The True Cost of Gun Violence in America

[WWV10MHZ]

NONE of these costs are the result of ANY actions done by the LAW-ABIDING Gun Owning Citizens of America!!!!!

The costs due to gun violence in America are TOTALLY due to CRIMINALS using guns UNLAWFULLY!!!

The LAW-ABIDING Gun Owners of America should NOT be PUNISHED by the actions of CRIMINALS!!!!

exactly...if laws were created making life in prison, for anyone using a gun in the commission of a crime...and the death penalty for killing someone with a gun while committing a crime...I guarantee hawk's buddies would think twice before picking up heat!

[D2D]

Any study on the cost of gun violence in America is a fraud if it includes justifiable homicide and suicide!

1965hawks' study is a fraud!

[jst-the-fax]

D2D,
Tell me it ain't so...hawk a fraud?

[D2D]

Yeah, I do so hate stating the obvious!

But, sadly, it needs to be said!

DaBoz: Self bragging is no bragging,, piss off you fking nobody. You top post your own thread just to call someone names. God what a LOW LIFE.

Who's bragging, DaBoz? Explain why you believe debunking the bogus arguments and absurd claims made by you and your misinformed, gun-nut pals is bragging. And, I especially want you to explain how my debunking your asininr arguments make me a "low life." What stupidity and ignorance you have, DaBoz! And apparently you have a king-size inferiority complex too. Tell you what you can do, DaBoz: Shut the fuck up and piss off, you ass clown!

D2D: Yeah, I do so hate stating the obvious!

D2D,

It's obvious why you hate stating the obvious: You would've had been to admit you are a moron a long time ago.


D2D: Any study on the cost of gun violence in America is a fraud if it includes justifiable homicide and suicide! 1965hawks' study is a fraud! [sic]

No, D2D. I'm not a fraud.  Truth is, as is always the case, you don't know what you're talking about.

Gun violence is violence committed with the use of a gun (firearm or small arm). It may, or may not be considered criminal. Criminal gun violence includes homicide (when and where ruled justifiable), assault with a deadly weapon, and suicide, or attempted suicide, depending on jurisdiction. Non-criminal gun violence may include accidental or unlimited injury or death.

D2D, explain why you believe any study on the cost of gun violence in America is a fraud if it includes justifiable homicide and suicide.

WWV10MHZ: NONE of these costs are the result of ANY actions done by the LAW-ABIDING Gun Owning Citizens of America!!!!!

WWV10MHZ,

Where did you get the absurd notion that a so-called law-abiding gun-owning citizen in America" is incapable of using a gun to commit violence?

The costs due to gun violence in America are TOTALLY due to CRIMINALS using guns UNLAWFULLY!!!

Really? Is an accidental shooting that causes death or injury a criminal act? Generally speaking, is it a crime to use a firearm to commit a successful suicide?

The LAW-ABIDING Gun Owners of America should NOT be PUNISHED by the actions of CRIMINALS!!!!

You're playing the victim card (and arguing a red herring), WWV10MHZ. At issue here is the high cost of gun violence in America, not the punishment of so-called law-abiding gun owners in America, or the criminal use of firearms. And your pointless--and silly--penchant for tacking on long strings of exclamation points at the end of your sentences won't change that fact.

[sine-qua-non]

Not all violence Is bad.  So the cost shared for that is acceptable.

 Did you think it wasn't?

[D2D]

1965hawks, the study is a fraud!

You know it!

I know it!

Anyone capable of thinking knows it!

1965hawks, the study is a fraud! [sic]

D2D,

When you present evidence to support that claim I will believe you. But until then, you're just talking out your ass, just like you always do in this forum.

You know it!

I know no such thing, D2D. What I do know for certain, however, is that you're an imbecile.

I know it!

Well,you do know it by now.  After all, I remind you of your imbecility every time you post your rigmarole on this message board.

Anyone capable of thinking knows it!

Since you prove every day that you are incapable of thinking, you have no business at all trying to make an argument based on the premiss of someone's ability to think.

sine-qua-non: Not all violence Is bad.

Whether violence is good or bad isn't the issue here. At issue here is the high cost of gun violence in the United States.

[1965hawks]

jst-the-fax: So where does the majority of "gun violence" in this Country occur and who commits it?

jst-the-fax,

Your question is an irrelevant distraction away from the original issue--a red herring. The topic of this thread is the high cost of gun cost in this country, not where the majority of gun violence occurs in this country, or who commits it.

[D2D]

Any study that says justifiable homicide is a cost is a fraud!

Justifiable homicide is a benefit not a cost!
