    We don't kill that many compared to how many we have.

    you want to tell us americans how to run our country and what laws we should have and you are ignorant of the fact that single parent households are the leading source of criminals and juvenile delinquents? Our welfare system encourages irresponsible parenting or a complete abdication of parenting. This system is pushed by generally the same people who want to ban our guns

    we had a well publicized case in my home town when a University police officer shot a motorist who was unarmed. Turns out the motorist was trafficking dope and apparently had 13 kids with eight different women. Its common in the environment where our inner city criminals come from

    We have fifteen times the number of people you do, and a horrible social support mechanism. And a 1000 mile porous border.

    Because they were poorly conducted crap. If you had read the ENTIRE section of the CDC report that is basically what they say- 45

    I guess I missed the part where they basically said the research and surveys were poorly conducted crap.

    I'll read it again.

    Thanks

    Nothing you can post can mitigates the facts. In the US, gun availability has masssively increased; violent crime has decreased... it’s fact, period, end of story. No study you post is worth c... until that fact has been reconciled to your narrative, and no gun control advocate has done that with a credible dissertation.

    Heres another chart graphically illustrating the impact guns have on your society. If you took that away the overall US violent crime rate would not differ much from the rest of the developed world

    Nonsense. They way they tabulate and classify such crime changed two years ago which is why there is such a difference

    I disagree. I've seen documentaries that set up a situation when a crime is being committed and measures how well a non-police person with a gun reacts and they don't react well. Reacting appropriately takes training and experience. Just because you have a gun, it doesn't mean you are going to be able to do the needed thing.

    Because it claims to know better. BTW I served 8 years in the NATO military during the cold war .....'tovarishch'. If you are going to try and politically smear me you could at least have gotten the spelling right:roll:
