Incidentally, as many people die in the US in car crashes as get shot. Should they ban cars whilst they're at it?

Not a valid analogy - the car's sole purpose isn't to kill.

Perhaps not, but they seem to be pretty efficient at it...  ::)

Besides, I would wager that most American gun owners either hunt or own a weapon for deterrence or defence rather than to actually kill anything... the sound of a round being chambered is probably enough to deter most ne'erdowells, and nothing says "Opps off" better than the cruch of a shotgun.
