The Real Reason For Gun Control

[SnoopLoggyDog]

You're not racist, you're just happy to accept things as they are presented; and not delve further. But here's a simple question to make sure you're not a racist. Do you think that the genetics that lead one to have dark skin is the primary factor as to why those homicide rates are so high? If not, then what other factors can you think of that might come into play?

The issue is not skin color. It is many orders of magnitude more complex. It is challenging to understand the increased levels of violence within our society. I suspect the complexity is compounded by many third and forth order effects from government policies enacted 55 years ago. To begin to understand the issues from a new perspective, I want to read this book.

Gun control or rather weapon control has been around a long time, probably since civilization began when it was club control. It boils down to a cooperation between two groups, the people in charge and others that, for their own reasons, want to be taken care of by those in charge.

The people in charge see weapons in the hands of those they rule as a threat to their power and mortality. There are also people who don't want to deal with their own protection from a perceived hostility and cede their choice in this area to their rulers.

From the standpoint of controlling criminal activities gun control, while supported by these groups, has proven to be a failure.

I think at the end of it all gun control will always be with us as long as we have the two groups and as they have always been with us I don't see it ever changing.

They want to take our guns because they are planning to do something we would shoot them for.

Unfortunately I don't think it's contained to just the left. I think a large chunk of government always wants more power, and a large chunk of the population apparently want them to have it also. The pool of people fighting for our rights and a government held accountable appears to be dwindling at an alarming pace.

Those people, unfortunately, are the ones who cannot wrap their heads around the simple truism that any government powerful enough to give you everything you want is also powerful enough to take it all away

The ones that exist on INGO are in for a real eye opening in that respect, unfortunately the rest of us are along for the ride. I guess they never stop to ask questions like 'Did Venezuela end racism?'

Murder victims under 18 by race in 2019, white - 473, black - 610. In a nation of 330 MILLION. The impact on families is tragic but statistically it is a tiny amount. The RATES between the age groups is wide...but the actual NUMBERS are not.

They don't want you looking at real numbers, like the number of people killed by firearms, because then you see how few murders were actually committed with rifles and how many with hands and feet...

https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u....ges/tables/expanded-homicide-data-table-8.xls

Using age, the total number of people under the age of 18, (1,146 of 13,927), murdered with a firearm was 669, but 167 were beaten to death. The VAST majority was over 18, 9,950.

Uh, you should really adjust that to population size as a percentage.

Good read here.....
"The children that did the best," said Warren Farrell, were those who had "checks and balance parenting" — a combination of masculine and feminine traits working together.

I have pointed out for a long time that as a whole what is best for children is a home with a mom and a dad; not just a dad, not just a mom, not "two dads", not "two moms".

Who would have thunk it?

IS it a breakdown of the family? IS it access to opportunity? Is it laziness? Is it simply bad luck? You tell me.
