John Lott and history once again are validated.

Private gun ownership helps. But from what I've read a lot of it is simply keeping violent offenders in prison longer.

Bleeding heart liberal judges releasing violent cons into the general population leads to more innocent civilians murdered by violent, repeat offenders.

If people cannot fight back against vioent attackers, theres no incentive for the violent attackers to not be violent, and not attack.

Every schoolkid knows you cant reason with bullies.

Liberals deny the real world. They know the truths and still deny them.

If you removed black perps and black victims from the statistical mix, it likely wouldn’t be a national concern.

I think a lot of the reason homicide rates have dropped is because of advancements in the medical industry. Plus everyone has a cell phone so authorities can be contacted quicker.

So IF the left are truly genuine about cutting down on gun violence, they should be encouraging law abiding citizens to purchase more guns

But we all know the left aren’t truly concerned with gun violence, they only care about disarming law abiding citizens so that criminals will have easier victims
