They want a database of all new sales including long guns.

It’s people violence, not gun violence. No matter how much you prove to these fools, they still drool and lick the windows.

That was quick! Do you have it set up such that if Michigan is a “Topic,” then you automatically get pinged?

It seems that certain areas of Michigan have much more gun violence than other areas despite not having greater gun ownership per capita. What do the areas of Michigan that have high gun violence have in common? Are there demographic similarities?
To: wac3rd
I don’t know. I’m far away.

LOL Democrats in Michigan are now a small minority in the state legislature so they’re reduced to publicity stunts.

Why don’t the Michigan Dems set up shop in Detroit, Flint or Saginaw, and start demanding a halt to gun violence from the street corners? Let’s set how far that gets them.
To: madison10
Considering the fact that the defensive shooting rate in Detroit is some 2200% higher than the national average, they might just become a statistic.

There will NEVER be an inch of common ground between the antis and those who are Pro-2A. Which is why people like Toomey and Manchin are the worst of the worst as they are the only ones who do not recognize this simple fact.

Personally, I'm not sure. What do you think they are?

Everybody I know in Michigan’s UP is armed to the teeth. Maybe the pasties, whiskey, saunas and Finnish sisu keep them from killing each other.

Pretty much the whole state is armed to the teeth outside of Ann Arbor and K-Zoo.
