    500+ shootings

    Your figure is off by two orders of magnitude, it’s ~48k gun deaths, including suicides (for 2022).

    So about 5k more than your car accident figure.

    And it’s odd to me you’re arguing the license angle; are you advocating for a licensing system like there are for cars, like written and applied tests a citizen must pass before gun ownership?
