Apparently statistically per 100,000 people, on average 88 are murdered in Washington DC per year. Not bad you may argue and they probably had it coming anyways.

er maybe so but that's a worse stat than Iraq or about the same as Afghanistan.

Man is a mean murderous beast and that's the truth, wherever he lives.

A shooting in Muscatine, Iowa, overnight leaves one man wounded (link); a teenager in San Jose was wounded in a shooting (link); an 18-year-old in Baton Rouge was shot and killed (link); a man was shot repeatedly in downtown Lexington (link); two people shot in Wilmington (link); teasing may have led to the shooting of an 18-year-old in Houston (link); a man in Chicago shot and killed his wife and then turned the gun on himself while their three kids hid in a nearby bedroom (link); a 12-year-old in Texas was shot in the chest by his brother (link); one dead and two wounded in a shooting in Cleveland (link); and an Arkansas National Guardsman was arrested for threatening to shoot high-school kids (link).

Just scratching the surface of America's gun violence for the past couple of days.

While we have more efficent ways of slaughtering each other here in America, but gun control or not, people will find a way to get it done.
