"Hmm, yes I see. The atombomb over Nagasaki and Hiroshima didn't kill people, it was the one dropping the bomb who killed people."

You're not following. Civilians tend to stay the hell -away- from warzones when possible, and anyone who is blindly running around one tends to have problems aside from mines.

EDIT: speaking of which, I have to ask again why it's always Hiroshima that pops up? Why not, oh, the firebombing of the other Japanease cities, or the bombings of various European cities?

Once the shooting stops, then you have the problem with the mines. Because unlike other weapons they just sit there.

"(In US many says " it's not guns whoo kill people, people kill people", yeah, five year olds who find's their dad's gun!)"

Total number of deaths in the US:
2,391,399
Deaths by firearms, all causes:
28663

One percent; the majority of people killed were in the 15-29 range for men and 30-44 for women. Not exactly an epidepmic of 5- year olds getting killed.
