It is only weird standing in fly-over country, not where normal people live.

normal people don't live on fault lines next to an ocean. hippies, freaks, and wierdos do.

Only points south of here will fall into the ocean. I am north and east of the San Andreas, unlike those water-stealing scumbag Grapes of Wrath Okies living in SoCal.

Don't be trying to impress your gender stereotypes on me!

Here is a list of the deadliest rampage killing in the Americas, take a look at the ethnicity of all the ones that happend in the US:

Black/hispanic/asians aren't even 1% of this list.

What I am trying to say if you got rid of all the minorities, you'd still have crime. Maybe not drive by shootings or gang related death, but death still.

To be fair, I completely agree with your assessment. As you said, education is the key statistical factor not race. I was being lazy by referencing race.

And then there's this - the higher the gun ownership rates, the higher the firearm deaths.

Facts suck! We should ban them, eh?

Whats that chart like minus suicide (probably why AK is at the top)

[Mr. Big Dog 10,747]

Why does that matter? Is a suicide victim somehow less dead?

Anybody else notice that chart looks like a day at the gun range?

Since you are asking, I will tell you:

Crime isn't associated by color. Now I will say due to the numbers that blacks have more violent crime and robbery, but what's interesting about that: For men in their early thirties, African-Americans are about 7 times more likely to have a prison record than whites. They are more likely to have been in prison (22.4 percent) than in the military (17.4 percent). African Americans are given longer federal sentences than Whites who are sentenced for the same or equivalent crimes, even when factoring criminal records. African American jail sentences tend to be roughly 10% longer than white jail sentences for the same crimes.[36] However, more blacks are enrolled in college than in prison. According to the US Census Bureau as of the year 2000 there were 2,224,181 blacks enrolled in college.[37] In that same year there were only 610,300 black inmates in prison according to the Bureau of Justice.[38] 12.5 percent have a bachelor's degree.[citation needed] The results are highly dependent on education. 30 percent of those without college education and nearly 60 percent of high school dropouts had prison records Remember when I was talking about education and not guns being the answer?

Now let's look at other crimes, like embezzlement, fraud, child molestation, mass murderers, and many others, who do you think leads in these areas? Ill give you a hint, it ins't black people.

I bet it's white people. Just guessing. That's why if there is a mass murder going on around here I want them profiling white people,
