Phase 3, Profit!

This is how it works: Step one, acquire statistics on firearm-related deaths among children ages 0 to 14. Step two, combine that relatively low number with the far greater number of firearm-related deaths involving juveniles and young adults ages 15 to 17, 15 to 19, or even ages 15 to 24. Step three, present the resulting data as the shocking number of “children” (ages 0 to 17, 0 to 19 or 0 to 24) who are subjected to “gun violence” each day/week/month/year. Step four, use the disingenuous statistic to advocate for pre-determined gun control policies by claiming “gun violence is the leading cause of death of children.” [More]

Gun Control Lies Again: ‘Research’ Built on Bad Stats and Bias

David Codrea’s article “‘Study’ on School Shooters Really an Innuendo-Based Hit Piece on Gun Owners” highlights one of the results of gun control advocates’ mass deception. He presents with an “analysis” by Dr. Anne Nassauer, a professor of sociology at the University of Erfurt in Germany. Considering her virtually complete ignorance of the history of the American ‘gun culture’, past and present, the errors in her analysis aren’t surprising. [More]

Nice to know somebody reads more than the title…

No worries. Democrat cultists won’t see these stories and would reject them as racist and fascist if they did.

Truth Still Buried

56% of Americans supported stricter gun control in 2023 as opposed to 78% in 1990. 12% of Americans supported relaxed gun control in 2023 compared to only 2% in 1990. [More]

Numbers have gradually moved in the right direction, but they’re still not enough to win most elections, highlighting the subversive influence of the narrative-parroting cheerleader DSM.

This year, grants will be prioritized for organizations that focus on youth diversion and mentoring, and violence interruption, among other related areas, according to a news release. [More]

It’s working about as well as it does in St. Louis.

And it depends upon what the meaning of the word “decline” is.

Acting In Character

I find this to be the most significant reveal about the increased likelihood of women being killed:

“If their partner has … a history of non-fatal strangulation, sexual assault, and a history of substance abuse.”

So, violent criminal households are significantly riskier environments … ?

Gun-Free School Zones & Shootings Statistic (2024 Updated) [More]

I don’t know if there’s enough to establish a direct correlation/causation link, but it sure is curious how shootings go up with more political and media demands for and enactment of gun laws…

I’d like to see a study showing a timeline for that. Perhaps this could be a useful application for these AI programs we’re told can sort through stuff and reach conclusions it would otherwise take people years to do…

It’s Exactly Where I Might Think, You Charlatans

Gun violence in America is really bad but not where you might think [More]

I wnet through the MSN clickbait slide show so you don’t have to. Basically, agenda “scientists” are trying to convince us that small town America is more dangerous than Detroit, Chicago, Baltimore, etc., using rates.

Here’s the trick: Earlier this year we had a muderer in my home town of Hudson that looks like it could have been averted with some basic judgment about who you welcome into your home and why.

Hudson has a population of around 20,000, making the “gun homicide” rate for 2023 around five per 100,000.

Now look at the overall (not just gun) homicide rate for a significant chunk of Chicago:

The homicide rate for the city’s four North Side police districts (the 18th, 19th, 20th and 24th) last year was 3.2 residents per 100,000, according to analysis of data from the University of Chicago Crime Lab…

What this does is make it look like states with “lax gun laws” are more dangerous in general, to then push the rights swindle narrative that blanket citizen disarmament is needed. The DSM then dutifully regurgitates and parrots. It deliberately diverts attention from the documented reality that violence, as a whole, is predominantly concentrated in small, known, Democrat prohibitionist-controlled areas.
