Motown Bombers

And yet it was a right winger boogaloo boi who admitted to shooting up the police station in Minneapolis that got burned down and not a BLM protestor. This is also ignoring the fact that BLM were protesting a legitimate cause and not fueled by a lie from the Republican party. Both sides are not equal in extremism.

Meet the new Democratic front runner for any statewide opening in Michigan.

I just read a take that because Japan has more deaths by Katana than the US that means gun control doesn't work.

A 4th of July parade was shut down in Lansing because liberals blocked the parade route. A 4th of July parade in Illinois was cut short because a right wing Trump supporter shot and killed 7 people. I'm objective because I blame both sides equally.

Both sides are not equal in this. Go find the campaign ad of Democrats with guns hunting their political opponents. Go find the examples of mass shooters who supported Democrats. You will find far more on the Republican side. Being objective doesn't mean you just assume both sides are equally culpable.

I challenge 1776 to find video of Maxine Waters on the house floor saying she will shoot her grandkids if necessary or a campaign ad of hers with her holding an assault weapon hunting her political opponent.

A Republican member of congress was just on the floor of the house saying she will shoot her grandkids if necessary. A Republican senate candidate just released a RINO hunting ad with him carry an assault rifle and military breaking into a house to shoot RINOs. The Highland Park shooter is a right wing extremist who supported Trump. The Buffalo shooter was motivated by great replacement theory championed by Tucker Carlson and Elise Stefanik. This is just in roughly the last 30 days. This doesn't even consider domestic terrorist groups are supported by Republicans but yeah Maxine Waters said something years ago. Get out of here with this both sides bullshit.

Reports are the shooter was former military. It would seem even former military couldn't even get a gun in Japan and had to make one.

Yeah, Japan doesn't have a history of violent expansion.

LOL don't both sides this. I mean, a former prime minister was just assassinated so apparently something in the political culture is going on there.

Japan had one gun homicide in all of 2021. A country of over 120 million. Yeah, I would say gun regulation does make a difference.

Like I said, in 1999 there were 36 and every other year was 7 or less between 1994 and 2004 with 6 years having no deaths.

That was also an over 20% decrease. 22% decrease on the current number would roughly be 40 deaths. There are always variables but one constant through the entire 40 years were assault weapons. There was a period of 10 years in which deaths by assault weapons were 20% less than than any other decade. In 1993 there were 14 deaths from assault weapons and in 94, 95, 96, and 97 there were zero. 1999 was an abnormally high year in which 36 were killed. You remove that statistical outlier of a year, and the number of deaths decline significantly. Other than that outlier year, the most in a given year was 7. Between 1983 and 1993, the 5 years in which more than 7 people were killed. In 13 years after the ban was lifted, there were 11 years in which more than 7 people were killed and 5 years in which more than 36 people were killed. I'm curious what other variables existed between 1983 and 1993 and went away from 1994 to 2004 only to return in 2005? In 2004 there were zero deaths. in 2005 there were 9, so the first year the ban went into effect there was an immediately decrease. The year after the ban was lifted there was an immediate increase. What variables suddenly changed in 1994 and 2004?

So what about prior to the ban? You're only focusing on the after. Deaths were elevated prior to the signing of the assault weapon ban, declined during the assault weapon ban, and increased immediately after the ban was lifted. What social media existed prior to 1993? Why was the Iraq war more impactful on assault weapon deaths than Vietnam or the Gulf War? What is it than specifically during that 10 year stretch from the mid 90's to mid 00's, which happens to be the exact same time the ban was in effect, that would explain the decrease and then subsequent rise if the ban just happened to be a correlation? Oh wait, I'm suppose to prove this for you.

The burden is most definitely on you. You're the one stating there is an error in the analysis and then tell me to prove your theories on social media and war aren't correlations.

I agree it was good, everything was perfect up until the Bernie Sanders part.

My only question is how is Hillary defeating Bernie Sanders by 3 million votes not allowing him to win? Seems like allowing the loser to win the election is how we got to the point of not having a functioning democracy.

Truth Social was created by George Soros.

I'm not surprised that teams don't want to completely sacrifice their team for Durant who will just want to leave in a year or two.

I thought we were talking about the Netherlands? When did it switch to Denmark?

So let me get this straight, she's a tyrant because she properly applied a law that had been on the books for 75 years. The law was ruled unconstitutional and not her actions, and now you're blaming her for not being a leader for not actually overstepping her authority?

It literally says in your first link the Supreme Court struck down the Emergency Powers of Governor Act of 1945. It did not say Whitmer overstepped her power like you stated. I understand that someone who has an axe to grind with Whitmer couldn't make that distinction.
