http://www.salon.com/2021/03/27/americas-gun-madness-how-guns-went-from-tools-to-ideology-to-identity/

A gun is used up to 2 million times a year in America to protect armed Americans from being harmed.
Only 2% of those involved a gun's being fired.


Source, please.   And how was data obtained that the gun prevented harm?   What type of harm,  to person or property?   

How many were shot by someone who feared harm in a situation where there was no real threat?   

Unsourced factoids without CONTEXT are meaningless.

Also:

How would background checks,  required user training,  and elimination of assault weapons ownership by civilians...how would that be detrimental to the use of a gun for protection?   Wouldn't those measures increase protection...from crazies and untrained fools with guns?   I could still own my rifle,  because I know how to store and operate a gun,  and because it's not an assault style weapon.   Did you actually read the article - the author describes how the NRA used to SUPPORT that kind of sensible gun ownership and training.   That's the point.

It's all become about give em an inch and they will ask for a yard.

I believe that’s from John Lott’s gun research. While much of Lott’s study was called into question, Mary Rosh accepted it all.

LoL,  yes,  his famous alter ego and #1 fan!

Lott is notorious for just making stuff up and suppressing data from DOJ that doesn't fit his narrative.   In science,  we have several terms for that,  and most of them NSFW.

Kid, reasonable gun control legislation has pretty much stayed at the inch.   The yard has never remotely been in danger of being taken.

That has yet to change. It’s early days now the US has a foreign policy and non-treasonous political appointees again.

Ted Cruz is despicable, instead of going to the Southern Border to help the immigrants, to ease the suffering, and to help to grease the wheels and fix immigration laws in order to make our immigrants legal like Reagan did, and to help to get our economy running so that we can create jobs for the immigrants, etc, Ted went to the border just to point fingers and blame the democrats and to try to make the democrats look bad. Ted made it a total partisan issue, instead of having love in his heart for the people and standing up for the American ideals as a nation of immigrants. 

When the love of people rises above the love of power, then we can have a better world.

Ted Cruz does not seem to give a damn about the poor people on the border. 

And some sick people want to label the immigrants "illegal" and use that term to take away their humanity and equality. The immigrants are human, and we are all equal. And the new immigrants have the same right to be here as any of us, and people fought and died so that the new immigrants would have a nation to come to. 

We need to welcome our new immigrants, and we need to put them to work. 

And it should not matter if you are republican or democrat when it comes to American ideals, and our need to help people who are suffering. 

Salute,

Tony V.

Yes, there are good immigrants and bad immigrants...only the good ones should be allowed in.

Two suspected suicide bombers blew themselves up outside a Catholic church in Indonesia yesterday, the first day of Easter Holy Week.
Gotta keep that type of people out of the Christian West.

Trump is needed to keep the peace.
"Little Rocket Man" stopped firing missiles after Trump told him he would cease to exist if he blew up Guam or one of America's allies.

30% of Americans polled feel Joe Biden is uniting the country

Just 1 in 25 think the situation at the Mexico-US border isnt a problem

Have to wonder what that number would have been 6 months ago

Tell that to the folks of the Shinnecock Nation...

You mean the Christians who bomb abortion clinics and shoot up churches, mosques and synagogues?

And? Rocket Man is puffing his cheeks and stamping his feet and so?

Same consequences remain as they have since 5hey made their first nuke.
