Don’t let this person get away with a fake statistic. They are unable to read a table. Here are American murders by type of weapon. There is a giant category called “firearm, type not stated.” Of course some of those are going to be rifles. Of course more people are killed this way than fists. https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2019/crime-in-the-u.s.-2019/tables/expanded-homicide-data-table-8.xls |
I actually lived in that town. It is a close bit community where everyone helps each other. It’s not as high as it is in DC. |

Liar. Don’t let this person mislead you with her own, made-up, fake statistic. Notice how she alleges “Of course some of those are going to be rifles.” Why, PP? Just because you say so? Do you understand the meaning of the term “type not stated?” Apparently you don’t. Put another way: You do not know. People: she is lying to you. She is a grass-roots gun control activist who constantly posts here to lobby you (with fake and distorted statistics she gets from gun control special interest lobbying groups). Don’t believe her. But you don’t need to take my word for it. Do a simple fact check: https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2013/jan/30/greg-abbott/greg-abbott-says-according-fbi-more-people-are-kil/ |
