@samharrisorg OK but you highlighted few ACCIDENTS with guns compared to cars. There would be a lot more if used 1h30 min per day like cars. -
@vroum_ninou No, I was comparing the fatalities on both sides. Cars are so dangerous that we can't help killing each other with them. -
@SamHarrisOrg@vroum_ninou what are your thoughts on the idea of requiring insurance policies for guns as we do cars? -
@MO_Huggles
@SamHarrisOrg@vroum_ninou What would be insured? -
@dadsports123@SamHarrisOrg@vroum_ninou damage done with the gun. Just like it does with cars. -
@MO_Huggles
@SamHarrisOrg@vroum_ninou no one knows who owns what. The best way to reduce gun violence is to reduce the number of guns... -
@dadsports123@SamHarrisOrg@vroum_ninou The same could be said about cars too. What if owning a gun without insurance incurred fines? -
@MO_Huggles
@SamHarrisOrg@vroum_ninou I think it is a practical problem but anything that makes gun ownership more onerous or makes people

Why is suicide a danger? Guns are the most effective means of committing suicide.

@SamHarrisOrg S. Korea has 2nd highest suicide rate in world (WHO), but ranks #148 in gun ownership. Clearly, access alone is not problem.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
