The dirty little secret is that ten major US metropolitan areas (all heavily black and Mexican, all in blue states) account for almost all murders.

But for them, America would have the per capita murder rate of Switzerland.

One word: government.

Life has many dangers that make a gun useful but government is probably at the head of the list.

“...to plant millions of seeds of violence, anger, frustration, and fear that will be passed on for generations to come.”

...this particular portion is the democrat game plan spot on.

Good Point ""The United States is 3rd in murders throughout the world. If you remove Chicago, Detroit, Washington, St. Louis and New Orleans, the United States is then 189th out of 193 countries in the entire world."

DemonRATs are the best argument AGAINST “gun (people) control”.

A more interesting question would be “what sub-group could be removed from calculations of the US homicide rate to make the US appear to be one of the safest countries in the world?”

With a 50% plus unsolved rate for murder in the major cities, you can’t even work with good numbers to determine murder by ethnic group.

“With a 50% plus unsolved rate for murder in the major cities”

The major cities have solved murder rates of between 14% and about 20%. There are just too many murders and not enough resources. The 50% plus unsolved figure applies to the overall murder rate for the entire country. So, the unsolved murder rate in the major cities is 80% to 86%. BTW: The solved murder rate in my small rural county for the last 40 years is 100% AFAIK. Of course, I am aware of only 1 murder in that time.

give millions of men and women the opportunity to practice killing day and night in their hearts, is to plant millions of seeds of violence, anger, frustration, and fear that will be passed on for generations to come. ”

Video games?

“Video games?”

Totally agree. Add to that a poisoned heart and an unstable mind.

“Best argument Against Gun Control.”

The 2nd Amendment was to protect the Republic from tyranny of Government as much as self-protection.

So be it

Threaten no more

To secure peace is to prepare for war

So be it

Settle the score

Touch me again for the words that you will hear evermore

Don’t tread on me

In other words, human nature: vanity, jealousy, lust and greed as Garner Ted Armstrong used to say.

My idea is to chop off all trigger fingers.
