Democrats Say America Is The Worst Western Country For Mass Shootings. That's A Lie.

[BigWaylon]

Not sure I've seen this article posted, yet. Pretty decent read.

There’s a myth that has been propagated by Democrats after mass shootings: mass shootings are far more common in the United States than in other Western countries.

I'm having trouble verifying that list. For example, google search shows zero mass shootings in Switzerland since 2001 but Switzerland ranks 7th on a list which purports to show per capita stats from 2009-2015. Anyone able to confirm these stats because I would like to quote them with confidence.

Several of the bold words in the article are links...

Here are a couple:

I'm wrapping up one job and heading to the next, so I didn't dig through the linked articles...but maybe they provide the info you want?

That article is still misleading.

The whole reason for the Second Amendment in the first place is best summarized by one word:

Democide.

As in "the murder of any person or people by their government, including genocide, politicide and mass murder".

To the tune of AT LEAST 262 MILLION PEOPLE in the 20th century alone.

All that other stuff? BullshIt meant to cover up the stench of government sanctioned killings of their own citizens by the millions.

Screw everybody who doesn't understand this.

If you REALLY want to know how safe it is here in America, quantify all of this with the number of guns in each country. We are like the womb compared to other countries.

If you really want a fair comparison, you'd have to find a huge country with big borders that is multicultural and multi racial.

One that always comes to mind, almost the same size as US, is Brazil. It's massive and multi cultural. But they kill that conversation by saying "third world". Because it has lots of brown people.

When liberals talk about "first world" what they really mean is "Full of white people".

OK Switzerland had a mass shooting/workplace violence incident in 2013 but the leftist media are saying that nothing at all happened since 2001:

Because Canada has seen what Detroit and Chicago look like from right across the border.
