Sam J., this is so valuable I am posting your comment as an article so all the readers can check it out. Thanks.
Some statistics I found on another site about gun violence.
"...here are 30,000 gun related deaths per year by firearms, and this number is not disputed. The U.S. population is 324,059,091 as of June 22, 2016 (the last searchable census numbers) Do the math: 0.000000925% of the population dies from gun related actions each year. Statistically speaking, this is insignificant! What is never told, however, is a breakdown of those 30,000 deaths, to put them in perspective as compared to other causes of death:
-65% of those deaths are by suicide, which would never be prevented by gun laws.
-15% are by law enforcement in the line of duty and justified.
-17% are through criminal activity, gang and drug related or mentally ill persons – better known as gun violence.
-3% are accidental discharge deaths.
So technically, “gun violence” is not 30,000 annually, but drops to 5,100. Now lets look at how those deaths spanned across the nation:
-480 homicides (9.4%) were in Chicago
-344 homicides (6.7%) were in Baltimore
-333 homicides (6.5%) were in Detroit
-119 homicides (2.3%) were in Washington D.C. (a 54% increase over prior years)
So basically, 25% of all gun crime happens in just 4 cities. All 4 of those cities have strict gun laws, so it is not the lack of law that is the root cause. This basically leaves 3,825 for the entire rest of the nation, or about 75 deaths per state -an average because some States have much higher rates than others. For example, California had 1,169 and Alabama had 1..."

Watch those decimal points!!
30,000 out of 324,000,000 is NOT .0000009% but is .009% - out by a factor of 10,000.
And Alabama had 1 what?
Otherwise, a good approach to understanding the numbers. Check 'em good, because people need to use these in discussions ....

You're right about the percent I didn't check that. Big difference.
My understanding is homicides with firearms. I don't think this includes stabbing, beating to death, bankers thrown out buildings or people committing suicide with nail guns(maybe it should count the nail gun suicides). That sort of thing.
What this means is Niցցers in Alabama can't aim for shit.
Just to make sure it's properly understood. I found this on

Who said he got it from someone else. It doesn't sound all that off because one time I was ranting about Black on White crime and decided to look the numbers up on Whites killed by Blacks. I can't remember the exact number but it was something like 550 a year, maybe. I didn't use that number anymore cause it really fucked my ranting and a good rant is precious and a horrible thing to waste.
Now I found this new link by looking at the Florida school shooting. It turns out that there's a reason no one did anything about this guy being trouble, not that I actually believe that he did it at all. It seems that there's a lot of FED grant money tied to reducing violence in schools. So what do the schools do, they bury it. They just refuse to report school and teenager crime. This was found by a guy researching the Trayvon Martin case. He stumbled onto it. I think this may be a huge BINGO on James continuous warnings about school kids getting out of school and causing havoc. I think this might be one of those hinge points that causes all kinds of downstream effects. Here's the link.

OK I started looking at numbers and here's CDC data from 2014. It's close. I took out the 65% suicide from the 30,000 and got 10,500. CDC says 11,008. So except for the percentage part I think the numbers used at first are very close and good to use.
cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/homicide.htm
Mortality
All homicides
Number of deaths: 15,872
Deaths per 100,000 population: 5.0
Firearm homicides
Number of deaths: 11,008
Deaths per 100,000 population: 3.5
If there were no firearms I bet the numbers would be a lot lower looking at the firearm vs. not firearm. I wonder if the better numbers are not directly related to how good a job emergency rooms are at saving shot people if they can get them in the building. It would nice to see actual shooting numbers. Personally it's better to have firearms so the Jews don't kill us all.
It's astounding that so much of this is in such a confined area. We could stomp the whole thing out in no time at all if we used my miraculous "Great Western Permaculture Project"(gulag). Look at what they did in NYC. They just stopped Blacks and searched them and if they had weapons hauled them off to jail. I don't know for sure but I bet the more times they went to jail they were warned by the judge to never come back or they would face real hard time so they left, making the crime rate plummet. A fancy word for this is Gentrification but it's actually DeDinduification.
I read somewhere that the US, per population, actually had less school shootings than Europe did. Who knows if that's right.
@ Sam J.:
Those fatality numbers at Parksville seems improbably high or maybe completely non-existent. So far, all I've seen is a lot of (B-grade) acting and activism. (Mr. Hogg, keep the story simple, not convoluted. Lies have long legs.)
