While in case of guns I can't say the same (moar debate), cell phones do not kill people, the idiots using them in wrong places do.
My proposition: People kill other people, always have, and probably always will, regardless of armament.
You got some 'splaining to do, Fat Al.

He's from Europe. Even though they've had guns for centuries they still haven't got their heads around the fact that modern technology has largely stopped guns from killing all by themselves. :p
That said, guns make it hella easier to kill by mistake. Pain in the arse that is because guns are fun.

That, and cell phones don't kill. Nor do people will cell phones kill. People with cell phones while not paying attention to driving kill.

Old cell phones make the same kind of radiation as new cell phones. And they make the same kind of radiation that whizzes through our heads all the time anyway. So if they cause brain cancer it would have to be a pretty specific factor that does it.

Yeah I could understand power line transformers, maybe sticking your head in a really old t.v. set to long, or sleeping with the microwave, but how much data wave damage would a cell phone put off? You'd think an old computer monitor would do just as much damage if not more. :D
Mom and Dad always told me to sit at least 6 feet from the T.v. set but I never listend.

Well, either the TV radiation thing is total bullshit or radar operators and old computer users are screwed... :D
