Has anyone ever noticed that there's statistic on gun violence and I don't see any statistics on other violent crimes?
I see alot of social engineering on this subject.

It's normal for bad governments throughout history to try to remove weapons from citizens instead of increasing education and reducing the number of criminals. Usually as a way of controlling people and protecting themselves.(Themselves meaning their seat of power in the government.) Look at Rome and the Goths for an example.Perfer et obdura; dolor hic tibi proderit olim.

In ancient times, the Philistines kept the Hebrews subjugated by forbidding them weapons...yeah, it's in the bible...."I Have Sworn Upon the Altar of God eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man." -Thomas Jefferson

The 2nd amendment is a direct result of this in England. The "peasants", in some cases, couldn't even have pitchforks because it could be used as a weapon.
Suspect when the Founders said, "keep and bear arms", things like pitchforks were included in that thought process."If Howdy Doody runs against him, I'm voting for the puppet." - SkyOwl's Wife, 2012Comment
