Here we go:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_politics http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_motor_vehicle_deaths_in_U.S._by_yearYou can get into all kinds of niches like "handgun violence", more broad "gun murders", and "accidental shootings", but together it was about 12,000 gun deaths for 2007.
Car deaths were about 37,000 for 2008,
And 33,000 for 2009.
So auto deaths are about 3 to 4 times the number of gun deaths. And I didn't see the number, but elsewhere I saw that 2011 had the lowest number of auto deaths in decades.
The point being, cars are statistically more dangerous than guns. Which I believe was Pariah's point.
