CDC

So I was goofing off looking at the CDC for death statistics.

I need serious help, I know.

Here is something interesting:

Deaths from Guns 14,000
Deaths from Alcohol 70,000
Deaths from Cigarettes 470,000

That, I think, specifically for 2009.

So we don't need more gun control, we need more Alcohol and Tobacco control.
Perspective: 450,000 Americans were killed in WWII. (Internet Research)
