Keeping kids safe around guns...the way that actually works...gun safety in schools...

[progressive hunter]

Americans use their legal guns 1.1 million times a year to save lives...to stop rapes, robberies, murders and even mass public shootings.....

Nope... never happens.

All of the above are facts.....

Only in the tiny-dicked land of NRA Fetishists.

In the real world

33,000 gun deaths
70,000 gun injuries
400,000 gun crimes
$270,000,000,000 in Economic losses...

EVERY YEAR

WHY DID YOU LEAVE OUT THE LIVES SAVED BY GUNS???
THEY FAR OUTPACE THOSE NUMBERS

Easy on the Caps fella..it'll be aight.

WHEN CALLING OUT A LIAR it needs the bump

 

[JoeB131]

High rate of suicide in your leftist shill cubicle center?

Naw one of my neighbors decided to excercise his second amendment rights by blowing his brains out.. but not before he sent bullets flying into the common parking lot we all use.

Because frankly, those numbers are pretty ******* subjective.

You have on one side the ridiculous Kleck study which claims 5 million DGU's.

Compared to the FBI states, that say there are only 46,000 a year. Those are pretty wild numbers that really don't jive with each other.

Here's the number I go with, from the FBI. Only 201 gun homicides were ruled as justifiable homicide by civilians. That's how ******* rare it is.

EVERY YEAR

1.1 million times a year Americans use their guns to save lives, stopping rapes, robberies, murders and even mass public shootings....

Over 25 years, as more Americans own and carry guns our gun murder rate went down 49%, our gun crime rate went down 75%, our violent crime rate went down 72%...

Facts.

you have to include suicides in your gun death number because the murder number is so low.....and of those murdered 70-80% are criminals engaged in crime in democrat party controlled inner cities......

As to money........Americans stopping violent criminals saves lives.....and they also save lots of money...

Annual Defensive Gun Use Savings Dwarf Study's "Gun Violence" Costs - The Truth About Guns


So figuring that the average DGU saves one half of a person’s life—as “gun violence” predominantly affects younger demographics—that gives us $3.465 million per half life.

Putting this all together, we find that the monetary benefit of guns (by way of DGUs) is roughly $1.02 trillion per year. That’s trillion. With a ‘T’.

-------------------------


When compared to the (inflation adjusted from 2002) $127.5 billion ‘cost’ of gun violence calculated by by our Ludwig-Cook buddies, guns save a little more than eight times what they “cost.”

Which, I might add, is completely irrelevant since “the freedom to own and carry the weapon of your choice is a natural, fundamental, and inalienable human, individual, civil, and Constitutional right — subject neither to the democratic process nor to arguments grounded in social utility.”


So even taking Motherboard’s own total and multiplying it by 100, the benefits to society of civilian gun ownership dwarf the associated costs.

If guns save lives and the US has tons of guns.
Why is your murder rate so many times greater than anywhere in the civilized world ?

Now, don't ask him that question, because he will tell you that the United Kingdom is a Dystopian country of Crime and Sharia... which is what a moron without a passport would say.

We're a nation full of descendants of violent people who threw Britain out of their country.

The UK is many times safer than the US. The stats bear that out. I think it is primarily because we have sensible gun laws.

 

[JoeB131]

Why is the UK rape, burglary, and robbery rate so high?

They aren't... The thing is, these stats are collected differently in the UK than the US. Rape, particularly is particularly subjective, since half of all rapes aren't reported in the US and only 3% of rapists go to prison.

We're a nation full of descendants of violent people who threw Britain out of their country.

Um, yeah... my ancestors came from Germany... most of my friends ancestors came from Poland, Italy and Ireland.

Again, way to keep kids safe around guns.

Don't have guns in the house...

Any home without a gun is a home any child of mine would not be visiting.

 

[ThunderKiss1965]

Again, way to keep kids safe around guns.

Don't have guns in the house...

Had a firearm in every home I've lived in since the day I was born. I was safe and every child was as well. Almost 50 years and not one accident because gun safety has always been a priority.

And you are wrong. You used to be okay, but you have a violent crime rate that has always been higher than the continent and is even higher than the U.S.....and as our gun crime rate has been going down, your gun crime rate, after you banned guns, is going up.....and your violent crime rate is through the roof......

[Rustic]

In general violence pretty much only happens in inner cities, by blacks killing other blacks. That is the bulk of the crime, and violence in the U.S. Stay out of drug, and gang areas, and you are very safe here.

Meh, someone shot himself to death not 50 feet from where I am sitting right now in 2011. He wasn't black, we weren't in an inner city.

Still an urban area
