I've seen guns waved unsafely. I have seen knives, chainsaws, cars, tractors, heavy equipment, ho coals, and beer bottles brandished in unsafe manners. Guess which of those kills the most people. Quick hint, it ain't the guns.

Granted, there are no shootings without guns, but the statistics show that there very clearly ARE killings without guns. Furthermore, the relationship between the presence of guns and the prevalence of illegal murders is unclear at best.
