FBI: More People Killed by Hammers, Clubs than with Rifles

[Aim1]

For those that say so-called assault weapons are the biggest threat to American lives.

And the number is 467 killed with hammers compared to 403 with rifles of any kind. So, 64 more killed with hammers.

Also didn’t realize how many people are killed with hammers yearly. Wow.

People are more scared of firearms in real life than they are of clubs.
I doubt facts like that will persuade anyone.....

This is incredible rebuttal info., pro-2A "ammunition" so to speak, for counter arguments to gun laws. Thanks for posting.

Its strangely difficult to fight perception with facts.

Simply put, people would rather believe a convenient lie than an inconvenient fact.

To play devil’s advocate...

A hammer isn’t capable of being used to kill 10, 15, 20 people (ie a mass shooting). This is a big point for antis and a fair argument in this particular instance of people wanting to address mass shootings.

Take away guns. Ppl will use bombs, cars, poison,etc. If there is evil intention. Nothing will stop them. Look at what Timothy Mcvae (spelling) did with fertilizer and a truck.

They’re not talking about stopping evil, they’re talking about addressing mass shootings.

Mass shooting is all about evil. No way to stop either. Ban them criminals will still possess them. Lose/lose no matter what.

I have a tactical Hammer, I was going to get a black handle and maybe a tactical hammer-mounted light but I didn't want to run afoul of the 'assault hammer' laws:

That’s a separate argument (whether a ban will work) and one I agree with.

Prohibition in general doesn’t work.

 

[Meeks36]

Any type of ban is the beginning of the end IMO. For what's it's worth. It's not a gun problem it's a people problem. No respect for life.

No they aren't; they are after total control by the government. If they really wanted to address the problem, they would be looking at the causes, not the tools used. But they do not. Why do they do nothing about the mass shootings that happen in Chicago every weekend? The nazi socialists portraying themselves as progressive Democrats are mad that their deep state coup against Trump failed. it would not surprise me in the least that these shootings have been arranged in some manner by the Bloomberg/Soros/Clinton NWO.

JMO, YMMV, and no, my tinfoil hat fits just fine

I’m guessing this will definitely help our case with fence sitters.
