There’s studies for that. Many of them, go look them up.
Guns in the home increase risk of suicide and homicide. The first study finds the risk of homicide is nearly 3 times more likely. Suicide, nearly 5 times. 40 percent of households with guns and kids under 18 don’t lock up their guns, and toddlers kill more…

... until they become Freelee and eat 52 bananas a day and become radioactive.

But I think many of us would be at least a little encouraged if we could just convince people that a gun in the home has its own inherent danger, regardless of the owner. Just *convince* people. Not even change the laws. Just get more people to take gun ownership more seriously. I mean, at least people know that…

It’s about the consequences.

# Out of curiosity, what % of gun owners do you think end up doing stuff like this?

the percentage is much higher than the % of non-gun-owners who end up shooting people.

I get that, and I would love if we would increase regulations to make sure people ARE responsible, and that unstable people are not out buying guns. I’m 100% for being much more restrictive of who has them and for mandating significant amounts of training to those that do have them.

Yea. Google knows things about me I wouldn’t tell Jesus Christ himself...

Your post leads me to wonder: Is the amount of time it would take to metabolize cocaine different if you cut your hands and feet off first?

Filliam H. Muffman beg to differ.

I’m just happy Downing Street doesn’t have an official pet pig.

Most important Brexit analyis to date.

This is exactly how men writing novels is “literary fiction” but the same book written by a woman is categorized as “romance.”

It wasn’t supposed to be an academic study. It was supposed to be journalism.

And how many writers really have enough clout to choose their publisher? You want to get published, you take what you can get. (And which major publisher that takes women as seriously as men should she have picked? This is an industry-wide…

This is insulting to her journalistic integrity and how much risk she took, but not surprising. I have noticed that a lot of books authored by women are marketed to fail. A few years ago, I decided to make an effort to read more female authors (and have read some amazing books as a result), but I can't get past the…

It would be horribly tragic if my ability to protect myself or my family were to be taken away, but that’s exactly what Democrats are determined to do by banning semi-automatic handguns.

“Hello, robot they call ‘Tom’.”

He tweets in defense of the animals. He’s all right with me.

They killed their child. They have several other children. The family makes their living by selling these snake oil cures and have been vocally unrepentant about killing their own son and trying to publicly persuade idiots like you that they were just well-meaning fuckups when they murdered their child by neglect and…

So we’re not the only country with an incredibly unfair and two tiered justice system? Great. Parents whose stupidity and proud ignorance kills their own child 3-4 months. Rich preppy unapologetically rapes a woman behind a dumpster, summer in prison. Cops kill unarmed citizens on film, no trials (generally) but when…
