At a news conference on the shooting at a Republican baseball practice in Alexandria, Governor of Virginia Terry McAuliffe (D) called for gun control. McAuliffe called for more background checks and ending "gunshow loopholes." McAuliffe said 93 million people are a victim of gun violence a day.

"This is not what today is about but there are too many guns on the street," the governor said Wednesday morning. "We lose 93 million Americans a day to gun violence."

93 million are shot per day?

That’s about half as many who voted in VA, some even legal.

Sounds like the good guys need guns.

Paul told CNN, “When you have no way to defend yourself … the field was essentially a killing field.”

It's a known fact that democrats aren't very good with numbers and basic arithmetic.

McAuliffe: "We Lose 93 Million People A Day"

TRUTH: About 36 people die each day from gunshot wounds

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/us-gun-violence_us_560d9635e4b0af3706e00e20

The majority of gun deaths are accidents and suicides.

Nearly two-thirds (62%) of firearm deaths in the U.S. are suicides.

Trying to think big picture - how did Venezuela get to where it is? I'd say an overly protected ruling class, insulated from the dangers their socialist policies engendered.

We have to watch for the same thing here - a normal overreaction to this attack in Alexandria could be the prerequisite for big-time socialism here.
