I think the stat is the highest rate of mass shooting death by population.

Norway's population is small and one guy was a pretty good shot with a Mini-14 in a soft, target-rich environment.

Why does Norway have the highest rate of people murdered in mass shootings? Not trying to bash you. Just wondering.

You want to talk about Nordic countries with issues its Sweden. I think they had the highest rate of grenade attacks on earth last year.

That and gangs are routinely picking up old Soviet AK's with big mags. Because gun control works soooooo well.

The words in quotations were a Facebook post from the police chief of Houston.

The problem is, the Police Chief of Houston makes no argument. Stomping around, pissed off, doesn't compel anyone to change their mind.

Honestly, if I was a citizen of Houston, I'd be very concerned about extrajudicial measures the Police Chief may take, to deny my rights.

Case by case basis. It still shows that the US is overall safer than people think. Especially when you take gang mass shootings off the list.

Same goes for violence overall when you exclude key cities like DC, Chicago, etc. Ie, mostly areas with a lot of gun control.

So was Athens, Tennessee.

Toinena,

Just because we disagree with you in the BDF doesn't mean we don't like you.


And to be honest, the BDF is just where guys full of testosterone go to work off stress when they're too lazy to get to the gym.
Don't take it too seriously.

I love Toinena. Did someone say they didn't love her, I'll go punch them in the nose.

And I do leave my gun holstered when I punch a jerk. Not an issue.

Yeah, Ben Shapiro pulled out some stats. If you remove Los Angeles county, Cook county, Detroit, Baltimore, and the District, our murder rate and actual number of murders would be lower than Australia..... by a mile.

I'm not gonna be debating God and his role in the evil of this world or whatever. What I am going to say is something that needs to be said.


We've had yet another school shooting yesterday morning in Texas. We've had yet another wicked, truly evil person walk in freely and murder eight students. If that does not outrage you, you are not human and have no pulse.


The last thing we need to offer are just "thoughts and prayers." Thoughts and prayers are not enough anymore. God hates gun violence. Period. And so should we.


How many school shootings is it going to take for the church to wake up to the fact that there are truly evil people in this world? That Satan has made it clear he is not going to play fair? Does it have to go so far as to seeing their own children murdered? I'm all for the second amendment, but is it worth defending at the cost of these kids lives?


Bottomline, this is all outrageous and disgusting. All of us, liberals, conservatives, Christians, Atheists, whatever! We all need to start sending demands our police and politicians and gun manufacturers, "DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS!"

"History will not look kindly upon those elected officials who failed to act in the face of repeated mass murders of our children. Spare us your thoughts and prayers and do your job." - Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings
Christians are already aware of the evil in the world, which is one reason they were converted, because they themselves are evil and wicked in their hearts.

Take away guns, and others who are evil and wicked in their hearts will find other methods to murder others. It's not the guns, it is the result of fallen man.

And by the way, prayer is still valid, powerful, necessary and efficacious. Others can mock it, mitigate it and ridicule it but the fact remains that these types of murders will continue because our nation is in defiance of God and his ways.

We will pray for the families of the victims, national revival, a turning to God. The ultimate needful thing is for many to repent and believe the Gospel, our nation is in dire need of God and his mercy.

Make sure the safety is on too or a cap might get fired by mistake.
