Last week someone from FR posted up a link showing all the gun crime/murders and how it was happening in most cities run by dems.
Anyone have that article or know what publication it came from? I would like to have it to prove a point to a liberal fool I work with. Not that it'll do any good as he's already far beyond brainwashing.
Thanks in advance...
You can put all the facts you want in front of a liberal and it won’t matter. They would rather give up their liberty than make what they see as a compromise of their values.
I don’t know who you are trying to convince of what but you can dig through FBI stats. Its not easy but it can be revealing and pretty much irrefutable. You cannot glean much from racial components other than black/white male/female. They group Hispanic under white.

These are both FBI links and I am sure you can find many fact and sadistics here on some other of their pages.
A map showing where gun crimes occur would be good. Kind of like the one that New York paper did on gun permits.
I don’t know if there’s any truth to the following, but it’s circulating in emails- take with a grain of salt until someoen verifies the stats:
See the statistic at the bottom of the page.............
