I found that part especially weird.
Teddy Kennedy’s Oldsmobile killed more people than all of my firearms, combined.
Consider the source.
As such, DILLIGAFF.
Do I Look Like I Give A Flying....
maybe the 12 deaths were intruders or home invaders and died by the gun/homeowner and the 5 deaths were gunless/homeowner at the hands of intruders. That would be one way of explaining it.
Piece of cake...shouldn't take more than 6 months.
Leaves out the area the people live. Where I live the chance of having someone break in your home approaches zero. Home invaders get shot. They move to places like California where the homeowner is more likely to go to jail than the burglar.
And how many are killed by knives and heavy objects?
Ridiculous fixed study.
homicide is sometimes justified.
It is not in and of itself a crime.
It just means one person killed another.
This stupid article is not claiming more MURDERS. Just more homicides.
John Lott looked into similar statistics about 20 years ago.
What happens is that handgun ownership is higher in high-crime areas (naturally). And that in high-crime areas, the kind of people who are most likely to have somebody who may want to come kill them (criminals) are more likely to have a gun.
So 0.8 more humans with guns will die each year, due to a gun
in the home?
Yikes. The horrors.
Bad reporting. Think how many people will be away tonight
until four in the morning worrying about this.
Between 0.0% and 0.000000001% of the populace.
Is this the AP that told us if we get vaccinated we would not get Covid.
Well, I guess that settles that.
I is kind of obvious that people who have guns will shoot more people than people who don’t have guns. It’s nearly impossible to shoot someone if you don’t have a gun. I wonder if the study differentiates between legal and illegal gun ownership. There was a case near here where a girl was killed inside her house by people with guns outside shooting into the house.
Duhh.... a person is killed with a gun more times in a home with a gun... than in homes without a gun.
Duhhh.... that sounds logical
Are they counting the hood? Or just lawful gun owners?
Studies like these have been reported by the media for years. I recall Gary Kleck taking one apart (Arthur Kellerman) saying that you might as well consider possession of insulin as a diabetes risk factor because a diabetic likely has insulin in their home.
When seconds count, cops are minutes away.
I wonder if a study of if there is a higher occurrence of homicides in gay households vs. hetero households, will ever see the light of day?
How about do a study on the homicide risk in areas with a large proportion of “13/90s”, or “Guests from the south”?
Hmmm?
