So which is the straw man, the war on terror or that the US has more gun deaths then any other western nation per capita?
If they spaced those 3000 deaths out over the course of 10 years, we probably wouldn't have invaded. But attacking our city with our planes and killing our people in the thousands kinda pisses us off.
