Hillary Clinton Shares Deceptive Gun Violence Chart: ‘It’s the Guns’ Causing Crimes
Breitbart ^ | 05/26/2022 | Awr Hawkins

Posted on 05/26/2022 2:00:26 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Thursday Hillary Clinton tweeted a deceptive gun violence chart and added text suggesting, “It’s the Guns” causing crimes.

The chart, published by VOX, is from Gun Policy. It shows the U.S. vs. its “peers,” a category which appears to consist of “high income” countries.

Limiting the comparison of the U.S. and other countries on the basis of this one category allows gun control proponents to sidestep the opportunity to contrast the U.S. and its next-door neighbor, Mexico. (On August 17, 2016, Breitbart News reported that although Mexico had “restrictive” gun control — including comprehensive background checks — it still had a homicide rate over five times higher than the rate in the U.S.)

90% of the gun crimes in America happen in voting precincts that vote majority Democrat. Clearly it is Democrats that cause gun crime.

Just like the SUV was a black supremacist, not the Waukesha black supremacist driving it.

The entire Western Hemisphere is pretty violent, as are parts of Asia and Africa:

For a large country we do okay, about the same as India.

She and her husband have a lot of dead bodies in their wake.
I would think that being associated with the Clintons is more dangerous than any gun being present.

Vince Foster agrees.

1. Always beware of someone who shows you a graph without showing the origin (x,y 0,0), the full definition of the axes, and an attribution to the source of the data.

2. Transnational comparisons are highly suspicious in general, but in this example, I would ask - how does Switzerland or Japan compare to the United States? And the answer is - this is a highly suspect comparison because neither Switzerland or Japan has a hyper violent urban minority segment of the population. Take that out of the gun violence statistics - and I am sure that the US is no longer an outlier.

Mexico had “restrictive” gun control. They do.

But the cartels have every kind of weapon imaginable. And Mexico does nothing about because if they confront the cartels, they will end up found inside of a 55 gallon drum burned up and beheaded.

“It’s the Guns” causing crimes....

Well if that is the case, gun stores should be a no go zone.

How about the upcoming NRA convention? I went to one and there were lots of guns on display and LOTS of men and women carrying. Felt safe as could be there. Dangerous part was walking out of the convention center to my truck in downtown Houston.

About 2500 abortions / day in the US. No outrage there by the left. Clearly the left dies not give a rip about children just politics.
