[quote=spdrun]I’d venture to say that a larger % of car-related injuries are accidents, whereas a larger % of injuries with guns involve an intent to wound or kill. This intent may or may not be justifiable, but it’s there.[/quote]

Spdrun: Never opined as to intent. You should see how many auto-related deaths are a result of impairment due to alcohol and/or drugs and how many gun-related deaths are a result of accident or misadventure.

Might make your “venture” more correct, statistically speaking.
