You would think if guns cause crime that record gun sales would cause record crime...

quote:

The FBI released Crime in the United States, 2013 today, which shows that the estimated number of violent crimes in 2013 decreased 4.4 percent when compared with 2012 figures, and the estimated number of property crimes decreased 4.1 percent. There were an estimated 1,163,146 violent crimes reported to law enforcement last year, along with an estimated 8,632,512 property crimes.

The crime statistics report, issued by the Bureau’s Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program, contains voluntarily submitted data from 18,415 city, county, state, tribal, campus, and federal law enforcement agencies on specific crimes brought to their attention. They include the violent crimes of murder, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault, and the property crimes of burglary, larceny-theft, motor vehicle theft, and arson.

If the government started a program to give every employed tax paying citizen a gun for their home, those stats would drop another 50%.

Up to date on taxes
working
no felonies

Mandatory IN DEPTH gun safety training

PROFIT...way less crimes and way less need for high police budgets.

Gun homicides have been going down since the Brady Bill was passed. Go figure.

Guns aren't the primary issue. Keeping them in the hands of responsible gun owners' hands is.

I think Obama's presidency has been incredible for gun and ammo sales.

they have guns in the mid-east and there is lots of war there so obviously guns cause war..


I know... but to them it would make sense.
