We are on pace to shoot by all but Left Wing Riot induced mass shooting plagued 2020.

That alarms me, particularly as 2019 was a normal year w/o mass riots, and if we prorate ytd mass shootings, we will have over 120% 2019's quantity.

But the guy who wants to commit suicide at one particular moment or the guy who at one particular moment angrily wants to kill somebody might not act.

But, sure, you had to wait to go to the range for a month . . .

How many mass shooters are "law-abiding citizens" . . . until they aren't? 'Cause I got tons to show you . . .

Four+ months for us. Wannabe governor Nikki Fried was slow-walking concealed carry permits as any good leftist would.

Mass shootings, non-mass shootings, crashing cars, brawls in airport lounges... all sorts of mayhem are way up since America decided a little over a year ago that, because George Floyd, it's OK to get mad/crazy/violent.

But mass shootings were already trending upwards long before anyone ever heard of George Floyd... from 270 in 2014 to 417 in 2019, a whopping 65% increase in 5 years.

Because somebody is Asian, we should be able to punch somebody in the face.

Because the election didn't go our way, we should be able to kill Capitol police officers.

Yep, punching Asian people, add that to the list. And lying about what happened at the Capitol, but that's for a different list...

Indeed, turns out telling 320 million Americans to “shutup and lockdown” has massive mental illness consequences.
