    And, yes, each one of those 22,000 deaths individually is a tragedy, but that also means 473,978,000 guns sat around collecting dust

    So if a gun isn’t being used to kill someone it is collecng dust?

      Not necessarily, it could be used for hunting, or target practice, but any gun that isn’t actively being used is, yeah, kind of just sitting around somewhere.
