Not Really, but useless info for Jeoprdy

But I did get the 2004 ones
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gun deaths:    Violent                        29,174
                       Leagal Intervention    347
                       Unintentional               730
                       Undetermined              232
                       Total                          30,136



Vehicle Deaths:
                        All                             47,603

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I got these off of "Centers for Disease Control and Prevention"  website.
Took me a while to get it done.
Not  whole lot of room for "Cars kill more than guns" debate.

I think "Legal Intervention" is LEO and firing squad, but I dont think they caculated in the LEO's against Dogs

I just did a speach in Communications about gun saftey and used that "730 unintentional deaths" stat. Alot of people looked surprised the number was so low. However, EricRCN's (I think thats his name on this board-- hes the guy who shot himself in the hand with a glock .40) pictures were an interesting reaction to open with.
