The U.S has over 300,000,000 guns, Canada has 7,000,000

Who here knows which country has the higher VIOLENT crime rate?

Rember, Canada has much fewer people than The U.S

I'm getting hungry for lambchops. :(



Canada.

Now do you know why?

The U.S has about as many people as it has guns,
About Three hundred million.

Canada has about twenty four and a half million people and seven million guns, And almost twice the crime rate as the U.S

Despite a tendency to simply compare Canada’s violent crime rate with the FBI’s violent crime index, this type of
comparison is inappropriate. First and foremost, Canada’s violent crime rate contains a greater number of violent

offences, including homicide, attempted murder, assault (3 levels), sexual assault (3 levels), robbery, other sexual
offences, and abductions. The FBI only includes four main offences in the violent crime index – homicide, forcible
rape, robbery, and aggravated assault. The FBI’s exclusion of simple assault, which is the leading contributor to
Canada’s violent crime rate, makes this comparison impossible.
Therefore, a new “total selected violent crimes” category must to created, which includes the total comparable
violent crimes: homicide, robbery and aggravated assault. As described earlier, the Canadian aggravated assault
category would include assault levels 2 and 3 and attempted murder.

Read the whole thing. It's very interesting. Now, if you can find a comparison that takes into account the fact that Canada has more types of crimes that fall into the category of "violent crime" than the U.S. does, and Canada still comes out with a higher crime rate, then we can talk. I haven't been able to find any such thing.

You all can't stand it can you? A pro-gun democrat stuns you.

Obama doesn't want to take your guns.

The NRA does want to take your money.

If you gun totin' right wingers ever wake up and hold the republican party responsible for it's lies lemme know please.

Meanwhile, I will own guns secure in the my constitutional right to do so and worry about real issues.

I'm far too passionate about this country and patriotism there to to remain a mere spectator to it's eventual, seemingly evolutionary destruction from within. I am a registered republican that has slipped from the monster's grasp. Greed has replaced democracy and honor, leaving the names of their respective parties, republican and democratic, nothing more than playpens full of spoiled, bickering infants. I consider myself a conservative independant.

I pray each and every day, each and every time I witness another liberal rip rights from the backs of the silent majority, only to award them to the pockets of the ever growing "squeaky wheels" of this nation.

This is still a free country. BUT, to every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Mr Cooper has the right to endorse or reject either of the nominees, but should his employer suffer the consequences from it?

PLEASE research Senator Obama's stand on the second amendment. A peek at the NRA website may enlighten you as well.

If guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns.

If I've misspelled a word, is it the fault of my keyboard?

Thank you for reading and keeping an open mind.

GOD BLESS AMERICA!
