it's been a few years so I can't find my source, but there was a study that showed mass shootings weren't on a rise, the reporting of them was. The internet has made the story accessible worldwide almost immediately.
That if we used the same tactic and reported every traffic death in the country as soon as they happened, shootings would pale by comparison.

Those who can think logically understand this. Even without the source, on average for over the past decade, rifle murders are less than 400 a year.  This is for all rifles, including bolt action.  Handguns are about 6K a year. Shot guns less than 200. Hammers are about 6K a year and golf clubs are about 140 a year.  Those who cannot see what the left is trying to do. First ban rifles. Then later use the excuse and move the goal post "it makes sense to ban handguns when people are murdered at a rate of 6K a year".  I know a few fudds with regard to AR bans "it doesn't affect me".

noooo. . . that doesn't happen. . . evar. . .

Like how Gov/Dr Green this morning.  Speaking for "Keiki Day", or something like that.  Using that opportunity to push his agenda on banning guns. . .
