    hey, remember the parkland shooting when there was an officer at the school, but he ran away with his tail between his legs while nikolas cruz shot up the place?

    man, i guess the solution we need is more people with guns in schools for when the first good guy with a gun runs away and hides, the second or third or fourth can pick up the slack. enough of this liberal paradise bullshit! one time, finally, this good guy with a gun thing will work out!

    Guns Prevent Thousands of Crimes Every Day, Research Shows
    Guns prevent an estimated 2.5 million crimes a year, or 6,849 every day. Most often, the gun is never fired, and no blood (including the criminal’s) is shed.

    anyone remember eric harris and dylan klebold? both were raised in "traditional households", with eric's father in the air force and his mother being a homemaker, weird.

    but, yeah, let's forget that one and just concentrate on how kids are school shooters because there is no way that a mother and father can be abusive to a child and fuck them up. even if they are abusive, that's way better than two loving gay men raising a child, or two caring grandparents. heaven forbid! must protect that social fabric!

    also, police were never defunded.
    First, the vast majority of mass shooters in our study experienced early childhood trauma and exposure to violence at a young age. The nature of their exposure included parental suicide, physical or sexual abuse, neglect, domestic violence, and/or severe bullying. The trauma was often a precursor to mental health concerns, including depression, anxiety, thought disorders or suicidality.

    The peter puffers, like yourself, are willing to watch children get murdered wholesale as long as you can push your agenda.

    That is an absolute bullshit figure. That website is linking an article from Gunfacts.info which is why a 1995 publication in the Journal of Criminal Law and Criminology. In that article, the authors source the data from the NCVS imply that each year there are only about 68,000 defensive uses of guns in connection with assaults and robberies,16 or about 80,000 to 82,000 if one adds in uses linked with household burglaries. Which is derived by interviewing ACTUAL VICTIMS OF CRIME. Where on the flipside, it says a ten-fold increase occurs if you interview a random sample of households, multiply it by the average statistic of crimes commited without verifying of victims were armed, then averaging that against the population of the United States. That number couldn't be more bullshit if it tried.

    Even more embarrassing is the cited benefactor bias of a number of the so called surveys:

    Moreover, their sponsors differed; some were sponsored by pro-gun control organizations (Cambridge Reports, Hart), others were sponsored by anti-control organizations (DMIa, DMIb), while still others were paid for by news media organizations, governments, or by research grants awarded to independent academics.


    Once again, the gun fellating right is using 25 year old sample biased, sponsor biased random surveys using bad math to vastly over inflate the number of Defensive Gun Usages, despite ACTUAL DATA OF VICTIMS clearly contradicting it.

    That's right folks... that's where we are as a society. Thousands of years of evolution, invention, and adaptation... to this. Strangely, two years ago, this would have been an Onion article...

    You understand that you drink filtered and processed water from your shower and toilet everyday right? Most municipalities process wastewater in treatment plants so it may be reused.

    Is it any more exaggerated than the lefts narrative?

    Guns are a tool that save more lives than they are used to take.

    Does it really matter after giving FBI statistics on criminal profiles, stats that even CNN has used in the past couple days and the alt-left still refuses to recognize 50 years of FBI case study?

    At this point I almost hope that the Democrats try to confiscate peoples firearms. Then they can take credit for the massive bloodshed that will take place.

    I linked the first source provided by google. I'm not going to put anymore effort into it than that, you're going to blindly deny any source provided.

    The Democrats control all three branches now, just do it already.
