That dipshit in Atlanta DID go berserk with a hammer and killed at least three people, probably five. Your "fact" that people and families that own guns are 7 times more likely to be shot is a blatant lie. It would be considered an urban legend except for the fact that it is propagated to further a specific agenda, which is to disarm the private citizen in America. It is a fabrication of the anit-gun lobby. They use facts like "firearms are always present when people are shot, ergo people who own guns are always shot". It is a lie and I defy you to produce any verifiable sources to prove otherwise. Especially in light of the fact that studies by the U.S. Dept. of Justice, conducted in 1992, 1994, and 1998 directly contradict your claim by showing that gun ownership by private citizens has resulted in a lower death and injury rate amongst legal gun owners and members of their households due to any type of violence. These rates are lower than the national average and lower even than households where no firearms are present. The 1998 study also verified the fact that firearms were used in excess of 15,000 times in 1997 to protect law abiding gun owners from becoming victims of crime. Also in 1997, more criminals were killed by law abiding private citizens with firearms than were killed by law enforcement authorities. You will never hear the results of these official studies advertised by the Big Brother (and his ugly wife) administration in the White House, but that doesn't make them any less factual. I challenge you to produce legitimate proof of your "7 times more likely" claim. And don't quote Bill and Hillary. They are pathological liars who have made a career out of lying. They couldn't tell us the truth if their life depended on it. If they did, they never would have made it out of Arkansas.
