74 school shootings in 77 weeks...Worth it's own thread.

[Geaux4it]

74 school shootings in the past 77 weeks.

Not 74 chemical bombings, not 74 stabbings, not 74 bows and arrows, not 74 hatchet attacks. The common denominator (do I need to define that term for you?) is guns.

If you Ammo-sexuals want to keep, sleep with and insert your guns into your privates because I really think it's that sick, then figure out a way to stop this epidemic.

This data tells me that the parents of these kids are pretty much out of touch with their kids, so start with them.

Do something besides shoving the 2nd Amendment in my face and whining about your fucking rights. Your rights end when innocent people who cannot protect themselves die.

Take away the gang related shootings, the suicides and the drug related shootings and your list is quite small.

We need to keep gang bangers in guns so they keep their population down. Puts less stress on our prison systems

-Geaux

 

[Lonestar_logic]

I'm realistic.

I know you can't ban guns, but let's start with the baby steps of getting them out of the hands of crazy people and criminals.

Then later on, we can talk the gun nutters off the ledge.

Thanks for proving my point Joe. You are indeed correct that gun control is carried out in small, incremental steps. That way you really don't feel your civil rights being stripped from you all at once.

-Geaux

Or you realize that you really didn't need it.

Let's be honest what you are talking about here. There are two reasons you nutters give for wanting to have guns.

1) To protect yourself from criminals. Except that a gun in the house is 43 times more likely to kill someone in the house than a bad guy. (Yes, yes, suicides don't count, etc. We get all the anti-Kellerman foot-stomping, no need to rehash that here.) Well, the only reason why you are afraid of the criminals is because they have guns, too.

2) So some day, you can take on the government! You know, like these two brave patriots did...

Oh, wait. THe "Patriot" is a nutbag who thinks he's the Joker and the "Government" is a father of six who was just stopping for lunch. Oooops.

That has been debunked so many times it isn't even funny.

You idiots can't accept the fact that more guns equal less crime... period.

Take away the gang related shootings, the suicides and the drug related shootings and your list is quite small.

CNN of all places did an analysis and only found 15 of the 74 to match the conditions of the Oregon shooting.

That has been debunked so many times it isn't even funny.

You idiots can't accept the fact that more guns equal less crime... period.

Well, no, because it isn't true.

IN fact, quite the reverse, The more gun ownership you have, the more gun death you have.

So, what's the problem?

[JoeB131]

You mean other than people dying?

 

[jon_berzerk]

How many of those places are gun free zones?

Why are those innocent people not allowed to defend themselves?

most if not all of them

ironically two armed guards stopped the Oregon shooter

Murder Rates Nationally and By State | Death Penalty Information Center

Murder rate per 100000

Illinois 5.8

Montana 2.7

So gun ownership doesn't correlate with murder rate.

We all know gun deaths include suicides and suicide is not illegal so should not be counted.

without close examination

the list shrinks a lot when

the colleges are thrown out

wonder how much more the list shrinks

when you consider how many are not mass shootings

That has been debunked so many times it isn't even funny.

You idiots can't accept the fact that more guns equal less crime... period.

Well, no, because it isn't true.

IN fact, quite the reverse, The more gun ownership you have, the more gun death you have.

Does the study consider a suicide a homicide? That would skew the results.

Also:

State levels of gun ownership were estimated using a well-established proxy variable: the percentage of a state's suicides that are committed with a firearm (FS/S). Because there is no state-level survey that measures household gun ownership, researchers have widely relied upon the FS/S proxy in injury prevention research, and this proxy has been extensively validated in past studies. The proxy correlates highly with survey measures of household firearm ownership, the authors said.

Ah proxies, the lazy scientists best friend.

If the study includes suicides, AND If you go purely by true homicides, i.e. killing someone else, methinks the results would be different.

from that list justifiable homicides and those committed by the cops

Proves nothing. take suicides and gang murders out of the data and see what you get. figures don't lie, but liars figure-------you post something from mother jones and pretend it is unbiased and factual---------you are an idiot.

 

[I.P.Freely]

so all we need to be is an apartheid police state which is hated by the entire world.

Nope, don't have to worry about robberies.

Just rocket attacks and kids strapping bombs to themselves.

LOL...... ^^^ not only the most naïve asshole on the forums, but a racist one as well.


Take a bow s0n!!!

Am I the only guy here who is wondering what those girls look like from the front?

lots are very beautiful, in war time the brakes come off. In my experience the Nurses are wonderful .

We have a mental health problem that is disguised as a gun problem and until we address this FACT, the deaths will continue.

All the common sense in the world won't get through to the gun grabbers, I just say this to them:

Molon Labe mother fuckers!

74 school shootings in the past 77 weeks.

Not 74 chemical bombings, not 74 stabbings, not 74 bows and arrows, not 74 hatchet attacks. The common denominator (do I need to define that term for you?) is guns.

If you Ammo-sexuals want to keep, sleep with and insert your guns into your privates because I really think it's that sick, then figure out a way to stop this epidemic.

This data tells me that the parents of these kids are pretty much out of touch with their kids, so start with them.

Do something besides shoving the 2nd Amendment in my face and whining about your fucking rights. Your rights end when innocent people who cannot protect themselves die.

The shooting at Northwest here in Clarksville had nothing to do with students.

They found a body of a 38 yr old man in the school parking lot at 6am.


I sense a bit of piling on.......Body found in parking lot of Clarksville high school - WKRN News 2

 

[RDD_1210]

No one has suggested a handgun ban, Spambot.

But not letting Crazy people guy guns, yeah, most Americans think that's a good idea.

Now we just need to get Congress's collective testicles out of the National Rampage Associations lockbox.

Background checks=registration=confiscation

-Geaux

In what scenario do you see our government being able to confiscate 300 million guns?

 

[RDD_1210]

Background checks=registration=confiscation

-Geaux

Translation- Geaux lives in mortal fear if they ever did a background check on him, they'd probably take his guns because he's nuts.

Here's the thing. If your neighbors aren't comfortable with you having a gun, there's probably a good reason.

Yea, the neighbors are libs who are afraid of their shadows. And more importantly, fences make good neighbors and if no fence, they can gfts

-Geaux

They're afraid? Yet you're the one who insists he needs a gun for protection. Who is the one that is afraid?
