So in your narrow mind, the only gun violence is "mass shootings"?? Gee,
then we have a really low number of gun violence incidences, but what do
we do about the 100's of thousands of others?

100s of thousands?

Cite that


No problem!!

Since 1973? OK. Do you want to talk about what killed the most kids
since then?

Hint, more kids were killed in cars since Newtown than were killed at
Newtown (as of this afternoon)
You can find that stat at CDC (1702 a year 0-14 in the last year on
their site. 20 every 107 hours)
Why doesn't that make the news?


If we really wanted to make a dent in violent death we would end the
drug war.


That would certainly make a dent. Fact remains, some 90% of gun crimes
were committed with a gun that someone either stole or "borrowed" from a
legal owner.


Why don't we just make theft illegal?
That should stop it.



So what do you all think of 30 clips?
