The us government is not composed of nazis or run by hitler.
At least as long as we keep the current crop of banana republicans out.
Its exactly saying nothingits better than a fuck you,,
would you suggest we just remain silent and not say anything??
This post ^^^^^^ reads like a campaign platform of a maga fuckupYeah, nazis would arrest political opponents and put them in prison for decades over minor crimes, and nazis would keep the leader of the opposition party off of the ballot for the Presidential election.......nazis would use the Federal police force to spy on citizens going to church and school board meetings.....
Ummmmmm, I don't think you understand what nazis actually do......
YOu've posted that made up crap a million times.Nope.......
Case Closed: Kleck Is Still Correct
There are roughly 100,000 people shot in the United States yearly, and something over 30,000 die. If this 1/3 vs. 2/3 ratio of deaths to injuries in actual shootings pertains in these DGUs, that makes for at least 176,000 lives saved—less some attackers who lost their lives to defenders. This enormous benefit dwarfs, both in human and economic terms, the losses trumpeted by hoplophobes who only choose to see the risk side of the equation.

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.....

2021 national firearms survey..
The survey was designed by Deborah Azrael of the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, and Matthew Miller of Northeastern University,

The survey further finds that approximately a third of gun owners (31.1%) have used a firearm to defend themselves or their property, often on more than one occasion, and it estimates that guns are used defensively by firearms owners in approximately 1.67 million incidents per year. Handguns are the most common firearm employed for self-defense (used in 65.9% of defensive incidents), and in most defensive incidents (81.9%) no shot was fired. Approximately a quarter (25.2%) of defensive incidents occurred within the gun owner's home, and approximately half (53.9%) occurred outside their home, but on their property. About one out of ten (9.1%) defensive gun uses occurred in public, and about one out of twenty (4.8%) occurred at work.

Applying those restrictions leaves 19 NSPOF respondents (0.8 percent of the sample), representing 1.5 million defensive users. This estimate is directly comparable to the well-known estimate of Kleck and Gertz, shown in the last column of exhibit 7. While the NSPOF estimate is smaller, it is statistically plausible that the difference is due to sampling error. Inclusion of multiple DGUs reported by half of the 19 NSPOF respondents increases the estimate to 4.7 million DGUs.
n the third column of Table 6.2, we apply the Kleck and Gertz (1995) criteria for "genuine" DGUs (type A), leaving us with just 19 respondents. They represent 1.5 million defensive users. This estimate is directly comparable to the well-known Kleck and Gertz estimate of 2.5 million, shown in the last

As shown in Table 6.6, the defender fired his or her gun in 27 percent of these incidents (combined "fire warning shots" and "fire at perpetrator" percentages, though some respondents reported firing both warning shots and airning at the perpetrator). Forty percent of these were "warning shots," and about a third were aimed at the perpetrator but missed. The perpetrator was wounded by the crime victim in eight percent of all DGUs. In nine percent of DGUs the victim captured and held the perpetrator at gunpoint until the police could arrive.

Defensive Use of Guns
Defensive use of guns by crime victims is a common occurrence, although the exact number remains disputed (Cook and Ludwig, 1996; Kleck, 2001a). Almost all national survey estimates indicate that defensive gun uses by victims are at least as common as offensive uses by criminals, with estimates of annual uses ranging from about 500,000 to more than 3 million (Kleck, 2001a), in the context of about 300,000 violent crimes involving firearms in 2008 (BJS, 2010).

Yeah, nazis would arrest political opponents and put them in prison for decades over minor crimes, and nazis would keep the leader of the opposition party off of the ballot for the Presidential election.......nazis would use the Federal police force to spy on citizens going to church and school board meetings.....
Ummmmmm, I don't think you understand what nazis actually do......
And here’s another lie Republicans use to ‘justify’ their opposition to addressing gun crime and violence, along with willful ignorance and demagoguery.Dear Crepitus....
In the 1920s, we did what you preach, we registered our legal guns because the government would keep us safe. In 1939, our governments used those registration lists to confiscate our legal guns......

And here’s another lie Republicans use to ‘justify’ their opposition to addressing gun crime and violence, along with willful ignorance and demagoguery.
Guns won’t be ‘banned,’ guns won’t be ‘confiscated’ – but the dishonest right will continue to propagate these lies.
Under the new IL law new sales of certain guns are banned and if you already own one it will be confiscated if you don't register it.And here’s another lie Republicans use to ‘justify’ their opposition to addressing gun crime and violence, along with willful ignorance and demagoguery.

That is the most conservative GOVERNMENT estimate. It's not from a pro-gun group, it's from the Government.YOu and I both know that's complete bullshit.
Try again.
No it hasn't. You have a vivid imagination.Don't care who it's from, it's been debunked over and over.
