So I’m watching the news and I hear Democrat Chris Murphy lauding stats from you guessed it, the “Every Town for Gun Safety” bunch, who are claiming a shooting a week occurs in schools across the country. Really? Well, not so much it turns out…

The commentators do a pretty good job extracting the real numbers. But the fact is the gun control debate is one where you’re gonna have to do your homework if you wanna participate. Because when an anti-gun zealot like Murphy gets up on the floor of Congress and claims 52 school shootings a year without context, and when the actual number is more like 10, (with even that number in doubt as it doesn’t match federal statistics largely because of fuzzy facts having to do with the actual events themselves), there is serious cause for “Bill of Rights” alarm. Agencies like ETGS are notorious for padding their stats using shooting competitions, suicides, and even shootings in surrounding communities (near schools) if they can’t make the numbers work. They’ve also at times created a whole new age group for “child” gun violence to include 16-21 year gangland shooters. Sorry people, but those “little tots” aren’t children.

Nevertheless, make it easy on yourselves and do two things:

1. Know and understand the Second Amendment is a right and not a privilege, and
2. Stick with reliable and verifiable sources, even government stats from say, the FBI, CDC, BATFE, etc., etc… At least you’ll have real facts on hand to help you form an opinion, and not the politically slanted babble of guys like Murphy and his “Every Town for Gun Safety” crowd.

Don’t be fooled by these pandering charlatans masquerading as all-knowing and all caring my friends. They are simply enemies of the Constitution who mean to strip you of your rights in classic Obama fashion, by lying to you…
