Health workers need optimal respiratory protection for Ebola

[Dakine10 5,452]

Assault weapon and assault by a firearm are two very different things. The threat of being hurt by an assault weapon is almost nonexistent yet harped on all the time by Anti-Gun crowd as the number one issue.

However expressing concern about a possible epidemic with victims in the many 1000's is paranoia. Only in the world of the loony left

You forgot the assault part last time. I think you said casualty weapon so I assumed you meant weapon casualty.

Anyway assault weapons are probably out in front of Ebola still. I suppose that could change. I don't specifically worry about either. I am more generally concerned about the potential loss of life caused by irresponsible gun use and uncurable diseases. Among other things.

Oddly Casualty weapons would fall to the left of Fireworks, but no one calls out the loony anti gun crowd for mass hysteria on that issue .

Let it be known that NB is claiming that 8 > 30,000.

Yes, that's right. There were 8 fireworks related fatalities in the US in 2013 - most recent year I could find.

On the other hand, there are well over 30,000 firearms related deaths in this country every year.

And yet, NB claims that fireworks deaths outpace firearms deaths. Hence, he believes that 8 > 30,000.

I will remind him of this every chance I get.

Let it be known that - try as he may - blue still can't respond to a post with anything even marginally related to that post.

If Cuba were good, why did Ted Cruz leave to come to the US?

Maybe he thought that if a Kenyan can get elected, why not a Cuban?

Yes yes, liberals should move to Cuba and conservatives to Saudi Arabia. YAWN.

There's Ascension Island. It should be big enough.
