You seem to wish now to change the scope of discussion from not just murders, but to other "firearm-related problem(s) in society".

No, I don't seem any such thing -- not even to a blind pig in a snowstorm.

This has been very germane to the discussion of assault weapons bans because invariably the "10,000 murders a year" keeps being thrown out for justification.

That's nice. Something to do with me, is it?

You seem to be making the assertion that rifles are used for other bad things besides murder at a rate alarming enough to warrant restrictions on them.

Do I? Got any data to support your assertion?

Can you take a look at the various news reports in the thread I linked to, and tell me what the rifles in question were being used for?

Itemized list, if you would.
