Great points made by Tucker Carlson...

“The party that thinks guns cause violence is no longer pulling them off the street. Why? Because it’s racially insensitive,” Carlson explained. “Aren’t they telling us out of the other side of their mouth that our guns are their problem? Right. Your guns. Not the criminal’s guns. Your guns. Because you’re the criminal now.”

Despite having some of the strictest gun control laws in the nation, Chicago has been consistently ranked one of the most dangerous cities in America. As The Daily Wire previously reported, Chicago has seen an uptick in violence, with 298 shooting victims so far in 2021. This time last year, that number sat at 175 victims.

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot has repeatedly said violence in the city is a result of firearms that were purchased in other states and illegally brought into Illinois.

“Everything [the Democrats] say is untrue and provably so,” Carlson said. “There’s no issue in which they lie more than this one, which tells you a lot.”

According to Carlson, Lightfoot’s statement about out-of-state guns is “a shocking lie” that can be proven false with
“Chicago’s own data. Most violent crimes in Illinois are committed with guns purchased in the state.”

Lightfoot and the Democrats pushing gun control, however, are focused on so-called “assault rifles,” even though the majority of violent crimes in the Windy City are carried out with semi-automatic handguns.

“Rifles are not a real threat in Chicago and they have not been in a long time, if ever,” Carlson said.

The city’s most recent data, from 2011, shows that just one murder took place with a rifle. The reason Lightfoot and her colleagues are laser-focused on “assault weapons,” according to Carlson, is because average Americans own them.

“That’s what they want to take away. Why? Because you own it, not the criminals,” he explained.

Part of Chicago’s gun violence can be traced back to Cook County Prosecutor Kim Foxx, who dropped cases with serious gun crimes “as a matter of policy.”

“They’re not worried about gun crime. They’re worried about you protecting yourself. And not just in Chicago, but across the country,” Carlson said.

“Criminals who commit violence with guns are going free.

Murders are hitting record levels. Meanwhile, you haven’t hurt anyone. You haven’t done anything wrong.”

 
Tucker Carlson agrees with a criticism of the Democratic party? Stop the fucking presses. This thread title should have "BREAKING NEWS" in front of it.
 
What is a “normal” gun owner?
We don’t know until they kill someone

So you are proposing there is nothing you can do until the first kill

Unless they are adjudicated dangerously mentally ill....or they are a convicted felon, then of course not....you idiot.

And

The Criminology of Firearms
In 2004, the National Academy of Sciences reviewed 253 journal articles, 99 books, 43 government publications and some empirical research of its own about guns. The Academy could not identify any gun restriction that had reduced violent crime, suicide or gun accidents.

Why don't gun bans work? Because they rely on voluntary compliance by gun-using criminals. Prohibitionists never see this absurdity because they deceive themselves into thinking that, as Katherine Christoffel has said: "[M]ost shootings are not committed by felons or mentally ill people, but are acts of passion that are committed using a handgun that is owned for home protection."

Christoffel, et al., are utterly wrong. The whole corpus of criminological research dating back to the 1890'sshows murderers "almost uniformly have a long history of involvement in criminal behavior," and that "[v]irtually all" murderers and other gun criminals have prior felony records — generally long ones.

While only 15 percent of Americans have criminal records, roughly 90 percent of adult murderers have prior adult records — exclusive of their often extensive juvenile records — with crime careers of six or more adult years including four major felonies.


Gerald D. Robin, writing for the Academy of Criminal Justice Sciences,notes that, unlike ordinary gun owners, "the average murderer turns out to be no less hardened a criminal than the average robber or burglar."
 
Why should anyone care about Tucker Carlson and what he agrees with? He doesn't seem to be particularly bright, wise, or talented.

Good grief. You're still going to serve the rest of your life in prison for it even if you haven't done anything wrong.


You didn't understand his point........a dumb point, but I was still addressing it......
