2018 is finally over, and for another year, just about everything else kills more people than mass public shooters do...but anti gunners still won't call to ban cars...swimming pools, or gravity....

We don't have the CDC reports on fatal injuries yet, or even 2017, so we will simply have to compare 2018 mass public shooting deaths to the 2016 totals.......

Deaths from mass public shootings in 2018....

77..... I didn't count the 3 victims from the Chicago Hospital shooting because that wasn't a "mass public shooting" but a domestic dispute.....there is a difference....

So... 77 people killed by mass public shooters in 2018......

Now, some context...

knife murders.....2009-2013.....More people are killed with knives than by mass public shooters.

2009----1,836
2010----1,933
2011----1,611
2012---1,769
2013---1.956
2015....1,589
2016....1,632
2017....1,591

More people are killed accidentally in cars, than by mass public shooters....and ladders, and poison, and gravity, and lack of air, and drugs..........

Fatal Injury Data | WISQARS | Injury Center | CDC

2016



Car.......38,748

falling off of ladders.....300

falling.......34,673

suffocation...6,610

drowning......3,786

Drug over dose deaths (2017) 70,237

More people are killed with empty hands, than by mass public shooters.....from the FBI for 2017....

Cars serve multiple other purposes other than to maim or kill. I welcome any efforts you want to introcude to require the same licensing and registration for guns as are required for cars.

Hey 2aguy is making the comparison. I am voicing my support for his efforts.
 
Cars have many purposes; guns one…kill


I have a dozen guns, I've owned guns for over 50 years

Not once have they been used to kill.


Less than 1% of firearms in our country have been used to kill another human being.

Why do you have them?

Target shooting, home protection for the most part.

To kill anyone who may try to get into your home; right?

only as a last resort.

I'd prefer to just incapacitate them, and wait for the police.


you have a problem with self defense?

He's really trying hard, but that's a stupid comparison.

What I'm getting is that he doesn't want you to protect your family.
 
Please don't confuse the bed wetting snowflakes with facts. They've been brainwashed by the elite to want to take away guns from only LAW ABIDING CITIZENS.

Its true, there is a push to ban ALL CARS because some drive irresponsibly, right?

No. You’re using the gun for it’s intended purpose. I applaud you and hope you do whatever you need to do to protect your house and property. As I have said numerous times.

One thing we have that they do not is large swaths of rural lands. I think it would be almost criminal not to have a means of active self-defense and deterrence--yes I mean firearms--if you live in one of these areas.

and if I protected my home and family with a knife, or spear, you woudn't have a problem with it because they can be used for other things?

Remember, the 'original' purpose of a knife was NOT to cut bread

When your gun cuts bread…we can have that conversation.
