    Since when was Mexico a first world country comparable to any of these nations ? I'm sure women in Syria are currently worse off too :roll:

    Was not a study and in fact it suggested that since there was little reliable data further studies be undertaken

    Most commonly and earroneously cherry picked statement of all time

    Oh, and Germany and Switzerland have far greater rates of violence against women than the US does.

    Oh that wasn't a study?

    Why did Obama keep calling it a study?

    Nonsense. Women are by many orders of magnitude more likely to meet a violent end because of guns in the US than in any other developed nation as my chart clearly illustrated

    Of course you don't want to call it a study, and of course they suggested more research.

    They didn't get the conclusions they wanted. Do it again until it agrees with banning guns.

    Oh I see. So if someone kills a woman in Germany with a butter knife, that's not what we're worried about.

    We're only worried about guns.

    Who cares if more women are actually killed in Germany overall, let's focus on the gun deaths.

    Your "chart" wasn't a "chart".

    It was a meme that left off anything but gun deaths, and all OECD countries where the violence from guns was higher, such as Mexico.

    You know, to advance the narrative with lies.

    Let's take a look at actual murder rates in OECD countries, shall we?

    Oh noes, where did your narrative go?

    Yes, that's why I said liberals in safe countries don't understand the world.

    Exactly the same as the complaint you are making about the sign.

    It's an OECD country, which is what your list is.

    It's also the nation directly south of us that pours into our country on a daily basis, and brings their murder rate with them.

    Don't worry, you'll be learning allllll about that.

    Your crime has gone up double digits in all metrics in the past two years.

    Just wait and see what it is 20 years from now.

    And those higher than
    And those wth higher rates than the USA. They would be considered among the well regulated lower gun ownership countries?

    She's definitely well grounded including a good sense of humor.

    Except I have research on my side.

    So tell me, since I am an Aussie and therefor cannot legally own a gun for self protection. Why is my life not at greater risk?

    It is at greater risk. You're just lucky that you live in a place on earth where there are fewer murderers.
