Well, every birth inevitably leads to a death, whilst guns might but they're not guaranteed to.

So obviously, you need to keep track of the most deadly kind of people, pregnant women, more so than a not quite as deadly kind like gun owners.

True, the case can be made than a single gun can result in multiple deaths whilst a birth will only ever result in a single death, but none the less the statistics don't lie and they show that a lot more deaths can be traced back to a birth than they can to gun ownership.

I once watched a woman walk into a supermarket just openly being pregnant. Fortunately she behaved, because some of the other folks were concealed pregnant.

A single birth can result in multiple deaths in the situation of murderer being born, so you might actually be right.

Hitler was born, if I remember correctly.

Yeah, but without all those other births those deaths would not have happenned, so ultimatelly it's all the fault of pregnant women.

Being born is always a death sentence!!!

Many people who are born go on to have children of their own. So a single pregnancy can lead to generations and generations of deaths!

I read a study recently saying that 100% of murderers were born. So that's another vector for births leading to multiple deaths.
