Ok, so start with their premise and start posting travel warnings for Chicago and Detroit...
What amazes me is the idiots who publicly advertise that their business establishments (restaurants, schools, etc.) are gun-free zones. Why don’t they put up signs saying, “come and shoot people?”
that’s why I left Kanadastan, they’re the land of naive stupidity..
***If only the teacher and his students had been packing,***
it works for Israel! They learned a bad lesson forty years ago at Ma’alot.
Down here along the Gulf Coast of Fl, the cars with “Pray for me I drive US19” bumper stickers outnumber the ones with Confederate flags on them.
Take away the black on black crime and the US becomes one of the safest countries.
It’s not like getting rid of guns will eliminate suicides.
I was surprised that the percent of suicides was so high.
You’d never know it from the usual MSM coverage.
The biggest health problem in this country is the outright lying by liberals such as this one. The official death count in the United States in 2014 by guns is around 12,500 and that includes the suicides which make up about 70% of the total. There are about 30,000 deaths and injuries combined. But these liars still spout off what they want, not the truth. I REPEAT, THIS IS FULL OF LIES@!!!!
About 1.3 million.
From the CDC website.
All homicides
Number of deaths: 16,121
Deaths per 100,000 population: 5.1
Firearm homicides
Number of deaths: 11,208
Deaths per 100,000 population: 3.5
How many of the firearms homicides were suicides, justified self-defense shootings or just accidents by some dumb-butt doing something stupid?
It’s funny how people assign human characteristics to inanimate objects.
So, how many f those homicides are justified?
What about the millions of times people defend themselves with a firearm every year?
I guess people who save themselves or their loved ones with a firearm are non-statistics that don’t count in the eyes of this Canadian moonbat.
Case in point: A 14-year old boy in Houston was home alone with his younger sister.
Two intruders, in the process of committing a home invasion, attacked the boy’s home. One criminal was coming through the front door of the home, the other criminal was breaking down the home’s back door.
The 14-year old boy grabbed his father’s AR-15 and shot and killed one intruder and wounded the other.
This was within the last year, and was never reported by any of the alphabet news agencies.
That’s one reason to NOT use Uber.
The company recently announced that neither their drivers nor their passengers will be allowed to carry firearms.
Criminals take note!
“Having taught English in a community college for 40 years,....”
Real success story there .... wonder if that “community college” was an Ivy League community college?
