es....crime in those neighborhoods has driven out businesses including food stores.....dumb ass.
So let me get this straight. We have astronomical crime rates in this country because of easy access to guns... but those poor people deserve to starve because they live in the worst of it...
Am I Getting you right, DickTiny?
No...we don't have astronomical crime rates...in fact, violent crime has gone down 75% over the last 26 years.......
What we have is a democrat party whose members keep letting known, violent, repeat gun offenders from jail on Bond, often not even making paying a Bond necessary, and judges who give short prison sentences to repeat, violent gun offenders....then we have democrat politicians who keep reducing the penalties for violent gun crime....
That is why democrat voting districts are filled with violent crime.
Over the last 26 years, 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 17.25 million people carrying guns for self defense in 2018...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.
