"Democracies make choices. Americans accept mass murder to defend an individual right to bear arms in the name of personal freedom."
Actually, Jagermeister stole the quote above from the anti-gun troll King Brown. I suppose that may be why he put it in quotation marks. He should attribute it to his fellow troll.
King also said this:
....Americans choose how they want to live, accept mass murder, mass school executions, mass incarceration (suddenly recognized as wrong). As much as they dislike it, little is done about it. Democracies make choices but few modern countries are as burdened in solving these societal problems as the US with three centuries of a ruinous race legacy.
And this:
Pew Research has a good reputation, Jim. It's a source in the link Ed posted. Crime is declining in Canada, too, although our tougher-on-crime federal government can't build jails and penitentiaries fast enough.
Misfires seems near unanimous that there's no correlation between the number of guns and surpassing US gun violence, and that more guns lowers a homicide rate experienced nowhere else in the developed world.
I believe there is a connection---as most liberals do--- and that those conservative and liberal countries with exceedingly lower rates are a result of their democratically chosen, more-onerous, freedom-restricting regulations, common-sense or not.
I commented earlier on the cultural differences between the US and other countries in this respect, including how differently the US and Canada developed. Why do Americans dismiss the graphs and statistics?
It really bothers King that we prefer to keep our Constitutional freedoms rather than surrender them to his fellow Leftist Liberals. Even when shown that the U.S. has far from the highest homicide rate of any developed nation, he kept repeating the same false information. He, Jagermeister, and Ed Good never wish to acknowledge that terrorists with box cutters killed almost 3000 people on 9-11. Nor do they ever have a comment about the 1991 mass murder at the Happy Land Dance Club in NYC where an enraged patron who was thrown out bought a dollars worth of gasoline and doused the only staircase leading into the club, and lit it on fire. 87 young people were killed... without any guns.

http://www.slate.com/blogs/crime/2012/12...n_american.htmlKing swears up and down that he is not anti-gun or anti-2nd Amendment, yet threads like this show where he stands every time. It sure isn't on the side of an Individual Right to Keep and Bear Arms.
