At Least Four Dead After Shooting In Fredericton, Canada

Cary is the seventh-largest municipality statewide -- larger than most of the cities in our state.

Seventh largest municipality in a mid sized state to make this side of your argument but use cities like Chicago to make the other side of your argument,got it.

Yeah it's amazing in the U.S. all the felons incarcerated for gun crimes they committed in cities with strict gun control laws. Why don't these felons in Chicago and other cities simply obey the gun control laws and not shoot people with guns.
They do obey the gun control laws, don't they. I don't know what the gun control laws are in chicago, but I think most gun killings are done with legal guns, aren't they. You'd have to change the gun control laws if your goal was to decrease the probability of deaths from gun shot, wouldn't you?
 
What you think may or may not have any useful correlation with reality. Correct?

This link has some good information. You may wish to check this against the FBI database.

It's much easier to categorize homicides as 1) committed by regular citizens or 2) committed by criminals who are already prohibited from owning firearms. The FBI's Uniform Crime Reports have tons of data that can be picked apart and sorted (and unless otherwise noted, all the figures I mention come from the 2010 UCR), but it can get a little complicated to categorize, so these numbers are heavily disputed by both sides. Also note that in 2010, only 67.5% of all murders were committed by firearms (UCR), so these numbers aren't entirely 1:1 when applied only to gun violence.

However, according to the DOJ's 1998 Felony Defendants in Large Urban Counties report, 58% of all murderers had at least one felony conviction, 70% had other convictions, and 81% had arrest records. While misdemeanors and arrest records are not the no-questions-ban of a felony conviction, they are serious impediments to legally buying guns, particularly in large urban counties which tend to have stricter gun laws, and, ironically, more gun violence. Obviously, these 60-80% go in Bucket 2.


They do obey the gun control laws, don't they. I don't know what the gun control laws are in chicago, but I think most gun killings are done with legal guns, aren't they. You'd have to change the gun control laws if your goal was to decrease the probability of deaths from gun shot, wouldn't you?

Finding out what facts first, Spike? Was there a shooting or not? That's all I quoted.

Your obsession with me is beginning to rival your obsession with Bill Oreilly.


Did you know O'reilly is making a comeback ?
He tweeted ''If Lebron James wanted to make an impact , he should have went to Chicago and helped those schoolchildren.'' wah wah wahhh.
Some lady tweeted back , ''Yeah Bill , if you didn't have to pay $50 Million for sexually molesting all those ladies , you could have done the same,''
Trump should really consider giving him a position.:).

Most gun killings are not done with legally owned firearms.

I didn't know, no. He's your obsession, not mine.
