot EVERY SINGLE DAY! Americans are 20 times more likely to be murdered with a gun than people in other developed countries. Gun trafficking in the U.S. carries the same penalties as trafficking chickens or livestock. However, on the flip side, in states that have background checks for all handgun sales: 38% fewer women are shot to death by their partners 39% fewer on-duty police officers are shot and killed 48% fewer people commit suicide with guns weliveinbrooklyn.tumblr/post/87690505429/why-im-saying-goodbye-to-mtv-joining-the-fight
