Gun deaths and gun violence are two different things. Suicides, for the most part, take place with a legally purchased firearm, meaning the owner passed a background check. Homicides and suicides are two different problems that require two solutions.

The universal background checks the the Democrats want are bullshit themselves.
That sounds good in theory, but the intentional delay of game penalties would be unbearable, I think.
True figure for what?
Yeah, me too. I guess this week we learned that it’s mean and unfair to subject the frontrunner to the kinds of attacks he would be subjected to in the general election debate. It’s like saving the dolphins to feed them to lions.
It’s not the numbers, it’s how they are used. The study linked to in the article talks about Missouri’s gun homicide rate rising for 3 years after they repealed their permit-to-purchase handgun law in 2007. I cant find a breakdown of weapons used, but statewide, Missouri had a one year spike in 2008 of about 80 more…
There were 14623 people killed by other people with firearms in 2018. According to the FBI, 85 were killed in their definition of mass shootings.

Some experts say it is due to Biden’s many gaffes hurting his teeth’s own political aspirations, but several sources inside the Biden Campaign say the two had several private disagreements in recent weeks, mostly cob and apple related.
Silly question- have you ever asked to go shooting with her?
An assault rifle has a standard definition. It’s not arbitrary or debatable. A select fire rifle with an intermediate cartridge. You don’t get to call a bicycle a motorcycle just because you fee some type of way.
Very few AR and AK pattern rifles are used in crimes in America.
As a gun owner, i have thoughts. Does she go to gun rallys at her state Capitol? Does she write letters to her national and local legislators? Most people who talk about the boogaloo can’t be bothered to do the small things now. Most just sit at home and repost memes. There will be no civil war. There may be a few…
