Lets be *really* clear

As usual, @bradybuzz demonstrates that they are more interested in propaganda than facts.

Consider the following

- Fewer than 80 people fell victim to an "Assault Weapon" homicide in 2018

- Knives: 1515
- Fists: 672
- Blunt Objects: 443
That makes Knives roughly 19x more deadly, Hands and Fists 8.3x more deadly, and Bats & Hammers 5.5x more deadly than so called "Assault Weapons" and "Weapons of War"

This "155% more people killed" claim doesn't hold water when compared to total numbers associated with homicide.
Out of the 14,123 homicides that year (1k less than before, a near 8% drop)

Knives accounted for 10.7% of all homicides

Hands and fists accounted for 4.7%

Blunt Objects, 3.1%

Assault Weapons? .5%

Beyond negligble, regardless of how high profile theae tyrants make them
These numbers force readers to take a step back and re-evaluate the bigger picture and intentions here.

Its not about saving lives - its about banning guns that can make a difference if these tyrants ever get into power and find themselves at the barrels end of a Revolution.
Everything they tell you is lies. Never forget that.

These are numbers that can be observed on the FBI's Expanded Table 8 website, with exact details on reported cases involving method of homicide

These are NOT variable numbers. They are exact. Not padded.
