Better yet.....track all politicians. You’ll be further ahead.

Uhh..while there are some AK-like rifles in .22 (notably by GSG), the typical AK caliber is 7.62x39. This round is comparable in power to a 30-30 deer rifle (Winchester Model 94, others).

- 31,000 gun deaths in a year
- almost 19,000 of those were suicides
- of the 12,000 other gun deaths, 80 % are Gang related.
- so, basically 2,400 gun deaths (that we care about)

- less than 3 % of all legally purchased firearms are ever used in a crime.

We DO NOT have a gun problem. We DO have a criminal misrepresentation of the truth to achieve a unconstitutional objective with the full support of our elected representatives and a complicit media problem.

Funny part of the story is you can buy and own so-called assault firearms in Russia and Ukraine there they are made.

Here is a Russian gunshop you can order online:

[Why So Serious]

Your argument is not valid about Drs. and cars, but I get your point. Here is a better way to look at it. In the last 100 years there have been between 84 and 98 million people killed BECAUSE of gun control. History has proven that when government takes guns from people those people tend to get killed by government.

Let's Ban Doctors, Cars, and Knives before We Ban AK-47s

Don't forget baseball bats, motorcycles, chainsaws, and bricks, and above all...currupt politicians!! Of course, if we banned all currupt politicians, there wouldn't be anybody in Washington, D.C.

Why don’t we just ban Self-defense denial (gun-free) zones?

If you can use it for an Assault, it’s an Assault Weapon.

It’s an easy way for the gun-grabbers to get around that pesky 2nd amendment – just label firearms as something else vague and voila!

No more pesky 2nd amendment.
