        Meanwhile...

        6 Reasons Gun Control Will Not Solve Mass Killings

        5. Mass killers often find ways to kill even without firearms.
        • Some of the worst mass killings in the United States have occurred without firearms:
          • Before the 2016 Orlando nightclub shooting, the deadliest attack on the LGBT community in America occurred in 1973 when an arsonist killed 32 and injured 15 at the Upstairs Lounge in New Orleans.
          • In 1987, a disgruntled former airline employee killed 43 people after he hijacked and intentionally crashed a passenger plane.
          • In 1990, an angry ex-lover burned down the Happy Land social club where his former girlfriend worked, killing 87 others in the process.
          • In 1995, 168 people were killed and more than 600 were injured by a truck bomb parked outside the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
          • In 2017, a man in New York City killed eight and injured 11 by renting a truck and plowing down pedestrians on a Manhattan bike path.
        • In other countries, bombings, mass stabbings, and car attacks frequently kill more people than even the deadliest mass shootings in the United States. Consider the following:
          • Spain (2004) — Bombing: 192 deaths, 2,050 injuries;
          • Great Britain (2005) — Bombing: 52 deaths, 784 injuries;
          • Japan (2008) — Car ramming and stabbing: seven deaths, 10 injuries;
          • China (2010) — Shovel-loader: 11 deaths, 30 injuries;
          • China (2014) — Car ramming: six deaths, 13 injuries;
          • China (2014) — Mass stabbing: 31 deaths, 143 injuries;
          • Germany (2015) — Plane crash: 150 deaths;
          • Belgium (2016) — Bombing: 21 deaths, 180 injuries;
          • France (2016) — Car ramming: 86 deaths, 434 injuries;
          • Germany (2016) — Car ramming: 11 deaths, 56 injuries;
          • Japan (2016) — Mass stabbing: 19 deaths, 45 injuries; and
          • Great Britain (2017) — Bombing: 22 deaths, 250 injuries.
        The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

          Well at least you're admitting it.

                  I don't expect much from an uneducated racist immoral ignorant hick from one of the worst states in a failed country, but somehow he manages to perform below expectations.

                      I'll have you know I am educated FAR beyond my intelligence, buster!

                      Laughing --- "worst States", "failed country"..... yet hundreds of thousands of people are trying to come here all the time. You really are amusing.

                          I have noticed in recent exchanges that the same group of individuals show a remarkably poor grasp of the rudiments of the grammar of their own language.

                          No understanding of the purpose of using qualifiers in a sentence.
                          An inability to recognise different examples of figurative language.
                          Confusion over nouns.
                          No understanding of the importance of qualifying a statement.
                          An inability to recognise, and differentiate between, main and subordinate clauses.
                          An inability to identify a complex sentence.

                                Typos have nothing to do with poorly composed prose or the display of marked ignorance towards the basics of English grammar.
