Gun Threads - Merged

Says a lot about someone who gets a kick out of posting and pointing fingers at other peoples misfortune.

So posting factual news about a shooting in a gun thread states that?
 
It shows how there is a gun issue in this country when a 4 year old shoots his mother after she brags about him being able to shoot.

What is shows is we have a gun problem in this country when a parent brags about how their four year old can shoot a gun, and then ironically he shoots his bragging mother while she is driving in car.

There is no "gun problem".  That's all created in liberals ridiculous hysterical minds.

And ironically, there you are gleefully making light of someone else's unfortunate choice, all for making some stupid political point, again, for about the 10,000th time.

Your source shows some 270,000,000 firearms in the US. 29.7 Homicides per million with that amount of firearm ownership is actually quite low.

Much of the political thinking about violence in the United States comes from unfavorable comparisons between the United States and a series of cherry-picked countries with lower murder rates and with fewer guns per capita. We’ve all seen it many times. The United States, with a murder rate of approximately 5 per 100,000 is compared to a variety of Western and Central European countries (also sometimes Japan) with murder rates often below 1 per 100,000. This is, in turn, supposed to fill Americans with a sense of shame and illustrate that the United States should be regarded as some sort of pariah nation because of its murder rate.
 
Note, however, that these comparisons always employ a carefully selected list of countries, most of which are very unlike the United States. They are  countries that were settled long ago by the dominant ethnic group, they are ethnically non-diverse today, they are frequently very small countries (such as Norway, with a population of 5 million) with very locally based democracies (again, unlike the US with an immense population and far fewer representatives in government per voter). Politically, historically, and demographically, the US has little in common with Europe or Japan. https://mises.org/blog/mistake-only-comparing-us-murder-rates-developed-countries
