Gun mad.
Fewer than half the US states have laws which hold gun holders responsible for preventing children obtaining guns.
Each year in the US 2000 children are expelled from school for brining guns to school.
Firearm deaths of children under 15 in the US is 12 times greater than 25 other OECD countries.
While Australia and the US have, per-capita, similar levels of crime, lethal violence is very much higher in the US.
In the US the murder of a family member is three times more likely in homes with guns than those without.
But still the NRA will attack anybody who seeks to impose sane limits on access to guns and responsible gun ownership.
