No rana... you claimed I was exaggerating on the distance between the shooting and the PP office. Then when proven wrong, you tried to blame the media instead of simply apologizing and stating you were wrong.

Gun deaths today in the U.S. are far lower than a couple of decades ago even though there are more guns on the street. Not sure if that's the reason or not but it is factual.
There is zero chance Desh could lay out an argument for what legislation she'd like to see and how she thinks it would lower killings even further.

No retard, you are the one that wants more to die. That is the only reason you haven't told us what law would stop these killings... YOU WANT MORE TO DIE.

Again... yet she called me out and stated I was exaggerating... then when I proved her wrong, she tried to blame the media. If you don't see how fucking stupid that is... then you are in the same boat as her. MY ENTIRE POINT IS THAT YOU, RANA AND SO MANY OTHER LIBERALS ARE SO QUICK TO BELIEVE WHATEVER THE MEDIA TELLS YOU. STOP IT. Learn to think for yourselves. Learn to wait for facts to actually come out. If they state something that is so very easy to fact check... CHECK IT OUT before you start telling others they are wrong.
For fucks sake you people are lemmings.
Reading what you quote from him, I am so happy I have him on ignore, his posts are trash and so is he.

We’ve had a massive decline in gun violence in the United States. Here’s why.

More police officers on the beat
Additional manpower helps police departments respond to and prevent violence. In 1994, President Bill Clinton signed a major crime bill that set aside enough federal funding for law enforcement agencies nationally to add 100,000 officers, though the ranks of the country's police forces had already been expanding as local governments dedicated more resources to their departments to control increasing rates of crime.

2. Police using computers
It wasn't just that police departments hired more people. They also started using computers to collect data on crime and to direct their officers' efforts more efficiently. When they have accurate, current information on where crime is happening, they can identify the neighborhoods where they are needed most.
As Zimring notes, police in New York were among the first to realize the potential for computers to aid in fighting crime. Departments nationwide are now using versions of New York's CompStat system, short for Comparative Statistics. A recent study by the Brennan Center for Justice suggests that similar systems across the country reduced homicide by about 11 percent.
3. Less booze
A gradual decline in the amount of alcohol that Americans drink is another explanation for the decline in violence. About four in 10 prisoners convicted of murder were using alcohol at the time of the offense, according to a federal report. Americans drank 21 percent less alcohol in 2000 than in 1980, though consumption has increased since then, data from the National Institutes of Health shows. The authors of the report from the Brennan Center believe that this decline can account for 5 percent to 10 percent of the overall decline in crime.
Total U.S. alcohol consumption per person declined sharply beginning three decades ago, but has recently increased. (National Institutes of Health)
4. Less lead
Besides alcohol, lead is another substance that has been shown to make humans more aggressive. Lead is toxic, and it can affect the behavior of children who are exposed to the metal while their brains are still developing. After the passage of the Clean Air Act in 1970, refiners were required to sell unleaded gasoline. Jessica Reyes, an economist at Amherst College, has argued that the children born after that law took effect breathed in less lead from car exhaust and that their brains were healthier as a result. She has estimated that the removal of lead reduced violent crime by no less than 56 percent. Other researchers are skeptical that lead could have caused such a large decline in U.S. violence, but many agree that the Clean Air Act had some effect on crime.

No retard... unlike you and the other idiots... I don't believe what the media tells me, nor do I trust corporations... unlike you... I learn as much as a I can from a variety of sources. Something as simple as location of a business in relation to another business even retards like you should be able to do.
But like the Martin case, like the Brown case, like this situation... you idiots simply parrot what the media spoon feeds you... and then when proven wrong, you run around acting like a bunch of morons.
