Midknight Review -- new and revised: Let's put the "crisis" of gun ownership in perspective, shall we? 2011 there were 364 deaths by rifle fire and 745 deaths of people beaten to death without the use of weaponry of any kind -- just beaten to death (no article)

I wonder how many people were killed by the government because they did not have a gun. I also wonder how many people were killed by people that tried and failed to obtain a gun. My guess is that there is no statistics for either of these because if the number is above zero it is so small that statistics aren't even counted.

I also wonder how many people were killed by their own or a friend's gun or how many children were killed with their parents' guns.

Guns don't kill people. People with guns kill people.

Let's return the favor, shall we?

CLINTON: You cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for, what you care about. That’s why I believe if we are fortunate enough to win back the House and/or the senate, that’s when civility can start again. But until then, the only thing that the Republicans seem to recognize and respect is strength. And you heard how the Republican members led by Mitch McConnell, the president really demeaned the confirmation process.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
