Ahem!As I was saying, people went about their business, some armed and some not, as they pleased. Casual criminals were seldom seen and it was impossible to know if one was likely to survive threatening a random citizen or shoppe.But the Morbid Fear of Technology was watching, waiting and biding its time; building an army.
Jeff pissed off 50m gun owners and there family’s. Maybe next he can make a joke of Ali and find out how we need to ban knifes, fertilizer and baseball bats & ect: and the list goes on. lets all just quite reading his strip and he might loose his spot in these comic…..IE it will cost him money.
President Obama commissioned a CDC study in 2013 about ‘gun violence’ – the results were not what I bet he expected (one prime fact – between 500,000 to 2,500,000 successful uses of a legally-owned firearm in self-defense on average per year in the U.S. as opposed to less than 10,000 murders committed with guns):
“Another IGNORANT anti-Gun cartoon by a total moron OBVIOUSLY!!”-If that is your take on it.It is art, you know.When it leaves the desk of its creator, it no longer belongs to him or her. It belongs to whomever should view it and take it in to work it into their own particular views.The art does not harm anybody.The person deciding its target holds responsibility for its application.
This is why the power of public commenting should be reserved for the select few and no ordinary citizen should be allowed to speak aloud in public.They cannot be trusted with that much power.Ordinary people, aside of the wealthy and powerful government elite, do not have the temperament and the wisdom to be entrusted with free speech or firearms.

A man with a knife kills 19 and injures 25 others. Since all the victims were unarmed they couldn’t defend themselves.

Violent crime has been halved since 1990 and gun ownership has doubled in the same time frame. Coincidence? I think not.

The only ones I see who are obsessed with guns are the ones who are obsessed with taking mine away.

Remember, it’s not about gun control; it’s about people control. Guns don’t kill people; people kill people. Right?
