Hundreds of funerals? Really. Prove it.
Back in 1989 during the big gun scare of that yet, they then Attorney General of California said that he was tired of going to funerals of police officers killed with AK-47's. So, I called his office and asked when was the last funeral he went to of an officer killed with an AK-47. They couldn't and wouldn't say.
So, I did some research in those pre-internet days and found that in the previuos 20 years, there'd been two incidents of cops shot at with an AK-47. If I remember correctly, once during a drug raid in a motel room and once a squad car got shot at. No deaths.
Since that experience, I've learned that gun-grabbers lie all the time. And someone, who throws out a statistic apparently coming out of of his butt with gas, will be attacked. Bob Owens is surprised he's called a gun-grabber? He sounds just like one.
You need your gun available in an instant, when you need it. Locking it up all the time defeats the purpose of having the gun. Now, when you're away, lock it up.
I find it hard to believe that gun owners were arguing that children won't touch a gun, once they are exposed to it, since the mystery is gone. You need to train the kids in the use of guns, and demonstrate their destructive power. I trust trained kids as much as I trust cops with guns.
And Bob Owens ought to know that he'll be attacked when he attacks responsible gunowners. That's right in line with the gun grabbers.
No, no NO.
It's a "larger truth". It's "speaking truth to power". /sarc
Even if it were true, so what? Obviously, better if there were none at all, but hundreds is nothing next to the death toll of tyrannical regimes with unarmed subjects, in the 20th century alone. That's in the millions. Tens of millions.
