Nancy Pelosi: There Have Been ‘over a Dozen’ Mass Shootings Since Friday
Breitbart ^ | 05/03/2023 | AWR HAWKINS

Posted on 05/03/2023 8:14:50 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Rep. Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) latest gun control push includes the claim that there have been “over a dozen” mass shootings in America since Friday.

Pelosi tweeted this claim Tuesday and did not include any citation to substantiate it:

We have had over a dozen mass shooting since last Friday, leaving families and communities devastated — and still, Republicans would rather ban books than assault weapons.

Democrats will never stop fighting to keep America's children safe from guns. -NP

— Nancy Pelosi (@TeamPelosi) May 2, 2023

The Associated Press, USA Today, and Northeastern University maintain a database of mass shootings, defining the incidents as those “in which four or more people were killed other than the perpetrator.” This measurement has been standard for identifying mass shootings or mass murders for years.

She could slur out that there were 100 million billion shootings and the media would paint it as fact. Worse, many in the public would believe it.

And yet the places with the most shootings are places where Democrats have passed strict gun control laws. How does she explain this seeming contradiction?

A mass shooting is defined as “4 people involved”....so at least 48 people involved in a nation of about 335,000,000 people.

If she’s referring to Chicago specifically she’s probably not wrong.

I wouldn’t be surprised if she was talking about Chicongo.

additionally Nancy says every crime is a “shooting” because it could be and everything is a mass shooting because it justifies her tyranny....

At least put some Bloody Mary mix or orange juice in your morning vodka, Nancy. You’ll still slur a bunch of stupid stuff, but you’ll look a *little* more dignified as opposed to drinking the vodka straight out of the bottle.

As long as it’s gang-bangers killing each other, let it play on! In fact, let’s air-drop pallets of 9mm ammo for them.

Let me make sure that I understand, Nan:
You’re saying that because criminals are killing people, we must take away from non-criminals their most effective means of protecting themselves from the criminals.

Have I got that right?

The Democrat establishment clearly wants to run on gun control and abortion.

The Republicans should hold them to answer on the economy and illegal immigration.

The media really don’t want to let that happen.

Chicongo has at least one mass shooting every week.

Check out the Shotspotter data at HeyJackass!.
