You are correct. My apologies. Someone else did indeed make those claims - YOU stated "there actually IS research supporting [those claims]" So, again: Statements:: "Personally owned guns have probably led to more tyranny in the US" "Widespread gun ownership creates an atmosphere of fear and paranoia in which the police know that at any time they can be shot at. Thus, they become more likely to shoot first and ask questions later if they have the slightest suspicion that someone might be armed." Your claim: "there actually IS research supporting this" Cite - that is, copy and paste - the text in your source that supports this nonsense.
No one cares if you want to distract with comments about racial accusations. It is what it is. By far, the majority of the violent gun crime statistics comes from urban areas in certain cities.
This is true, look at Prison population Demographics, and those commiting Crimes of Violence here in the U.S. mostly Minorities, Blacks and Hispanics, it is not Racist to point this out, Older White Folks are not out there Robbing and Raping and pillaging and standin on street corners in clumps, selling Drugs. The same People claiming Racism are the same claiming Police Officers only arrest Minorities for Crimes and give Whitey a pass when nothing could be further from the Truth.
Yet no one has a solution. Hey maybe you could round up all black people and put them in chains. Oh wait....we did that already
No, it's straight forward for lock up anyone that uses firearms to commit violent crimes. Why are you picking on black people? Why do you stand in the way of law and order?
