100 people die every day from prescription drugs.
I'm not quite sure what your point is...about 99% of the people who died of prescription drugs took them voluntarily. About 99% of the people who died from gunshot wounds did not do so voluntarily. I will admit that stupidity was probably involved in a vast majority of both cases, but other than that...

Those drug deaths are almost all self-inflicted. The gun deaths were mostly not. I suppose you would have me believe that gunshot victims merely OD'd on intracranial lead.100 people die every day from prescription drugs.

People die every day. You can't legislate or regulate stupid...guns or no guns.

A discerning debater might see a difference between "people die every day" and "thousands of people are needlessly murdered by gunfire everyday". The government has had a long history of legislating laws that curb stupidity. Car registration, driver's licenses, alcohol consumption by minors are just a few. Seat belts laws, a war on cigarette smoking, the Clean Air and Water act seem like a few other laws that seem to help us all live a healthier life. What's the matter with a few more regulations that try to curb the amount of lethal lead projectiles spewed at people on a daily basis?
Just because it's a difficult problem, doesn't mean we can't ratchet back the insanity just a notch or two.
