Why, all of them.



With y'all Old Stock Canadians, ain't much difference.
It's those dribbles of Indian blood that some of us accumulated two hundred years ago.

How many American mass shootings are planned and carried out by the state?

Reasonably easy civilian possession of arms is the canary in the mine......when they start taking guns from people, the rest of your liberty is not far behind.

Hmmmmmmm; looks like a single barrel shotgun. But I've been wrong before. For all you non gun folks, that would be
" not a rifle"..........whatever

An interesting article I read about the prevalence of mass shootings in the United States.

With data for 171 countries, Lankford found that the United States had by far the most public mass shooters, with 90 during the 46-year period. That’s five times as many as the next country on the list—the Philippines, with 18. Rounding out the top five were Russia (15), Yemen (11) and France (10). In other words, although the U.S. accounts for less than five percent of the world’s population, it had 31 percent of mass shootings between 1966 and 2012.

Actually, I think it should be categorized as a problem of about 0.0000000000001% of Americans, the other 99+% are by and large decent citizens.

Maybe, we need to scoop up all of the sociopath psychos who own guns "just for the fun of it" and put them in camps up in the high Arctic.
What did the Arctic wildlife ever do to you to make you hate them THAT much?
