Slight difference though..

Deaths by dogs UK 1981 - 2015 = 78

Deaths by guns US 2019 = 39052

The vast majority of US gun deaths are suicides or violence from a specific minority group against the same group

Shows how effective the truth is.

 

Statistically, that doesnt happen very often.

 

Do double duty. Get a SIG 210. You probably would need to pony up 3K. Ifyou want me tofind one for you on the net I will, then it will of course get shipped to your dealer for the necessary paperwork.

 

I don't know anybody gladly laying their arms down as long as Bernie, Biden, AOC are around. 

 

The argument always loses steam when the unarmed libs realize it would take a war to take "the guns" No Sheriff would enforce it.

Reporter apologised refer below. Has trump ever apologised for his approx 20k false and misleading statements?

 

“My apologies for quoting the president out of context,” Phillips tweeted. “As The Washington Post’s Fact Checker makes clear, he called Democrats politicizing coronavirus a hoax

Masks? seems spot on with rejection of his allegations

Not going to clash with anything else you mentioned but Trump did not say the nurses were stealing the masks, the media added that bit. I will try to find the newspaper report that specifically said nurses.

This is from the above ABC report -

"Of all the rotten, despicable things Donald Trump has done since taking office, blaming health care workers for the lack of masks is like top 3," Connecticut Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy wrote on Twitter.

 

Trump did not blame anybody.

Trump did not blame anybody.

He made allegations / inferences. From the Vox article...

 

the president later underscored his claim by saying, “I don’t think it’s hoarding ... I think maybe it’s worse than hoarding.”

 

the president of the Greater New York Hospital Association, Kenneth Raske, who said in a statement, “New York’s health care workers are treating exploding numbers of Covid-19 patients around the clock — willingly and without complaint. ... They deserve better than their president suggesting that PPE is ‘going out the back door’ of New York hospitals.”

Trump coronavirus guidance on keeping gun stores open draws criticism

 

 

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Gun control activists on Monday criticized guidance issued by President Donald Trump's administration recommending that states find that gun stores are critical businesses that can stay open during the coronavirus crisis.

 

The new guidance, issued on Saturday by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, offers the administration's views on which workers are essential during the pandemic at a time when state governors have ordered numerous "non-essential" businesses to close to try to limit the spread of the virus.
