FBI: More people killed with fists & feet than rifles

[Counselor706]

The FBI released its Uniform Crime Report (UCR) Monday showing that more people were killed in 2020 with fists and feet than were killed with rifles of all kinds.

The UCR shows that 454 people were killed with rifles in 2020 while 657 were killed with “personnel weapons,” which are defined as “hands, fists, feet, etc.”

Oh! Gee
Now… how many with GUNS
Hmmm?? About equal to the WHOLE Vietnam War?? (Less now!)
What the fuck!! Other countries not at war?? Not close to 4 figures (the world has joined us in our stupidity over the last 15 years?)
Americans are INSANE

Take your rifle stat and shove it

New Zealand? Fucking brilliant

Sorry! Covid must have reduced our numbers

Gang violence elsewhere way up from when I last looked at numbers
More drugs? Where’s their main market??

1/5 deaths are suicide? Is that ok with right to lifers??

 

[pecksniff]

I daresay the figures would be different WRT handguns. Most gunshot deaths involve handguns.

 

[LukSkyFokker]

What a desperately helpless stat.

 

[CornusKousa]

What a desperately helpless stat.

That shits all over you and the other anti-civil rights Democrats justifications for being anti-civil rights.

 

[pecksniff]

That shits all over you and the other anti-civil rights Democrats justifications for being anti-civil rights.

Please do not ever again mention civil rights in connection with gun rights.

 

[CornusKousa]

Please do not ever again mention civil rights in connection with gun rights.

Again, gun rights are civil rights.

You and the other anti-civil rights authoritarians fantasies to the contrary notwithstanding of course.

 

[LukSkyFokker]

That shits all over you and the other anti-civil rights Democrats justifications for being anti-civil rights.

No, it doesn't, Poor lil Dumb-Fuck. Why? Because I'm not anti-civil rights, you histrionic dipshit.

 

[CornusKousa]

No, it doesn't, Poor lil Dumb-Fuck. Why? Because I'm not anti-civil rights, you histrionic dipshit.

So you're against any infringement upon the peoples right to bear arms??

2A's "shall not be infringed" registers with you and is all the "gun control" you support then??

Had no idea you were so right wing.

Pro-constitutional carry, pro-capitalism, don't support racism against evil whitey for racial equity..... why are you a Democrat??

 

[LukSkyFokker]

Way to follow up with even more histrionics.

What a gottdamn loser.

 

[CornusKousa]

No histrionics.

Do you support "shall not be infringed" or are you an anti-civil rights "gun control" advocate like peck and almost all other Democrats???

Can't have it both ways bubba.

 

[pecksniff]

So you're against any infringement upon the peoples right to bear arms??

The difference is, gun rights don't matter. They will never make any difference politically.

 

[CornusKousa]

The difference is, gun rights don't matter. They will never make any difference politically.

They do matter for the same reasons they have throughout history, including very recent history, you sticking your head in the sand won't ever change that.

 

[Cubantripod]

I daresay the figures would be different WRT handguns. Most gunshot deaths involve handguns.

The vast majority. That's why after Heller, a ban on AR-15s would not pass a strict scrutiny test.

 

[WillJ8787]

What a desperately helpless stat.

Yep! Moronic!

 

[CornusKousa]

I like how they all deflect and puss out on taking any sort of position.

Must be hard living without any spine.

 

[pecksniff]

They do matter for the same reasons they have throughout history, including very recent history, you sticking your head in the sand won't ever change that.

You learning to shoot and amassing an arsenal won't change the fact that you will never shoot at public authorities with any hope of victory.

 

[SgtSpiderMan]

No histrionics.

Do you support "shall not be infringed" or are you an anti-civil rights "gun control" advocate like peck and almost all other Democrats???

Can't have it both ways bubba.

People have a right to live.

 

[Cubantripod]

You learning to shoot and amassing an arsenal won't change the fact that you will never shoot at public authorities with any hope of victory.

So then shouldn't we be pushing for fewer gun restrictions to even out the odds a little better?

 

[phrodeau]

Yep, fists and feet are deadly weapons. We saw that on 1/6.

 

[pecksniff]

So then shouldn't we be pushing for fewer gun restrictions to even out the odds a little better?

We certainly don't want to do anything to improve the chances of successful insurrection. But it would make no difference if the whole population were armed -- the state always wins. Hussein's Iraqis were armed, but the state was organized.

 

[CornusKousa]

You learning to shoot and amassing an arsenal won't change the fact that you will never shoot at public authorities with any hope of victory.

Again, you're an idiot not paying attention to the fact that they do matter.

That's why authoritarians like you want them taken away so badly.

People have a right to live.

Sure.

What's that got to do with 2A rights and supporting them or not??

 

[Cubantripod]

We certainly don't want to do anything to improve the chances of successful insurrection. But it would make no difference if the whole population were armed -- the state always wins. Hussein's Iraqis were armed, but the state was organized.

Why shouldn't we? "When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation."

Having said that, if you believe that, then why do you push to give more power to the government?

The Constitution is not a suicide pact. Facilitating insurrection is never a legitimate public-policy goal.

 

[CornusKousa]

The Constitution is not a suicide pact.

You're right, which is why we should decentralize/balkanize.

Facilitating insurrection is never a legitimate public-policy goal.

Doesn't have to be an insurrection.... that only becomes needed when one side refuses to let the other live in peace.
