    Mass Shooting that don’t happen in other countries- happens…

    https://www.cnn.com/2022/06/24/europ...hnk/index.html

    Two dead, 10 wounded. Mass shooting by definition.

    CNN couldn’t help themselves since the victims were gay, and since it’s Norway, it is almost surely a white guy who did it…

    Never mind that globally we are actually #11 on a list that doesn't even include Africa, China or Mexico.

    It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

    Take out Chicago, LA and NYC and the US would be at the bottom of any list of crime statistics.

    In this case the raw numbers are important, not the rate. Chicago had over 800 murders in 2021, LA had 397, and NYC 485.

    St Louis, MO had the highest murder rate in 2021, but only 194 murders.

    P.S. I believe the 2021 numbers are not considered final yet.

    Some of those gunshot victims will have undoubtedly actually have died of Covid.

    States are the worst way to look at deaths, cities aren’t even insightful. You need zip code or even block by block. That shows the folly of gun control laws. The same laws in a state have WILDLY different outcomes based on local realities. And then you have to look over a few years so that outlier events in a single year don’t give false impressions.
