5 Moslems shot dead in mosque

Gun violence has nothing to do with gun laws,

No, firearm homicide death rate has to do with the availability of firearms, especially handguns.

The experience of every other developed country is easily cast aside by slack jawed yokels regurgitating echoes from the chamber that 'gun control doesn't work'.

So where on this chart did Canada institute gun control?

What they don't tell you is these other developed countries had far lower homicide rates BEFORE they instituted strict gun control...

Means NOTHING!!

Conflating anything re numbers can be misleading.

What they REALLY don't want to slip is the fact that they have a very small minority population. Most of their minorities are Asians, who don't have a cultural history of violence. Their black population is only about 3%, far less than the US. But they can never admit that is the main reason their violence rates are so much less than the US.

Can't be...Canada has strict gun control. Must be a misreported story.

Just because we have a gun control ban doesn't mean there are no guns. Hunting weapons aren't banned, but large magazine semi-automatic rifles are.

That's the point of gun control, it doesnt work.

Never has.

The experience of every other developed country is easily cast aside by slack jawed yokels regurgitating echoes from the chamber that 'gun control doesn't work'.

What experience is that? Several countries in Europe allow gun ownership, and they have far lower firearm homicides than the US.
Why are Idaho's gun deaths so low compared to the rest of the US?

Gun violence has nothing to do with gun laws, and everything to do with minority population rates. The US's "gun violence" rates would be as low as most any European country if you discount all the black and Latino gun violence crimes.

But, those facts are easily cast aside by slack jawed progressives who can are incapable of looking at issues objectively.

Your opinions are your opinions. Not facts.

If that's true then Idaho would have one of the highest gun violence rate in the US. But in fact, it has one of the lowest.

Good luck explaining that one with your monkey math.

Nazi tactics .. this time it's Muslims instead of Jews.

Yeah, those Jews were crashing airplanes and blowing up civilians and setting roadside bombs for decades so they had it coming.

Yes they were. They were the terrorists of the Middle East when they first arrived and appropriated the land they now call Isreal from the Palestinians who owned it. There has been brutality on all sides there. Israel and its Arab neighbours have been fighting an endless war over the Partition of Isreal.

The Israeli's have taken the Old Testament mantra of "An eye for an eye" to great extremes in dealing with Palestian terrorism. There's grievances on both side to be sure but the whole area has always been a hotbed of tribalism, and brutality. It would be best to just leave them all to kill one another, as far as I'm concerned. No good has ever come of messing around in the area.

The US managed to achieve independence from Middle Eastern oil under President Obama, so that you can abandon these fools to their endless wars, and get the hell out.

And you're suggesting that all of that post-WWII stuff is what inspired Hitler and the Nazis?

My God, post WW2? You're just ignorant.

True. Again though; the reasons are more complex than just guns. You are quite correct in pointing out "another factor" that the left hates being brought up.

Another echo from the slack jawed cracker chamber. You guys are nothing if not predictable.

Have some data.

I always find it amusing that 90% White Canada calls 66% White USA racist!!

Minorities make up 22% of Canada`s population but they don`t have a guns for all policy like the U.S. See the difference?

 

[EverCurious]

Well if you don't like the "guns for all policy" then I suggest you move your little ass out of the US cause we were founded with a 2nd amendment.

So it`s skin color that makes people murder. Good one

Five people were killed after gunmen opened fire in a Quebec City mosque during evening prayers, the mosque’s president told reporters on Sunday.

The Canadian police appear to have been very quick to make two arrests.

Thought to be Right Wing violence.

Gunmen kill 6, injure 8 in attack on worshipers at Quebec City mosque

Gunmen attacked a suburban Quebec City mosque as worshipers were finishing their prayers Sunday night, killing six and wounding at least eight.

While mosques in Canada and the U.S. have been the targets of numerous acts of vandalism and other hate crimes in the past few years, the Quebec City attack appears to be the first mass shooting at an Islamic house of worship in North America.

Government officials wasted no time calling it an act of terrorism. A spokeswoman for the Sûreté du Québec, the Quebec provincial police, said that two suspects had been arrested who remained unidentified. Authorities provided no possible motive as they took the first steps of their investigation. Police do not believe at this time that others were directly involved in the attack.

So regurgitating insults is your answer? I guess if that is all you are capable of...

 

[Eloy]

But I thought 100% of all muslims were as innocent as kittens.

A xenophobic bigot as president of the United States encourages people like you to write hateful remarks.

Wrong, the person is responsible for what he/she does or write, ever heard of personal responsibility? Are you the type that blames everything you do or write on someone else? Do you need encouragement to be so nasty?

Anyway, about 45% of US murders are committed by whites

Expanded Homicide Data Table 3

which gives a US white firearm homicide offender rate/100,000 for the US

United States 60 9146 2.97* 1 88.8 270000000

of 0.45 x 2.97* = 1.33 firearm homicide/100,000 of population by US whites.

Compare this with the European countries of England and Wales.

England and Wales 1 6.6 41 0.07* 88 6.2 3400000

*firearm homicide/100,000 of population

*Gun homicides and gun ownership listed by country
So the US white firearms homicide rate is 19 times that of England and Wales combined. Give or take.
