No...actually, we are now safer than we were then because more Americans own and carry guns....

We went from 200 million guns in private hands in the 1990s and 4.7 million people carrying guns for self defense in 1997...to close to 400-600 million guns in private hands and over 17 million people carrying guns for self defense in 2017...guess what happened...
-- gun murder down 49%

--gun crime down 75%

--violent crime down 72%

Gun Homicide Rate Down 49% Since 1993 Peak; Public Unaware

Compared with 1993, the peak of U.S. gun homicides, the firearm homicide rate was 49% lower in 2010, and there were fewer deaths, even though the nation’s population grew. The victimization rate for other violent crimes with a firearm—assaults, robberies and sex crimes—was 75% lower in 2011 than in 1993. Violent non-fatal crime victimization overall (with or without a firearm) also is down markedly (72%) over two decades.
That certainly shows with a shooting almost daily now.


And every day more Americans use their guns to stop violent criminals....but since no one is killed, since they used a gun to save a life.....we don't get to wade through the blood you guys smear on the nearest cameras....

A quick guide to the studies and the numbers.....the full lay out of what was studied by each study is in the links....

The name of the group doing the study, the year of the study, the number of defensive gun uses and if police and military defensive gun uses are included.....notice the bill clinton and obama defensive gun use research is highlighted.....

GunCite-Gun Control-How Often Are Guns Used in Self-Defense

GunCite Frequency of Defensive Gun Use in Previous Surveys

Field...1976....3,052,717 ( no cops, military)

DMIa 1978...2,141,512 ( no cops, military)

L.A. TIMES...1994...3,609,68 ( no cops, military)

Kleck......1994...2.5 million ( no cops, military)

Obama's CDC....2013....500,000--3million

--------------------


Bordua...1977...1,414,544

DMIb...1978...1,098,409 ( no cops, military)

Hart...1981...1.797,461 ( no cops, military)

Mauser...1990...1,487,342 ( no cops, military)

Gallup...1993...1,621,377 ( no cops, military)

DEPT. OF JUSTICE...1994...1.5 million ( the bill clinton study)

Journal of Quantitative Criminology--- 989,883 times per year."

(Based on survey data from a 2000 study published in the Journal of Quantitative Criminology,[17] U.S. civilians use guns to defend themselves and others from crime at least 989,883 times per year.[18])

Paper: "Measuring Civilian Defensive Firearm Use: A Methodological Experiment." By David McDowall and others. Journal of Quantitative Criminology, March 2000. Measuring Civilian Defensive Firearm Use: A Methodological Experiment - Springer


-------------------------------------------

Ohio...1982...771,043

Gallup...1991...777,152

Tarrance... 1994... 764,036 (no cops, military)

Lawerence Southwich Jr. 400,000 fewer violent crimes and at least 800,000 violent crimes deterred..

*****************************************
If you take the studies from that Kleck cites in his paper, 16 of them....and you only average the ones that exclude military and police shootings..the average becomes 2 million...I use those studies because I have the details on them...and they are still 10 studies (including Kleck's)....

And do you blame me when a Caifornia teacher

3 students injured when California high school teacher fires gun during safety course

by ERIK ORTIZ

Three students at a central California high school were injured Tuesday when a teacher fired a gun inside of a classroom during a firearms safety course, according to police and local reports.


How incompetent do you have to be for that incident to happen?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?


.


.
Cop level of incompetent..


WHY MUST "WE THE PEOPLE" PAY THE CONSEQUENCES WHEN COPS ARE INCOMPETENT?


.

"WE THE PEOPLE" want gun control that keeps guns out of the hands of criminals, crazies and domestic abusers. THAT is what "WE THE PEOPLE" want.... you loons are not "WE THE PEOPLE"


I don't think that it is Constitutional to prevent demo rats, socialists , fascists and other criminals from buying firearms.

WE THE PEOPLE will fight any attempt to confiscate and mass disarmaments.


.

the CONSTITUTION does not prohibit regulation.

but thanks for playing.


The Constitution grants Congress no regulatory authority over firearms. NONE

United States v. Cruikshank
 
Republican solution: do nothing, wait for the next tragedy, do nothing..

But if you send enough thoughts and prayers, you sleep like a baby and wake up ready to attack the survivors. If your faith is strong enough, you can even start savaging the survivors and their families by calling them crisis actors and that they're liars on gun grabber payrolls.

Yes it does. What part of "shall not be infringed" do you not get?
Age limits are infringement....are they not?

And a bunch of slack jawed fat white guys masterbating to guns isn't a well regulated militia

Don't use big words you cannot spell correctly!
 
emotions run high in hospitals-----shootings HAPPEN in inner city hospitals----it is not all that unusual.----Sometimes a person angry at losing a relative---sometimes to "RESCUE" a hospitalized criminal----ALL KINDS OF REASONS
 
Is the hospital another gun free zone?
Sure...what were they thinking? Doctors and nurses should be packing.

Armed security guards. You know. Like they have on Capitol Hill.
You don't think they have those at hospitals? :lol:

they do-----but hospitals are BIG places and shooters can easily "case" the joint. -----getting past the armed guard
snoozing in the main lobby is not a big task
