America isn't the only country in the world with hardware stores yet is still the only country in the world with weekly mass shootings -- 80% of which use legally purchased firearms and 0% of which use home made guns.
Oh I'm sorry, they've been used in three mass shootings since 2013, which is almost 0.01% of mass shootings in that period. How terribly misleading of my propaganda.
Practically neck and neck with the 80% that use legally purchased firearms and the 10% that use the legally purchased and poorly secured firearm of a family member.

You’re getting downvoted to shit on most of your comments but just wanted to say you are not wrong.
Except comments where I use a % -- those still have a conspicuously positive score. I wonder if someone's sleazy tools are being thrown off by it?
