Problem is:

It’s NOT OUR Guns,
It’s YOUR SONS!

[plain talk]

11 shootings in Chicago last weekend.

I guess you could show the carnage in each major city followed by a photo of their democrat mayors. It would take a while though.

[metmom]

When the democrats give us a workable plan for keeping guns out of the hands of criminals and illegals, and terrorists, then they MIGHT have a case for proposing restricting guns for law abiding citizens.

Except for that pesky 2nd amendment.

Too bad for you guys.

[Fireone]

Show the unhinged democrat, transexual, drug addled shooters, would have more of an impact.

[Blood of Tyrants]

Sure. Let’s also show the “medical waste” that comes from abortion mills.

[Disambiguator]

Don’t even legitimize it by calling it “gun violence.” That’s another abuse of language by the leftist gun grabbers.

[Macoozie]

Go away John.
You were groovy there for a while back in the 80’s.
Now, you’re just talkin’ out yer keister.

[Oberon]

If he thinks things are bad now, wait'll all the guns are taken from honest folk.

Ol' John ain't seen nuthin' yet.

[Manic_Episode]

Johnny Cougar should take a peek at the Oct 7th Hamas carnage of dead children, raped and burnt babies etc all because the parents were unarmed and defenseless because of so called "political games".

Ain't no game punk.

[CodeToad]

All the people will see are blacks killing people.

[No name given]

Someone needs to tell every single Tinseltown miscreant no one cares what they think!

[US_MilitaryRules]

You mean the blacks killing all the White people! Go ahead loser. Show them. FUJM

The Chicago newspapers regularly run cover stories deploring the number of “children” killed by guns. These stories always include a collage of fotos of the dead “kids,” and they’re always entirely black with a sprinkling of hispanics. And of course most of them aren’t really “children” except in the legal sense.

[Vermont Lt]

99.99% of Legal gun owners do not own pistols modified to be machine guns. Where is the3 NRA explaining this?

[Red Badger]

Ain’t that America?....................

[sauropod]

[Toespi]

Ok. Let’s do it,a including the “kids” who have dropped dead from fentanyl……

[lastchance]

Better yet show the long arrest records of those who fired those guns and killed children caught in the crossfire. List their race, age, sex, and last known address. Show number of times they were not handed the prison sentence called for.

Ironically, Ohio saw a drastic drop in gun crimes after adopting constitutional carry...
