Don't know where you got your statistics, and I don't know why you think it should be legal to murder anyone who has a criminal conviction on his record, but what number would be enough for you?  I believe there were about 12,000 gun homocides in the US last year.

And why don't you care about the other 70 thousand people who were shot but did not die?

And why don't you care about the hundreds of thousands of aggravated assaults and armed robberies where guns are used but never fired?

And finally, if you were allowed to legally own whatever gun you wanted to, but had to have a license to own them and had to register them would you still consider that "losing your civil rights"?

How many people have to die each year from gun violence before you will agree to something as minor as owner licensing and gun registration?  A hundred thousand?  A million?  Ten million?
