You’ll Never Believe What the FBI Says Is Deadlier Than Assault Rifles

You’ll Never Believe What the FBI Says Is Deadlier Than Assault Rifles

43628922_sLiberals want you to believe the ubiquitous assault rifle is the deadliest weapon in the nation.
That’s why they’re constantly on the attack, trying to make sure you and everyone else knows if it’s got a pistol grip and a magazine greater than 10 rounds it shouldn’t be in the hands of ordinary people.
Problem with this line of thinking is there’s no evidence to support their claims. Even more troubling is that they seem to be effectively indoctrinating most of America in this belief.
Perhaps most troubling is there’s something even more dangerous than the assault rifle and 99.9% of Americans have access to them regardless of age, race, creed, etc.
Curious what’s more dangerous than assault rifles, heck, ALL rifles?
Hands and feet.

Everyday there’s a murder in the United States. And everyday, the U.S. public gets hit with another demand for more “gun control.”
The FBI just released its 2014 list of crime statistics, and there are some data findings that conflict with the calls for more firearms regulations.
The Uniform Crime Reports “2014 crime in the United States” breaks down murder by state, and includes the U.S. territories of the Virgin Islands and Guam.

It shows that there were 11,961 murders in 2014 (there were 31 total in the U.S. territories). And 8,124 of those were committed by firearms.
This is how those numbers look in perspective:
FBI-Murder-Victims-2013
Notice that total murders and firearms murders have dropped again.
More salient for the “gun control” conversation, however, is the focus on so-called “assault rifles.” It turns out that murders by all rifles (as reported by the FBI), including homicides by those semi-automatic rifles that some refer to as “assault rifles,” were only 248 of those murders.
Further contextualizing this statistic is that the total number of murders committed by people’s hands and feet came to 660 – more than double the homicides committed by all rifles.
More precisely, there were 142% more murders by hands and feet in 2014 than by all rifles combined.
It really is too bad this evidence won’t be run by the lamestream media.
They’ll ignore these findings and then run with concocted stories about how mass shootings are on the rise (they’re not) and how the homicide rate is up all over ( it isn’t).
The media has proven over time they care about nothing else other than their agenda.
Do everyone in America a favor.
Share this and let them know assault rifles aren’t as deadly as the media makes them look.
