Oh, and that's just news related to the orange one. How many shootings occurred there over the weekend? Last year Florida accounted for about 1/10 of all mass shootings in the US. The state has less than 7% of the US population.

Trump lives rent free in your head, these folks in Chicago live in hospitals recovering from bullet wounds, except for the ones that died.

In the last 72 hours, there were 11 people shot in Florida, a state with 20 million people
In the city of Chicago, 33 people shot, a city of 2.7 million

You don't care about them. They're just props. I know it gets you feedback, but the truth is the truth.

Trump is the threat. He needs to be kept front and center. We need to watch his raggedy, janky, crusty butt walk into a prison at some point. Don't ever take your eyes off of him. He, and anything associated with him (all of his enablers) has to be crushed into a fine paste.

I refuse to believe that daily gun violence in certain neighborhoods of Chicago can't be stopped. I can't imagine people struggling with bing afraid to go out at night, hearing gun shots at night every week.
Democratic leaders for decades there have accepted gun violence, failed to deal with it.

Trump? World peace, no war, economic prosparity, record low unemployment, low inflation, respect around the world. America was truly the world leader for 4 years. I guess if you call that a threat.......

I guess you prefer record inflation, war, nuclear threats, impending economic disaster, 600+ thousand COVID deaths even with a vaccine, facism, growing gun violence and racism. Go Biden

He doesn't care about you. You're nothing to him. Yet, you're spreading his inaccurate "accomplishments." He only cares about himself. Whatever fog you're wandering around in, you need to break out of it. There are other Republicans to support other that that dirtbag.

“ World peace, no war, economic prosparity, record low unemployment, low inflation, respect around the world. America was truly the world leader for 4 years “

None of those are true. Well, OK, thanks to Obama inflation was low.

But Trump’s bungling of the Covid crisis put an end to that.




“ 600+ thousand COVID deaths even with a vaccine “

But “ Trump defeated COVID “.

Can’t even remember all your lies? You posted that one less than an hour ago.

Just Chicago. I have another source for all of the USA but they do not compile the data, I have to read each event and sort by city.

Few places have the huge gun violence issues concentrated in small pockets. Places like Austin Illinois, under 100k population, less than 3 sq miles and 77 shootings so far in 2023, Englewood is worse, similar size and population with 86 people shot for 2023.

These shootings don't take into account the massive problems with assaults, robberies, large groups of youths roaming restaurants intimidating patrons.

Chicago as a whole is not exceptionally unsafe, however certain sections are beyond unsafe.

And RgrF your racism is clear

I agree that this many shootings is terrible. You will see gunshot wounds in every big city emergency room (they abbreviate it as GSW in my recollection) but that doesn't excuse Chicago or Nashville or Birmingham or any other place where they occur. But overall, it's our national policy of making gun ownership easy and uncontrolled that is at fault, and it is the limited number of people in small states who tip the Senate the wrong way. Of course the politicians who pander to those people are most at fault.

We never saw this level of reckless gun violence, even before the Brady bill when fully automatic weapons were legal, when actual assault weapons were perfectly legal.

According to the FBI database, fully automatic firearms have only been used in 3 crimes in the US since 1934; 2 of those 3 times the perpetrator was a police officer, the another was a robbery in 1997 where the criminals modified firearms in an attempt to make them fully automatic, but weren't completely successful.

UNLISCENSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! fully automatic weapons. There are about 170K of legally owned fully auto firearms in the US in the hands of private citizens.

I beg of you to be meticulous when you make broad statements that are actually wrong. In reality "effectively banned" just means you pay an extra $200 to the BATFE and they run a really thorough background check.
