Basically I think they just shake the Magic 8 Ball to come up with some of these stats. Like the one OMoron came out with that 90% of Americans are for gun control.

A lot of people are for gun control - I mean you shouldn’t be firing indiscriminately all over the place, right?

I’m sure these are based on crime stats, not polls. The 90% “gun control” if falsified, I doubt the percentage is ever that high, but the question isn’t “gun control”, whatever that is, but background checks, often with qualifiers. I support barring violent felons (not all felons forever which makes me a radical rightwinger) and those institutionalized (by the authorities) as a danger from having firearms. Though I’d always answer no, the fact is depending on how the question is worded, I’m probably a yes most of the time. Statistics lie. Crime stats too, but not like polls.

kind of inflammatory headline like there is some crisis

nobody really but Muzzies and a few moonbats believe there was no genocide in WWII

does anyone deny other genocides?

why yes...they sure do

likely in far greater numbers

Armenia...Pol Pot...Kulak famines...Glorious this and that stuff with lotsa red scarves
