How many inconstistencies have you seen about the shooting in D.C. this morning?

I did a quick google search and found articles claiming 10 shot, 6 dead, and 7 dead on the first page alone.

How many saying it's a result of too little gun control?

I don't know. I just scanned to look for inconsistencies and immediately noticed the amount of deaths being reported.

That can't be the case this time because this was in Washington DC. And to any gun control advocate saying that was because of pro gun states near by, two words for you.... PUERTO RICO.

Puerto Rico is an ISLAND with stringent gun laws and with no pro gun states to drive to. Homicide is also fairly high at a range of 25-30/100,000



See all that blue?

There was also a mass shooting in Puerto Rico about four years back. The La Tombola Shooting, which killed seven people and injured twenty.

Want another example?

Here is a big one- JAMAICA



Again look at all that blue.

Jamaica passed some of the most stringent gun laws in 1974. Whats the result. Homicide rate jumped from 11.3 in 1973 to 19.5 1977 and during 1980 it went to 41.7. Some success this was, isn't it? And according to the UNODC homicide stats Jamaica's current rate is 40.9/100000

Like that stops them when it's Chicago or Massachusetts.

Some of the Comments got deleted. I wonder if this has to do with censorship and cowardice







Just look at how many have been deleted
