Sorry... stupid site. Guns didn't kill these people, people killed these people. A knife doesn't stab someone any more than a gun shoots someone.
Every life lost is a sad thing. I'm against the death penalty. I'm also against abortion. I don't like shootings, knifings, spoonings, or hot dogging, or any other way someone dies.
This website is just complete bull **** and nonsense. The people who support getting rid of guns are either:
A - Are totally ignorant of why our Constitution gave us the right to bare arms.
B - Are blindly following this mantra because they've been told to and haven't questioned it.
C - Cannot explain why gun deaths are highest in places with the strictest gun laws.
D - Supports Marxism and understand the only way for this to work is to take guns from the citizenry.

Ok, but the Constitution doesn't give you those rights. It says those rights can't be infringed. We have to stand on that fact, and it is a fact, because the Constitution can be altered. Those are natural rights given by our maker.
Also, the site shows who is committing most of the murders. And most of the White supremacists don't appear to be White.

I usually bear arms when my arms are bare.[This message has been edited by randye (edited 10-15-2020).]

Yes, I know the whole argument... what is a militia, the "," and all that other stuff. The Supreme Court has ruled in favor of the intent of the 2nd Amendment MULTIPLE times.
Also, the Federalist papers that were put in the newspaper to create discussion on the ideals that would be used to draft the Constitution were very explicit.
Simple website to ensure we all know what the purpose of being armed and the 2nd amendment:
https://thefederalistpapers...ent-this-says-it-all
Furthermore, it cannot be changed. It requires 3/4ths of the states to ratify any new amendments... regardless. It will never happen.
EDIT: Tired of this argument. Everyone by now knows that we have 100% right to own guns. We're all well past that since SCOTUS has made even their most recent ruling. The question now is what will Democrats do, knowing that the "language" discussion hasn't worked? With the rioting they've sponsored and the crime they've created in their cities... gun ownership has skyrocketed. There is now something absurd like 3-4 guns for every one resident in the United States with growing support for weapons on both the left and the right. I'm even considering buying one... and it was never even a thought, and I didn't want to even be bothered with the hassle...[This message has been edited by 82-T/A [At Work] (edited 10-15-2020).]

When looking at that site ignore the 4 FEATURED pics at the top. They'll use old pics. The White-ish one (Weir) they have up now is 5 months old & has been used multiple times for some reason.
Rules and laws don't matter anymore. Just look at the FBI that won't act on obvious criminality at the highest level.
I'm certain you're being too flippant about what groups in .gov intend to do. They already have a record of the assault weapons ban and nobody did a thing about it. It just expired.
Emergency powers gives a tiny group of people all power over everybody and they will continue to infringe on your gun rights. No one expected a shut down.
Man's laws always fail.[This message has been edited by sourmash (edited 10-15-2020).]

Defund Gun Control
https://youtu.be/69IGhZd7j3Y
| quote |
Every year over 30,000 people die from a gun-related death. The vast majority of these deaths are suicides. The majority of the remaining deaths are from the inner-city gang and drug violence. The remaining is Generalized violence and accidents.
As tragic as these deaths are, we have 400 million guns and over 300 million people in this country.
30,000 is roughly .01%. Not 1% and not .1% but .01% of the population.
That is exceedingly far from the epidemic that anti-gun politicians constantly claim.
However, every year, we spend millions of dollars and countless hours of time paying for, talking about, and implementing gun control laws that do little to nothing to save the 30,000 lives that are lost every year.
In 2000 Maryland spent 5 million dollars on a bullet ID program. The program lasted 15 years and didn’t solve a single crime. Not a single one. And now California is doing the same thing.

Many Antigun politicians are in favor of a national gun buyback.
A national gun buyback program would on the low end cost the American people 3.2 billion dollars and on the high end 16 Billion Dollars.
Anti Gun Politicians also want to force people to registrar their AR-15s and Standard capacity magazines under the National Firearms Act. To register each one of your guns and magazines under the National Firearms Act will Cost you $200 per gun and per magazine over ten rounds.
Even voluntary local gun buybacks are a waste of money. In 1974 Baltimore had a buyback paying people $50 a gun for 3 months.
They got 13,400 guns. The city spent $670,000 to buy broken and useless guns that weren’t a danger to anyone in the first place.
No one is selling good guns for $50 dollars when you can take the same gun to a gun store and get triple that amount.
If you adjust that amount for inflation, that’s 3.6 million dollars! They’re literally funding criminals new gun purchases! It’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen just to say you’re doing something. How about doing something that actually works! (https://www.baltimoresun.com/news/bs-...)
Instead of spending our financial resources or human capital and energy passing, implementing, or enforcing useless gun control laws, we should be addressing the underlying mental health issue of suicides, the Underlying social-economic issues of inner-city violence, and the lack of firearm education among the masses that result in accidental deaths.
Doing this would actually save lives instead of purporting to save lives.
The DEFUND GUN CONTROL Movement is about divesting our precious resources from Useless and unconstitutional Gun Control laws and focusing these resources on addressing the underlying issues of suicide, inner-city violence, and accidental gun deaths AND Protecting the second amendment instead of forcing the American people to pay for the vio |

A More Complete Picture: The Contours of Gun Injury in the United States
| quote | The story of gun violence in the United States is often told in terms of the tragic deaths that come with numbing regularity—an average of 100 gun deaths each day. But an often overlooked part of today’s gun violence crisis is injuries, and these nonfatal injuries are also occurring with disturbing frequency, with many more gun injuries than gun deaths.
Understanding the contours of these injuries—where, to whom, and how—is essential for efforts to develop solutions. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the federal agency responsible for collecting data to protect the US from dangerous health threats, has faced challenges with the expansion of its injury data collection, an essential requirement for obtaining more reliable numbers on this under-recognized aspect of gun violence. The CDC’s estimate for 2015 totaled 84,997 nonfatal firearm injuries, but this estimate was qualified by a confidence interval of 36,636 to 133,357 injuries, too large a range to estimate the true burden of gun injury with accuracy or to know whether year-to-year increases or decreases indicate true changes or rather, are an artifice of data limitations. In the face of increasing scrutiny of the reliability of this data, the CDC recently removed 2016 and 2017 nonfatal injury data for firearms and all other injury types from its website. Everytown for Gun Safety strongly supports equipping the CDC with the funds necessary to thoroughly measure and examine gun violence.

That last sentence, they won't fully examine the problem because it isn't PC. They fully examine the results only.

Everytown is one of the Bloomberg anti-gun groups seeking to strip your constitutional rights under the guise of protecting you. They are not to be trusted ever.
