And do me a favor, don’t question our intelligence when you guys wholeheartedly believed we could pay for the health insurance of 45,000,000 people and premiums would go down by $2500. Even your own Gruber called you morons.
Not too many years ago the Philadelphia Inquirer newspaper ran a huge article dealing with the gang bangers in Philly and how they were buying guns in Florida with licenses over the internet.This was at the same time the Florida pill mills were dispensing drugs to most of the East coast addicts.
It’s odd that you would associate big city murders with skin color. You do know what that means, right? Does stereotyping, profiling and racism ring a bell? Yep, you did it. Own it.
Do we know if in fact assault pistols were used in commission of the crimes? Or were they revolvers or musketry?
No difference. Either way, their lives mean nothing to you but an opportunity to try and score some points in a childish political debate on an internet forum.
If they meant anything to democrat voters and the elected democrats that represent them-surely we would have seen a positive change by now.
"The difference" is that the 5 individuals may have been isolated inter-criminal acts of violence whereas five being shot at once almost certainly includes innocent people and have perhaps nothing to do with any "perceived justification" on the part of the shooter.
Gang violence isn’t as easy to solve as mass shootings. It is intellectually lazy to pair the two together.
It's only seems childish because these murders can't be blamed on white nationalists, gun laws, racism or Trump.
Deflection. You are one of the usual suspects clamoring for new gun laws. NYC already has those laws on the books. What say you now?
That's true. Obviously a lot of these guns were bought by "legal gun owners" in whatever state and sold (illegally) to felons. I had to take the "registered" out of your description since actual registered guns and gun owners don't contribute much to the black market of guns.
I this case it took at least 4 individual bad guys to commit 5 murders, whereas in mass shootings one guy can go off and kill 20+ in one event.
Even left-leaning Politifact won't back you up on that claim. https://www.politifact.com/new-york...egal-gun-owners-commit-most-gun-crime-rep-fa/ And they only qualified it with the weasel-word "MOSTLY" as a semantics argument quibbling over what qualifies as a "vast majority".
If liberalism is so great, then why is NYC the least friendly? https://www.foxnews.com/travel/new-york-ranked-least-friendly-america-survey
Obviously, as I said, one is better than five. Already explained it in detail in many threads: ban assault weapon transfers, ban high capacity magazines, mandatory background checks for all gun transfers, etc.....
