So you can’t provide a source for your own assertion?
In that case, I’m calling bullsh1t on it.
So you are also having difficulty reading exactly what I posted? The guy asked for sources, I provided a site with the largest source of independent sources collected on the web. He can’t be bothered to read them & you failed to comprehend what I posted? One more time: The sources he requested are posted IN THIS THREAD, but as you seem to be having difficulty with even mundane tasks & would rather “call bullsh1t” here’s the link again:
http://www.gunfacts.info/
Gun Facts is a free e-book that debunks common myths about gun control. It is intended as a reference guide for journalists, activists, politicians, and other people interested in restoring honesty to the debate about guns, crime, and the 2nd Amendment.
Gun Facts has 112 pages of information. Divided into chapters based on gun control topics (assault weapons, ballistic finger printing, firearm availability, etc.), finding information is quick and easy.
Each chapter lists common gun control myths, then lists a number of documented and cited facts (with nearly 500 detailed footnotes). Thus when a neighbor, editor or politician repeats some sound bite about firearm control policy, you can quickly find that myth then rebuke with real information.
It speaks volumes for your character that are are wiling to accuse someone of lying simply because you lacked the faculty to find a post in this thread…
& in other news:
Bit inconvenient for Obumbles gun control program that his regime allowed Iraqi families to keep full auto AK47’s at home for protection….& they have a lower murder rate than the parts of the US that have the strictest gun control laws.:p
The Swiss are 4th highest in firearm ownership in the world, with a difference. Switzerland has probably the highest ownership of high powered automatic military rifles on the planet.
Every Swiss male who is conscripted into the army keeps his rifle at home when he’s finished his conscription. Until 2 or 3 years ago, he also got 50 rounds of ammunition. The said ammunition for the rifles can be bought in Switzerland too.Yet the last statistics show about twice as many people were stabbed in Switzerland than were shot.
Switzerland, despite all the high powered automatic military rifles in basically every home, has a very low gun crime rate.
It’s comparable to New Zealands.
So you’re saying that a population with almost 100% gun ownership has the least crime?:p

Virtually all gun control advocates say that 30 bullets in a magazine is far too many for self-defense or hunting — even if they have never gone hunting and never had to defend themselves with a gun. This uninformed and self-righteous dogmatism is what makes the gun control debate so futile and so polarizing. Anyone who faces three home invaders, jeopardizing himself or his family, might find 30 bullets barely adequate. After all, not every bullet hits, even at close range, and not every hit incapacitates. You can get killed by a wounded man. As someone who once taught pistol shooting in the Marine Corps, I am not the least bit surprised by the number of shots fired. I have seen people miss a stationary target at close range, even in the safety and calm of a pistol range. We cannot expect everybody to know that. But we can expect them to know that they don’t know — and to stop spouting off about life- and-death issues when they don’t have the facts. Most factual studies show no reduction in gun crimes, including murder, under gun control laws. A significant number of studies show higher rates of murder and other gun crimes under gun control laws. How can this be? It seems obvious to some gun control zealots that, if no one had guns, there would be fewer armed robberies and fewer people shot to death. But the great bulk of the studies show that gun control laws do not in fact control guns. On net balance, they do not save lives but cost lives. Gun control laws allow some people to vent their emotions, politicians to grandstand and self-righteous people to “make a statement” — but all at the cost of other people’s lives.

Nothing…..except that it isn’t democracy if the views of some of the gun-lobby are to be accepted.
Read my post; it is only democracy if the gun-lobby decide they are not being oppressed by a tyrannical government…
…even if it is their own democratically elected government.
So who gets to decide when this ‘tyrannical’ government should be overthrown by force of arms…..the unelected gun-lobby?
The US is a Republic….

Nice to see Obama has Gun Control, as the first or second priority during his 2nd term in Office, I cannot for the life of me, see why they, NRA and Congress cannot sit down at a table, and iron things out.Seems like the NRA has more money to throw at Congress than common sense.
I would still like to know WHY the 2nd cannot be shuffled about, to everyones satisfaction.

The NRA sent representatives to the meeting with Biden a couple of weeks back but they said it was a complete waste of time as they didn’t want to hear anything the NRA had to say..

When I was going to school in Portsmouth in the 60’s & early 70’s just about every kid had a WWII surplus back pack & a gasmask bag they used for the school stuff. The store was called Ben Grubbs on Commercial Rd.

You asked for sources, I gave you the link to the biggest collection of stats in the US, with thousands of independent sources listed. What good is it if I look them up for you? You asked, I provided, it’s up to you to look but evidently you can’t be bothered.

Source, please.
And not the NRA or any other organisation with an agenda, whether pro or anti.
How about US Govt figures?
Also way back in the beginning of this thread was a link to GunFacts website which list ALL their sources, did you miss that or not understand the name of the site? 😉
