Funny how none of these Onion stories appeared last year when more than 1000 people were shot in Baltimore City, 350 of them died, including at least 13 under the age of 18. At least 95% of the victims were Black. Of course, this occurred in a city and state run by Democrats for several decades. If you can’t blame Republicans or the NRA, all you hear is crickets.
Funny AND sad.

ReplyDeleteSad, but not at all funny…

DeleteThanks, I stand corrected.
DeleteThis Chicago, Baltimore, St. Louis narrative on gun violence doesn't seem like it tells the whole story...

Thank you, Andy, for sending some actual data (the PBS one is a truncated nonclickable screencap from the second)
