More die from warfare or from gunfire?

It's close but when you count up the casualties from all our wars going back to the Revolution, you get 1,171,177, according to PolitiFact.com. And adding up those from gunfire since 1968, 45 years ago, the count is 1,384,171. Note that the latter number counts not only homicides but suicides and accidents as well.
