re: #125 lawhawk

Where do you get your information, because it is … how can I be charitable here?
Completely and utterly wrong. Not even in the same ballpark wrong.

For every homicide, there are 2 suicides. Out of the 33,000 firearms fatalities every year, 22,000 are suicide. 11,000 are homicides. And in most homicides, they are among people known to the shooter (domestic relations, spouses, siblings, children, parents) or acquaintances. Gangbangers are not the source of most homicides.

Sorry to break it to you. Even if the gang shootings get most of the press, the steady drumbeat of homicides churns on 24/7/365.

That was explained to him the last time he blamed gangbangers.
