Over 30,000 Americans a year die due to guns. Roughly more than half of that is due to gun violence.
This year alone there are already just under 12000 violent gun deaths in America. (almost four times the number killed on 9/11 in just over 9 months)
Yet when a fraction of those numbers, like a really small fraction, are killed by terrorists, the country goes apeshit and pours billions & billions into fighting it.
When over 400,000 have died with a gun being used (homicides, suicides, and accidents) since 2001, the country does squat to bring those numbers down.
But hey, lets beef up the military and bans on travelers and all this other stuff when only a few 1000 have been killed in the same time by terrorists.
