With the advent of the Internet, including but not limited to Wikipedia, you don't need to even leave your room to "visit" other countries, people, cultures, to the extent of learning, at least, something about them. Actually, you could (have) do(ne) that even before the Internet, by watching documentaries or - horribile dictu! - reading books.

It conveniently ignores crimes, suicides and accidents where gun ownership is involved as well as people being shot trying to defend themselves with a firearm. Likewise, 'every day' is rather meaningless with a population the size of the United States'.

Oh good lord have mercy!!! I tried my best to stay out of this, but your post was really moronic. I am sorry, but it is truly moronic. Obama is a horror show and your self righteousness despite an obvious ignorance is funny. Here is what the USA thinks about your savior Obama. http://www.cbsnews.com/htdocs/popQuestion/questionResults.html?url=http://poll.cbs.com/poll?event_id=7798&q1=5&q2=5&q3=5&q4=5&q5=5&q6=5&q7=5&q8=5&q9=5&q10=5&&obama_grades_year_one$ Note that poll is done by the left-wing CBS amd yet the results still come out the same. Obama makes people miss Bush and that is a sad thought!

The figure is close to 1 million times a year, last I looked it up. And it's not meaningless to the people who have defended their lives and property. There's no getting around this fact: since the widespread adoption of right-to-carry in the USA, violent crime has been decreasing, not increasing. Say whatever you like -- you simply can't get around the fact that personal liberties regarding firearms do not *increase* violence. -- -Brandon http://www.brandonstaggs.com/c64.html |
