"Between 1993 and 2011, NONFATAL GUN CRIMES PLUMMETED 69%; from 1.5 million to 467,300. GUN-RELATED MURDERS DROPPED 40%; from 18,253 to 11,101. GUN RELATED MURDERS FOR BLACK AMERICANS DROPPED by 51%.

The report also shows that the media-created hysteria over school shootings is wildly misleading. Between '93 and '11, the murder rate in schools dropped by almost a third; from 29 to 20."

I've posted numbers showing this on several occasions. The people that have bought into this hysteria simply do not care what the facts are. They are too stubborn to admit they're wrong and hold on to the simplistic theory that less guns equates to less violence.

Kids not getting shot just doesnt make the news - 24 hour news shows got their start during the late 80's really. It is no small wonder we think gun crimes are worse today.

The feds are null in my book. If we don't line up to what their perverted idea of what America should be then they start with the authoritarian BS. Eff 'em all, let 'em find another victim to fund their retirements.
