Years ago, a few decades to be exact, New York City, Young Minorities, Teenaged boys would find homeless people sleeping on the subway, douse them with lighter fluid and set them on fire. People capable of such acts may or may not use Guns, as a result of illegal drugs such as Crack and Meth, many of the children born to addicted mothers are born brain damaged and inherently violent.
There is much more mindless parroting of falsehoods and lies on the Anti Gun side, than the facts stated only by the F.B.I. even excluding every Pro Gun source.
The anti-gun clack advocate removing guns from the law abiding, assuming it will reduce the supply to criminals, but never propose how they intend to reduce the number of violent criminals, other than suggesting fewer guns will influence violent behavior. Aside from the left increasingly mounting protests, often violent, against LE officers in the discharge of their duty, they suggest we would be better off under the protection of the police state. A statistic and comparison I would like to see is how many police have intervened to stop a violent crime in progress vs defensive uses of a gun... we have been accumulating reports of successful gun defenses on this site... Other than the Scalise incident, I can't recall any other interventions by police. Without guns, they wouldn't be needed right? The populace would be well behaved sheep in a pen...right up to the moment of slaughter.
