Considering the NRA kills nobody, it's a stupid claim. And, if you're talking about indirect contributors to death, they'd get far more bang for buck donating money to alcohol companies. After all, 40% of all violent crimes are committed by people under the influence of alcohol and 30% of all fatal car crashes are the result of alcohol. And pretty much every sports riot ever has involved alcohol.

88,000 deaths are annually attributed to excessive alcohol use

Roughly 33,000 deaths are caused by gun violence annually.

Honestly, I expected the gun violence number to be higher.

And most deaths are caused by handguns by far. The more ridiculous semi-automatics that people want to ban cause virtually no deaths.

Huh. I somehow feel like we have bigger fish to fry than gun control, like Americans' poor eating habits. As silly as the NRA is with their little killsurance.

Not that I'm cosher with all the gun show loopholes or anything.
