Found out today, Lawn mowers kill more people than mass public shooters each year.....

[jon_berzerk]

I saw a column by Charles C.W. Cooke today...which is why this is in current events...and he made the point that lawn mowers kill 70 people every year.........

The only year where mass public shooters murdered more people than lawn mowers killed in accidents was 2017....where 110 people were murdered by mass public shooters......while lawn mowers murder more than 75 people every single year......

There is always a risk of over-attending to spectacular attacks, and we are beginning to do that here. By the time the clock strikes midnight, an average of 21 Americans will have been killed by drivers aged between 16 and 20. Tomorrow, on average, eleven teenagers will die because they were texting while driving. This year, around 70 people will be killed by lawnmowers.

Lawn Mower Accidents Rise This Time of Year | MU News Bureau

COLUMBIA, Mo. — It can travel at speeds of more than 200 miles per hour, and with little warning it can severely injure someone. That is how University of Missouri Extension safety expert Bill Casady describes a rock thrown from a lawn mower. Each year, more than more than 75,000 Americans are injured in lawn mowing accidents, and 10,000 of them are children.

“A projectile traveling at 150 to 250 miles per hour has great potential to tear the skin, and usually those injuries heal. However, an object could just as easily hit you in the face or directly in the eye, and that will put an eye out immediately,” Casady said.

Each year, more than 75 people die in lawn mower accidents.

Many lawn mowing accidents involve children, Casady said. He advises parents to not allow children under the age of 12 to use a push mower and to keep children under the age of 16 off riding lawn mowers.

[Moonglow]

The problem is the attempt to ban semi automatic civilian rifles....all 8 million AR-15s and the other 8 million or more other semi auto rifles, for a total number of deaths less than happen with the lawn mower.....

It makes no rational sense.......

Because one death is a tragedy, a million deaths a statistic....

And? Considering that all rifle types are used to murder fewer people every year than knives, clubs and empty hands......where does the million deaths come in? Sure...socialist governments murder unarmed people in the millions...but this is about rifles v. lawn mowers....and mass shooters v. lawn mowers....

Well you know that a gun can't cut grass so you better take a concession...

Stop the fuckwit lying.

One, lawnmowers injure not kill thousands of people.

Two, lawnmowers are not the tool of choice to butcher people.

I guess weed eaters chew up more than lawn mowers?

For butchery, they are preferred a 1000 to 1 over lawn mowers.

But, you moron, use your weapon to mow your grass.

You loonies are . . . doofi.

Yes.....when criminals want to commit murder, they like guns....that is why law abiding people need guns...

When governments want to kill hundreds of millions of innocent men, women and children, they need guns.....that is why law abiding men and women need guns.......

History taught us these lessons.....and you are too fucking stupid to understand them...

It’s also why they’re against doing anything that could reduce the number of kids being murdered.

You mean like arming staff and teachers, or providing for armed security in schools....you dumb ass.......or making sure the government stooges actually submit information into the background check system that would flag people with criminal histories that would stop them from buying guns....you mean like that? You stupid doofus.......Like putting violent criminals in jail for 30 years or more, instead of letting them back out the way the democrats keep doing.....you mean like that? You dumb ass...

Lawn mowers serve a purpose. You & your stupid assault type rifles don't.

 

[centerleftFL]

Oh well, I thought the lack of ammo would make them unusable. Oh well. (Yes, I'm sure a bunch of people would STOCKPILE ammo if they
were rendered ILLEGAL but it would be a start).

They wouldnt just stockpile it. They would make their own.

What Will I Need To Make My Own Ammo? | Off The Grid News

Clever but sounds labor intensive.

Add: Oh well, I'm still navigating--that response was to the "making their own ammo" response. Whoops!

 

[centerleftFL]

Honestly, I wouldn't have thought that but given the power of the AR15, power, heat velocity that bullets come out of it, I thought they might have needed their 'own' bullet. Not to mention it IS a 'war weapon'.

You don't know anything about guns, do you? The .223 or the 5.56 are two of the most common rifle rounds in the world....

Please.....educate yourself about guns before you comment on them.......

There are over 8 million AR-15s in private hands, yet knives are used to murder more people than AR-15s.....and if we could get stats on rifle types and murder.....it would be awful close as to which killed more people, the AR-15 or the lawn mower....

Yeah, that's MY problem! I don't know enough about ammo for assault weapons. Let me assure you, I will never spend the time educating myself on the same--particular for a political message board.

They are needless. They are 'vanity' items that won't make you or I any safer, any smarter (or anyone's penis any longer).
