I ******* hunt. I hunt. When I lived in Tennessee I ******* hunted. I'm in Canada now. I ******* HUNT MY FOOD.
**** OFF.
You hunt. You live in Canada. They have supermarkets in Canada, don't they? We have a problem here in Yankeeland with gun toting madmen, perhaps you haven't noticed. Some of us yanks have had enough of this gunmania and want to really end that. Repealing the 2nd amendment to the American constitution.
You are wrong..we don't have a gun problem in this country, if you did, it wouldn't be confined to rare mass shootings and a few blocks in our major cities.....
We have 600 million guns in private hands.
We have over 16 million rifles with magazines.
We have over 16,300,000 people who carry hand guns for self defense.
In 2016 we had 6 mass public shootings and 71 people were murdered...
Knives were used to murder 1,604 people, you didn't post about a knife problem.
Clubs murdered 472 people...you didn't post we had a club problem.
Bare hands murdered 656 people...you didn't post we had a Kung Fu problem...
Americans use guns to stop violent crime and mass public shootings, 1,500,000 times a year. Those are rapes, robberies and murders that were stopped by the owners of 600 million guns, with over 16.3 million people actually carrying them and not using them to commit crimes.
What we actually have?
--a single teenage girls as moms, problem.
--a democrat policy of releasing violent criminals back on our street policy problem.
--a criminal justice system that keeps letting violent criminals out of jail problem...
Fix those 3 and our gun crime goes away.....
and on top of that.....we have 20 years of actual experience which also shows you are wrong....
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 16.3 million people carrying guns for self defense in 2017...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.
