The media is silent because the statistic is very deceptive. Hammers and blunt gadgets do no longer kill extra human beings than guns. no longer even more effective than rifles, because the Breitbart document neglected the massive type "Firearms, style no longer stated." Is it probably that more effective than 70 of the a million,834 homicides the position there replaced into no style stated were rifles? if so, the tale collapses. also the numbers on handguns are way larger than any of the different diverse varieties -- in truth in basic terms about 50% of all homicides were dedicated by technique of handguns. For 2009: Rifles: 348 Handguns: 6,452 Shotguns: 418 different guns: ninety 4 Firearms, style no longer stated: a million,834 Blunt gadgets (golf equipment, hammers, etc.): 611 it really is safer to really look on the coaching before going off on a rant. added: 4.8% of gun homicide deaths the position a weapon replaced into stated were with the aid of rifles. If that % is utilized to the fashion no longer stated make certain, 88 extra homicides will be added to the rifle entire, making rifles utilized in extra homicides than blunt gadgets.

How disgusting it is for you to bring up this shooting and the Second Amendment in the same sentence. Stop politicizing tragedy. I haven't heard any liberals talk today about banning guns. I've heard cons complain that they think we're GOING to... but it hasn't happened today. I wonder which side of the aisle is less selfish?

Rule #1 in the socialists playbook, confiscate all weapons so they cannot defend themselves from us.
As consistent as the sun coming up each morning and warming the globe.

I have no problem with the 2nd ammendment per se.
But can you seriously tell me there shouldn't be some kind of protections in place to keep semi-automatic weapons out of the hands of these wackos?!?!?!?
When's the last time you needed one to hunt?

You people are paranoid beyond belief.
I am a liberal, and I'm in favor of letting people hunt. However, why does anybody other than law enforcement need a gun in a non-hunting situation?
I'm also a VA Tech alum, and I'm upset about what happened, so just don't go there.

Why are uncaring people trying to further their own agendas and beliefs by using the deaths of fellow Americans, and asking this same type of question over and over?

It's because of wackos that commit crimes like these, that I feel safe with my guns to protect my family.
