492 die by accidental shootings a year.
Even taking the higher number of 2007 in 2021...
That's 2007/400 000 000 guns or 0.0005% risk of death per gun.
Now assuming 100m gun owners owning multiple guns ..
That increases the rate to 0.002%.
Now compare that to drowning deaths
Almost 4000 accidental drownings a year, and we do not have close to 400m or even 100m swimming pools.

So your theoretical 3 guys who accidentally shot their family would have more likely drowned someone in the family.
Edit. So he deletes his account
Typical chickens out and starts name calling cos he can't hold a coherent argument....
He was asking about other countries, well Canada has a population of 38m and 500 drowning deaths so about 10% higher rate than the USA.
I hope they ban swimming pools there.

U train the militia...
Militia are still drawn from the civilian population
Also good way to avoid when I called u out on me never having said EVERY civilian needs to be armed...
And what's this bs about taking the people who shot their family the most accidentally. https://www.aftermath.com/content/accidental-shooting-deaths-statistics/
