Anything more than zero shootings is too much? What a ridiculous assertion.

What about deaths from car accidents?

What about deaths from hammer?

Choking on your toothbrush?

Jaywalking?

Infections resulting from not washing hands?

Carbon monoxide?

Your absolutism is dishonest and unhelpful.

Yes, there are too many deaths from all of those things, except possibly the toothbrush thing.

You may be joking about "Infections resulting from not washing hands," but hospital-acquired infections, which can easily come from exactly this, kill something like 100,000 people a year.

And many of these are more highly regulated than guns.
