"Your chance of dying by violence has been dropping for centuries. And that trend has not stopped. Or even slowed much." Then what's the fuss?

The odds of you being shot while carrying a concealed weapon is 4 to 5 times than if you don't carry. You lie.

CJ has no idea he's undercutting his we need gun control argument by saying "Violent crime is very low in this country." If that's so we must be doing something right. He's calling his fellow liberals liars when they say America is very violent because of our civilian gun ownership. lower if you factor out certain areas. Which usually aren't very interesting We all know what areas he't talking about and this shows, like most liberals, he doesn't really care about the folks in those areas. So because you are a trembling bed wetter, cowering from your imaginary fears, everyone else runs a higher risk of being killed than they might otherwise. That is a significant social cost so that people like you can feel like a man. .... being a winger, probably see no problem with putting others at risk He's pretending conservative gun owners are the folks running around killing people, which he knows is untrue. And what's with the "trembling bed wetter" stuff? Sounds like your typical run away from declining California liberal.
