The object of life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane. ~ Marcus Aurelius“It's a beautiful thing, the destruction of words.”

Countless people are suffering because of Biden's economy and Biden just doesn't give a shit, yet something tells me Shaft and the rest of the far left brigade are going to happily vote for him twice in 2024, all the while they lecture everyone else for not caring enough about other people.
1999-_Gun-related_deaths_USA.jpg
Firearms murders were pretty flat from 1999 to 2014 both before and after the ban lapsed. It looks like your numbers are bullshit. More specifically, it looks like you are trusting a source that is defining gun deaths in such a way as to misrepresent the data. I notice the meaningless word "massacres" is added, I suspect that is where the lie is residing. The only huge jump I see is around 2020-2021. I wonder what other factors might have reduced the means by which we curtail violent crime happened in that time frame.
That graph is from the CDC by way of wikipedia, no friends of the gun rights movement.
If you were not wrong enough, lets look at how many people were killed by rifles. And remember, rifles includes more than just AR-15s, so the real number would be smaller. Looks like under 300 total deaths per year to all rifles, compared to 5000-7000 for pistols.

Because most of the bodies hadn't even been recovered yet.. and you have President Joe Biden calling for the banning of hand guns. It doesn't end with just "assault weapons"... that's just the very first step in an effort to remove all guns from law abiding citizens. If you want to do that, then just present a new Constitutional Amendment and let's vote on it.
You don't even understand how ironic your stupidity in these 2 sentences is... but anyone with an IQ above 12 is laughing at you.See? Don't be so lazy. Or perhaps you endorse mass murder like most Republicans?
