Animals, sadly.

Actually, I rounded the numbers off considerably. We can all breathe a sigh of relief.

The top was only 39,595 in '93. Which means in something like thirteen months the casualty rate equaled both Korea and Vietnam. Well done. And all of it so duds with no other source of pride might strut about with their synthetic manhood extenders like Wyatt and his Buntline.

I wonder why the entire world is missing out on this cracked need to "bear arms." The civilized world has an opportunity to add thousands to their casualty figures each year, and they're letting it pass.
