No, The United States Doesn’t Lead The World in Mass Shootings

Wrong!

It's a matter of perception.

Perception is created by screaming the loudest and screaming often enough for people to begin to believe it, and at that point, it becomes 'reality'.

Democrats have the media, about 90% of it. And the have the loudest voices in congress and in Hollywood and just about everywhere. What they say loud and often wins the argument for them, at least with the uninformed who can't be bothered to do their own research. But those uninformed are a huge part of the population, and they're winning the argument. And inch here and an inch there, and they end up passing a bill here and a bill there, and eventually, they end up winning the argument, not only perception-wise, but in societal and legislative terms.

We might be on the right side of the argument, but, who says being right wins all the time?

Redundant might as well be my middle name, but here goes. Gun free zones get people killed. Period. If it’s a gun free zone I don’t go there. I allow for the county courthouse if I have to go there. I pay my property tax by mail. I have a CWP, I dress to carry concealed year around. I carry insurance in case I have to use my firearm. I watch for oddball behaviors in people and avoid them. I stay out of saloons and bad neighborhoods. I arm up as I dress every morning, I wish everyone did. Less mischief that way. These azzholes pick a place where they are the only one armed if they can. They’re not there for a fight, they are there to be the alpha. They are bullshitz and I won’t go down without a fight. However, that’s just me.
