BigGunnerSteve Report post Posted May 8, 2013 I heard a shot blerp in the new about this last night and in the end they had to get in "...still, more than 70% of the murders are still commied by guns". Wow, I thought that only people commite murders and not items. The item is just the tool that was used. Why are we not going after and trying to ban the other 30% of the tools that were used? Oh ya, the other tools are not politically motivated feel good propoganda for the left. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
