Except, not really.
We have 600 mass shootings a year, but the only time we pay attention is if white people are the victims or if there's a really high body count.
Yes.
I think every gun purchase needs to be heavily scrutinized. Imagine if someone had actually scrutinized the Las Vegas Concert Shooter when he started stockpiling guns to do what he did? Or Nancy Lanza.
We didn't have these shooting decades ago because we didn't have as many guns or guns that were as deadly. And the gun industry didn't specifically market to crazy people.
You see, we DID have a huge spike in the murder rate in the 1920's. The 1920's murder rate was higher than it is now. Gangsters were using tommy guns to fight over booze distribution.
So the government did something breathtakingly rational. It made Booze legal again and put restrictions on guns that lasted until the 1970's when Wayne LaPeirre and the other crazies took over the NRA.
We do not have 600 mass shootings a year....last year we had 12, so far this year 11......
You lie with every single post.
We had shootings decades ago, but now we have social media so we went from 1 a year to about 11.......out of over 350 million Americans...
Meanwhile, almost all gun murder actually happens in democrat party controlled cities, as they release violent criminals over and over again.
We had violence in the 20s because of prohibition as gangs fought over booze territory, the same as we have gangs fighting over drugs in our democrat party controlled cities today.....
