Hmmm. Let’s see. When they showed up to protest at the NRA convention, mz. watts is clearly seen departing in a black SUV with new york plates on it. A little far from it’s home state? Hmmmm. Sure bloomers isn’t footing the entire bill?

Propaganda aimed at those who only feel, and have no thoughts or reasoning skills of their own. Nothing more. Sadly, that group seems to expand every day.

Yes, I remember that lady with the gun at the church. Of course she’s one of the good guys.

I remember too, in 1984, at the San Ysidro massacre at McDonald’s in San Ysidro, CA, near San Diego, the perpetrator was taken out by police snipers.

We could make a long list of bad guys who were taken out by the good guys. Would it make a difference to the media and these liberals? Maybe not, but it would be good to have some balance in this endless gun control debate.

It’s not facts that motivate antis, it’s hearing stuff like this on TV that convinces people. She knows this, and is not stupid nor is she uninformed. She knows how to use mass media to influence consensus.

So far this year there have been 15 justifiable homicides in Detroit and many times as many non fatal defensive shootings. The murder rate is down 24% this year from the same period last year and the police chief will be the first to tell you that armed citizens are the primary reason.

They are getting extremely desperate when they blatantly lie like this and expect people to believe it.

I’m sure she is going all over spreading those lies. And unfortunately, so many people will believe her.

Amazing isn’t it. When the chief made those comments I figured he was toast. Nothing like success to prove your point.

Defensive gun use
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defensive_gun_use

Estimates over the number of defensive gun uses vary, depending on the study’s population, criteria, time-period studied, and other factors. Higher end estimates by Kleck and Gertz show between 1 to 2.5 million DGUs in the United States each year.[1]:64–65[2][3] Low end estimates cited by Hemenway show approximately 55,000-80,000 such uses each year.[4][5] Middle estimates have estimated approximately 1 million DGU incidents in the United States.[1]:65[6] The basis for the studies, the National Self-Defense Survey and the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS), vary in their methods, time-frames covered, and questions asked.[7] DGU questions were asked of all the NSDS sample.[3]

Due to screening questions in the NCVS survey, only a minority of the NCVS sample were asked a DGU question.[8] Besides the NSDS and NCVS surveys, ten national and three state surveys summarized by Kleck and Gertz gave 764 thousand to 3.6 million DGU per year.[3] Hemenway contends the Kleck and Gertz study is unreliable and no conclusions can be drawn from it.[4] He argues that there are too many “false positives” in the surveys, and finds the NCVS figures more reliable, yielding estimates of around 100,000 defensive gun uses per year. Applying different adjustments, other social scientists suggest that between 250,000 and 370,000 incidences per year.[9]

Does anyone know of a source that gives the steps to form one of these crazy groups? I would love to get some bucks from Soros or Bloomberg to add to my retirement bucks.
