There is no gun problem...Goebbels media and progressives at it again!

So the article and writer applauds a tyrannical government taking away a fundamental right of self defense...and the liberals/progressives are supposed to be the champions of human rights? We do NOT have a gun problem in the USA, we have a lying, agenda driven progressive media problem. For one, “gun violence” is at 1940’s levels and in most cases even lower (3.2 per 100,000) for rigged numbers, but that’s low. First off, 67% of those numbers are suicides and USA still has lower suicide rates than France, Japan and Iceland, all anti-gun countries. Not low enough? Why is self defense lumped in with those numbers?In Europe they don’t own guns so how can that be compared when there’s no self defense via gun? Self defense-—take that out-— Now we’re at about 2 per 100,000, wow, that’s approaching early 1900’s numbers. But wait, there’s more-—the final 15% of so called “gun violence” -—85% of that number is gang violence and drug lords...Guess what, they will kill each other regardless and that’s mostly inner city progressive areas. Take that out and now we’re at .47 out of 100,000——Holy moly, that’s lower thank Europe plus we have 300,000,000 guns in circulation. Proof, more guns equals less innocent people dying. There is no “gun” problem.
