OMG these people are such a stupid bunch of liars. Are they fooling themselves? They aren’t fooling anyone else.

I would bet that ZERO new legal gun buyers, in say the last 3 months, have committed any crimes with their new guns. ZERO.

They have correlation. Its true, the two did go together.

Crime went up. Then gun sales went up.

Much like the Gaia worshipers, they got the order wrong and tried to attribute causation to correlation.

So, any time there's a mass shooting or cities being burned to the ground, there's a spike in gun sales? As it SHOULD be! I'd be worried if people were giving UP their guns! Washington COM-post? You suck.

If the gun and ammo owners in America were truly, the vicious killers as the mediots and elite democrats say we are:

We would have hunted down and killed every BLMer and BLM supporter in a few hours/days after their first acts of protest, violence and mass protest.

First, we would have used their Antifa thugs/buddies to sight in our weapons! Any Antifa survivors would still be running, hiding and sobbing in Canada!

That gun-buying binge is associated with a significant increase in gun violence across the United States.

Those committing the violence(not guns) already had access to firearms. Those who are buying are responding to the ones committing the violence.

Yeah, that’s it, waPo, people Buying guns to defend themselves are causing an increase in gun violence.

Got it.

Yea, legal ownership of guns is what is driving the gangs to shoot each other more. Has the Brookings Institute ever heard that correlation does not necessarily mean causation?

I'm sure tens of thousands of newly released criminals (all wearing masks) and planned violent demonstrations burning down almost entire cities have nothing to do with this uptick in violent crime. Neither does the massive stand downs of police by Progressive politicians have a thing to do with it.

It obviously has everything to do with the increase in gun sales to concerned law abiding citizens who are too stupid to realize the police are there to protect them, their families, and their property. And of course the whole thing is ultimately Trump's fault for driving his supporters into a panicked frenzy by insisting they protect their 2nd Amendment "rights".
