True but this fact has served us well in the past
Admiral Yamamoto: "You cannot invade mainland United States. There would be a rifle behind each blade of grass."
Where is the barf alert?
> The U.S is the most armed country in the world.
Yes, and the areas with the fewest armed citizens have the highest crime rates.
I’d read that this quote wasn’t made by him.
I confess not reading the link, but here’s something to ask the “thoughtful people”: Which of these massacres were perpetrated by concealed-carry permit holders?
Arms for me but not for thee....
I wish once, just once Pubbies would challenge libturds on the use of the language of the unquantifiable.
Have at it!
Facts? Thoughtful? San Fran Gay-O Chronicle?
Bwahahahahahahahahaah!
Here’s a helpful fact for Mr Benz and his ‘thoughtful people’:
The 2nd Amendment to the Constitution is non-negotiable, regardless of what your selected ‘facts’ imply.
Non-negotiable as in don’t even bother.
“This is the 264th mass shooting this year. Yes, 264 mass shootings in less than a year.”
And this is the 10,000th article about these mass shooters.
I propose a “High-capacity” journalism ban - ONE article on the shooting and that is it - the shooter is no more than a footnote in history - no “continuing coverage” to glorify the creep.
Mercer was obsessed with how much notoriety the other shooters received.
Does anyone in the media make a connection?
"Sure! You can have my wallet.
Makes perfect sense to me.Ted Nugent

Actually not true; Switzerland & Israel are both more heavily armed when you consider military weapons kept at home. Civilian versus military weapons in the home is a difference without a distinction.

Shove your agenda up your petunia all ya want but it aint gonna smell like roses no matter how much fertilizer ya throw on it.....
“Every 6 hours in America more people die from gun violence than were killed by terrorists in all of 2014.”
In the prior sentence, the author says “33,000” are killed per year via gun violence.
Assuming the author lives on a planet similar to earth which has a 24 hour day, there are 1460 six-hour periods in a 365 day year. If 33,000 people are killed in 1460 periods, that means that no more than 22 people were killed by terrorism in 2014.
And if you believe that, you are a flaming innumerate idiot.
