Gun Violence Archive recently absorbed the propaganda website Mass Shooting Tracker at the start of 2016. I began to look through some of their data to see how they compared to Mass Shooting Tracker. At first glance, it appeared they fixed a few of the notorious discrepancies that I have previously highlighted in the definition … Read more Gun Violence Archive; Killers (of Any Critiques on Their Methodology)

Here is my proposition on gun control: We do it like a game show. We begin with everyone having a say. If you interchange non-synonymous terms in an argument, you get eliminated. Make up statistical data, you get eliminated. Misrepresent statistical data, you get eliminated. Use any of numerous Logical fallacies, you get eliminated. Argue … Read more My Proposition for Reconstructing the Gun Laws

Herein Lies One of the Problems in the Gun Control Debate

by

Look, I’m extremely pro Second Amendment…Extremely… pro Second Amendment. I am, however, pro Second Amendment based upon logical fact and critical thinking and not because I just “want” to be able to own firearms under any circumstances.

An Estrich With Its Head Buried In The Sand?

by

I can’t help but take note with this article “Guns, God and Background Checks” by Susan Estrich. It seems like someone who just wants to talk about gun control because it is a hot topic, and not because they have anything tangible or knowledgeable to add to the debate.

Mark Kelly….Lost in Space

by

It is scary that a former Navy Captain and American astronaut can be so f’n ignorant: 1) 5.56 NATO (.223) was adopted to be LESS lethal than the prior .30-06 of an M1 Garand. 2) Tactically, 5.56 NATO being LESS lethal requires the enemy to expend resources evacuating the wounded during battle. Being a much … Read more Mark Kelly….Lost in Space

It Appears Diane Feinstein Can’t Understand Normal Thinking

by

  Diane Feinstein doesn’t appear to understand the lack of logic in virtually everything she says. If she does though, then she certainly understands manipulating people’s perceptions with misdirection and irrelevant statements through an intentional use of fallacious logic. Looking at statistical evidence, I would have to conclude she is either ignorant or manipulative, it … Read more It Appears Diane Feinstein Can’t Understand Normal Thinking

Obama, Illinois and Handguns

by

If Obama is so worried about Illinois and guns, why doesn’t he point out that in 2011 only 0.2% of all Illinois murders (452) involved a rifle of any kind when he’s pushing for a new ‘assault weapons’ ban? (the total number for the year being 1) Only 2.6% of all U.S. murders in 2011 … Read more Obama, Illinois and Handguns

Obama Says Gabby Gifford Deserves a Vote

by

From Obama; “Gabby Giffords deserves a vote. The families of Newtown deserve a vote. The families of Aurora deserve a vote…They deserve a vote.” That’s like 150 votes and they already have the right to cast that vote. In fact, the Giffords even created a Super PAC to lobby for gun control…that’s more than just … Read more Obama Says Gabby Gifford Deserves a Vote
