44,000 Americans are killed by guns every year

The real question is how will y’all react when a Dem POTUS takes this precedent by Trump to declare gun crime a national emergency. Or Climate Change.

They are both in the Constitution, and doing something about border security only means observing Constitutional mandate. Not so much for gun control.

ETA: To the OP. I regret that I have but one up vote for you, sir.

Not a national emergency and can't be fixed anyway as long as India and China are allowed to pollute the hell out of the atmosphere. The climate has always changed throughout time regardless of emissions.

I have around 20 guns. Not one has killed anybody. They are left unattended by themselves all day. Maybe they are faulty?

Do you even Constitution bro? Illegals crossing the border do not have a right to be a US citizen as I have the right to own a firearm.

If you do the math on that, that's still 10 fewer per day on average than the number posted in the OP from opioid deaths.

And, like other posters have said, not including suicides at the very least would be prudent.

You do realize that the USA has significantly reduced pollution (out put) over the past 50 years? We are doing our part, the rest of the world needs to do theirs.

How many of those deaths are happening in an area where those firearms are illegal?

Well 40100 are killed by vehicle crashes. So can we ban vehicles. After all, if it saves one life it’s worth it.

False!

But according to the CDC about 650,000 are killed in America every year by the "right to choose".
