I agree!! Totally ridiculous.....embarassing

Sounds like you need to move!

America is Failing on alot of fronts......

Every year just over 30,000 people die in the US from gunshot wounds. Every two years more US citizens are killed by gunshot wounds than were lost in the entire Vietnam war.

Lets look at this another way. With a population of 310 million and an annual death rate of 8.3/1000 , we can calculate that 2,573,000 people die in the US each year.
Of which 30,000 die of Gun Shot - so if you live in the US you have a 1.166% chance that you will die of Gun Shot wound. The rate of gunshot deaths is about 8 times that of economically comparable nations.

Approximately 8,000 homicides annually occur with gunshot wounds. About 16,000 commit suicide with handguns. Nearly 1,000 die in gun related accidents each year. The number of persons shot by police is slightly elusive.

interesting data --------- http://www.justfacts.com/guncontrol.asp

Dig a little deeper and get into the demographics of the gunshot murder and deaths.

I wonder who's pulling the trigger?

The Truth is Ugly and to many Politicaly Correct people refuse to reconize the root or the problem.

Anyone here can scream foul and racism Ect. But the figures do not lie as to where the vast majority of the problem is at.

I venture a guess that it isn't color. It has more to do with education and upbringing. I know several people of different ethnicities, and their children are being brought up to value education and careers instead of a gangster culture, and are on their way to lead good lives. Funny but they all attend church on a regular basis and believe in The One True God. We have a growing number of diverse cultures in our 5,500 person community, and we don't have any issues. There is a lack of jobs/income in larger cities, and with that comes a "no way out" attitude, and crime/murder rates go up. Detroit has a very large black community, and as such the demographics bely a problem with a certain color/culture.

So..... Whats the Soultion? More Welfare?

Nick must be searchin' for a padlock, he'll find one soon............

dfree383 wrote:So..... Whats the Soultion? More Welfare?

Welfare is the problem. If you give someone something, they always want more free money. They never learn to earn it on their own. I have no problem with giving someone a hand up, but blatant hand outs are always abused. Too many deadbeats learned how to milk the system and made it into the farce that it is now. BTW I'd vote for Freeloader for prez.

I'd vote for him, but I'd have to get registered first...............

this is why I live on the west side my MI bro!! Geez, my dad worked in corrections for 26yrs, he told me when the economy took a crap that crime was gonna go up, looks like he was right.
