At the end of the day we have to figure at how much risk we (we in this case being US citizens) are willing to take. Thousands of people die from driving every year, but clearly society has decided that the benefits of driving far out weight the risks. So we clearly are ok with death on some level. But there's a tangible benefit to driving...and movies.
What's the benefit of assault rifles again? That we can protect ourselves on the off-chance the King of England invades?
