Yesterday I thought I heard it was 31st. We're not counting murders, though, only gun homicides. Compare apples to apples.Another way of looking at this is a bunch of people who have armed bodyguards paid for them to go and protest guns.
Umm.... I believe they're protesting getting shot. Nice try though.
Do you ever feel like saying ,” Duh,” to some of these posts?
I do not think they even know what they are angry about any more. They just know they are ag’in it!
Is that crowd bigger than Trumps Inaugural Crowd? He is going to be mad about that!
This entire Butthurt, in this thread and the other inevitable ones like it ---- just underscore the basic point I've been making since literally the day I joined this site, and before, when recent shootings were again in current news ---
---- which was, and still is, that gun violence emanates from the fact that we live in a culture that worships guns; a culture of Death, where my right to own a bazooka trumps your right to be Alive. Whenever I make this point, out come the Butthurt Gun Fetishists to denounce anybody, like the kids marching today, who wants to stay alive in defiance of that fetish. Hence the butthurt. Not at all unlike the baby who's had its pacifier taken away --- same thing.
I hate to burst your bubble, but America is far down the list as a culture of death. In fact, according to the FBI, we rank 83 in murders per capita. And, when was the last time anyone was murdered in America with a bazooka? You apparently live in fear of inanimate objects, or you are so spooked by the people around you that you fear one of them will shoot you.
The posters you claim to be butthurt, are not hurt at all. They are frustrated by the ignorance that you on the left constantly display concerning firearms and firearm ownership.
We are one of the few societies that allow general ownership of firearms, consequently a larger share of murders in this society are carried out with guns. The per capita murder rate shows that guns are not driving violence, people are, and they are the ones who need to be controlled.
