Why Is Vox Doing Violence To Gun Statistics?

[Jimmybacon43]

Not one more death! Those 34 firearms deaths are unacceptable! Stripping millions of their firearms rights is a small price to pay for the lives of our children!!!

[blockfort]

Stripping millions of their firearms would probably mean at least 34 MORE crimes committed against unarmed citizens. Like me, in CA, when I'm not at home

...but if it saves just one life...for the children...with the shoulder thing that goes up... they want to keep the law-abiding in chains like they always wanted...slaves.

Cars... 30,000+
Pools... 2013: 390 pool or spa-related drownings for children younger than 15 with 76 percent (296) of the victims being younger than 5;
5,100 pool or spa-related emergency department-treated submersion injuries for children younger than 15 with 78 percent (4,000) of the injured being younger than 5.
(in California you have to gate your pool with something that can't be climbed over, AND with locking gates? ZERO personal responsibility there, for illegal swimmers...)
Personal weapons (hands, fists, feet, etc.): 678

TOTAL 2013 including evil Semi-auto rifles, hunting rifles, AND rifles with a revolving cylinder: 322
The problem is that they can't outright ban handguns, but they are doing a good job trying.

Handguns: 6,371

Democrats that write gun-laws:

Oh, here are the newer 2013 numbers recrunched:


I only included data I was concerned with, but I posted the entire FBI numbers link in my prior post...

THAT is really funny.
