or in car accidents...
“Democrat presidential hopeful Mike Bloomberg claimed on Sunday that “100 Americans” are “killed by guns” every day.”
That’s a busy-weekend in Chicago or B-more.
Would that be the good guy or the bad guy?
“...“100 Americans” are “killed by guns” every day....”
And several thousand lives are SAVED every day by armed citizens and other Good Guys with guns.
Fascist Mini-Mike has armed bodyguards, because hey, HIS life is more important, but wants to deny YOU the ability to protect yourself.
Newsflash Mike: My life is more important to ME than YOUR life. And I will exercise my Right to keep and carry whenever, wherever, and however I choose.
It’s NOT negotiable.
2,300 Americans die from heart disease daily so let’s outlaw butter
Maybe he is counting thugs from Southside Chicago + the illegal alien gangbangers, etc.
never taken into account those saved by guns. 6849 times a day that is reported a gun used to protect life and limb. How many times that isn’t reported is likely much higher
Killed by guns....I thought they were killed by criminals.
too bad it doesn’t include ......?
Funny.
I have had guns for years and they haven’t killed anyone.
Maybe they are undermotivated lazy guns?
No one has ever been “killed by guns”.
I’d say that’s real progress from Terry McAuliffe’s numbers. Winning!!
Hey, Mike, FAR more people were murdered by their own governments in the 20th century than were ever killed by (someone using a) gun in ordinary street crime. So many more that it isn’t even close. 100 people a day is, indeed a tragedy (if that’s the real figure...and I doubt it) - that’s about 36,500/year, which is 3.65 million people over the course of a century. I am quite sure that the Germans did more than that for 4 years in a row (1941-44) and at least came close in 1945. Stalin did a job like that in several years during the 1930s. Mao did a LOT more. 100 million murdered souls during the 20th century, minimum. That’s about 30 times worse than what you’re complaining about.
You go on being concerned about street crime - that’s a fine goal, to want to reduce it and the related injuries and death. But no one with more than about 2 working neurons is buying your BS about it being necessary to disarm the entire population to reduce street crime - mainly because it sets us up for a future Hitler, Stalin or Mao. Oh, and since one of my great grandfathers was murdered by Stalin’s goons in 1937, and most of his family imprisoned in the USSR for 75 years, I can assure you, Mikey, that I will NOT be giving up my guns - at least not until YOUR goons pry my cooling fingers from my very hot gun. Please tell them to be careful not to slip on all of the hot brass around my body.
Or, to put it a bit more succinctly: Mike, you can take that 60 billion of yours and shove it where the Sun don’t shine, and then GFY.
And that's just in Chicago!
Let’s assume that Mini-Mike’s numbers are correct.
How many of those deaths occured in Democrat-run cities?
Of course, we know that the percentage will be much much greater than 75%.
And, now, we KNOW that he’s lying about those numbers, but the percentage of the real number (whatever it is) will still be correct.
So, keep trying mini, yours is a voice in the septic tank.
And the day before that.
And the day before that.
And the day before that.
Shall I continue?
And how many American lives were saved by guns?
I really need to replace my defective firearms. They just stay where I put them and never jump up and kill anyone.
Gee, I wonder if Mikey would provide us a map of where those 100 per day are.
How bout it Mikey?
It’s bloomberg’s fantasy, that hundreds of “average” Americans, many of whom are likely farmers, mechanics, or fabricators, will die every day, so that he can continue pimping his “No guns for anyone but me” scam. Obviously, he doesn’t see the imagined dead Americans as votes lost for him.
