This is the sort of article that should lead to a flat-out boycott and destruction of this "newspaper".
Specifically, they speak of Mexico, which has extremely stringent gun laws -- and only one legal gun store. They make this out to be better than the United States, but intentionally fail to state the obvious: Their murder rate is 17.03 per 100,000 people (in 2016) or roughly three times that of the United States and roughly double the gun homicide rate even though the US has six times more guns per-person than Mexico does.
In other words the number of guns owned and the ease of acquiring them has nothing to do with the gun homicide rate nor with the murder rate overall.
What does?
Are you completely dense?

In NY I did not like the NY Times much. I preferred the NY Post and NY Daily. They fell in quality after around 2000 but then recently seemed to be getting better. In any case the Times always seemed slanted to me to the degree that I could not stand reading it. It felt like reading the Pravda.
ReplyDeleteAgreed.
DeleteThere's a reason I call them the "New York Times-Traitor".
ReplyDeleteScrewed that up. :) S/B RT/Sputnik are more bipartisan.
