    Guns aren't the problem. And yes violence actually goes down every year

    Sounds like religion and mental illness contribute more to the issue. Single parent families too? Media?

    Just one fucktards point of view

    Canada loves guns and hunting. They don't kill each other at the rate we do. Liberal fuckwad michael Moore's documentary told me that 15 years ago

    The shooter today in San Bernardini was US born. I am FOR the Syrian refugees. APAG's brilliant poast the other day sealed it for me.

    Regardless of your stance on the issue, pretty poor taste to wantonly dismiss thousands of gun deaths to fit an agenda.

    it is pretty disgusting. Gang violence is a serious issue that no one actually cares about. And yes that includes Republicans and democrats, all of whom skate over the issue because they are scared to talk about race

    "...the National Academy of Science reviewed hundreds of gun control regulations and could not find one that reduced violent crime or murder."

    "...the National Academy of Science reviewed hundreds of gun control regulations and could not find one that reduced violent crime or murder."

    But it reduces gun violence and murder. Didn't you know that it's better to be beat to death with a baseball bat than shot through the skull?

    We as a country just sustained, as promised by the enemy who has declared war against the United States, a Jihad attack.

    Gun control blabber is nothing but designed cover for the terrorists.

    I would say gang violence isn't as much race as it's socio economic. Gangs in bigger cities are populated by a poor economic segment, which the majority are minorities. Poor white people are in gangs as well. Basically, middle class black, hispanic, european, and asian kids aren't in gangs, just like middle class whites generally aren't either.

    It is a poverty issue. And far more blacks live in poverty than whites, but that doesn't change the fact that they murder at a far greater rate

    It is pretty poor taste to wantonly exaggerate thousands of gun deaths to fit an agenda.

    The greatest generation grew up in poverty and the only people they shot were Germans and Japanese, not each other.

    So fuck that argument about poverty.

    The murder rate peaked in the early 90s because of the crack epidemic, which is inextricable from poverty. The murder rate last year was lower than in 1968 at about 14,250. Considering that America is much more diverse now then in the late 60s can you really try to claim that the murder rate is tied in any way to non-whites being more likely to kill?

    The homicide rate per 100k in 1950 was 5.1, the rate in 2013 was 5.2.
