Omitting data to make your point only undermines it further.
The CDC reported 42,348 firearm deaths last year. Suicides accounted for 28,000 of them.
That leaves 14,383 homicides by firearm out of 341.8 million; That’s 4.2 deaths per 100,000.
Know what else has a death rate greater than 4.2/100k?
Almost everything.
Heart disease 155, cancer 140, accidents 55, stroke 40, respiratory disease 34,kidney/liver disease 13.
To claim that ‘America has a firearm problem’ based off of a single metric which includes self harm is incredibly misleading- and to call for the removal of a constitutional right based of a lie by omission even worse.
The Naturalization Act of 1795 added a requirement that applicants for citizenship declare an intention to renounce foreign allegiance and, at naturalization, “absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty.”
DON’T CALIFORNIA YOUR TEXAS!
Sure, I have some disagreements with Republicans, but they are WAY better than the alternative. Talarico will TURN Texas INTO California. If you want California just move there! PLEASE don’t vote to RUIN Texas.
VOTE for @KenPaxtonTX YOU CAN DO IT!🇺🇸
🚨BREAKING: Famous fitness instructor, Jillian Michaels, is facing HEAVY BACKLASH for saying: "The reality is that when you give gay people a month and veterans a day, I think you have wildly lost sight of your values and your priorities."
Thoughts?
I am tired of hearing that Ken Paxton is not a great candidate or not a good candidate.
That’s ridiculous!
He might not be the greatest personality but he is an excellent candidate! He stands up for conservative values in a bold way like few others we’ve seen!
Vote Ken Paxton
🚨 California just got 48 hours to prove it isn't counting noncitizen ballots.
Trump's DOJ handed them a list of suspected noncitizens and told them to freeze those ballots and verify citizenship.
Adam Schiff calls that election interference.
I call it doing the job California refuses to do.
Clean the rolls!
I think that MAGA Americans stopped caring what you think in 1776. I would worry about your own country. You’re allowing Muslims to take over.
You should take a seat.
Lauren, repeating a lie doesn’t make it true, no matter how loudly you say it. I’m damn proud of where I stand: two genders, secure borders, honest elections, and voter ID. And some white liberal throwing a tantrum isn’t going to tell me what to think. An insult isn’t an argument.

Former FBI, Director James Comey and I are both charged with the same crime; lying to Congress .He is allowed to turn himself in 10 days after being charged in private .My home is raided by 29 FBI agents at 6 AM to arrest me. CNN is there to film it LIVE
Ilhan Omar's home is raided at 6 AM. CNN does nothing but complain about it as a threat to democracy.
Two tiered Justice?
