129

[MirahM]

On our news it stated that the USA has had 129 gun attacks this year, and its only March.  I know your going to get upset, but it bears discussion.  If those attacks were carried out by terrorists the USA would be on high alert, like after the twin towers.

What got me is how cool that m fkr was walking into the school. 

Something has to be done.   Biden has said so, but  like healthcare he will do nowt.  And hes in charge.   It seems to me you have a president, but has no power, he should be able to pass gun laws.

This article says that guns were the #1 leading cause of death of chidren under the age of 19 in 2020. This doesn't include deaths of infants for infant specific death issues.

3219 firearm deaths in 2020 of those under the age of 19
2,882 vehicular deaths.

So I think the logical thing is to ban the sale of all motorized vehicles. Kidding.

Gun violence claimed more lives in 2020 (over 45,000) than it had any other year on record.

That is a relief, I hoped Covid hadn't taken ALL of those lives!

PolitiFact is owned by the Poynter Institute. One of the Poynter Institute's largest donors is mega-billionaire Charles Koch, whose father helped found the John Birch Society.

Just sayin'.

Do you discount the findings in the article?

I misquoted what the purpose of the article was-the author was fact checking Chuck Schumer.

I didn't realize it was from politifact. The heading said "Austin American Statesman" I ignored the rest.
