In fact you missed several interresting point in my stupid analogy. These point are common to both situations.

1) it's stupid to say that gun have nothing to do in dead by guns. They have at least some influence on it. Dead by real laser saber per year is 0.
2) both situation use an interesting stupid idea: compare dead in one year with the total boobs in circulation. You should compare death not per year, but over the lifetime of the boobs (or compare the dead by year with the number of breast created every year.). Or the lifetime of the gun or gun user.
3) Not all women who have breast cancer died from it. Maybe we should also count people injured by gun, not only dead.

ITAR applies if you buy part from the US. If you buy only equipment from non-US source, you don't need to follow ITAR. This regulation was to protect the US spce industry, and to measure the success of this smart ID, you can take a look of some of the platform offered by european/french satellite manufacturer. They offer for some of them an ITAR-free version, with 0 parts coming from the US.
