Like 2.3 guns per person

2017-11-07 20:26:47 UTC  

People don't realize there is a clean break between the legal market and illegal market for firearms

2017-11-07 20:27:37 UTC  

Most guns used in crime are handguns, primarily compact or subcompact low cost semi-autos, rarely in calibers larger than 9mm

2017-11-07 20:28:30 UTC  

Rifles used in crime are exceedingly rare, fewer than 5% of weapons confiscated by the police are long guns

2017-11-07 20:29:56 UTC  

The vast majority are stolen, most of the rest are straw purchases

2017-11-07 20:30:25 UTC  

People buying guns legally and using them in a crime is almost unheard of

2017-11-07 20:31:15 UTC  

Gun shops are required by law to keep records of sales for a short period of time

2017-11-07 20:39:25 UTC  

My favorite thing is when journos say something like "long guns" or "assault weapons", then roll with it like those terms mean something concrete

Seems unbiased

2017-11-07 20:49:05 UTC  

north korea....

2017-11-07 20:54:25 UTC  

pretty much

the last tweet's most popular response is just the 'stop stop he's already dead' gif

2017-11-07 20:56:15 UTC

This is old, but still good

2017-11-07 21:25:10 UTC  

Strange to think that, back then, people got the fucking joke:

2017-11-07 21:25:57 UTC  

What do you mean?

2017-11-07 21:26:04 UTC  

Look off to the right

2017-11-07 21:26:16 UTC  

Some of those dudes could probably have served during the actual war

2017-11-07 21:26:19 UTC  

and they're still laughing

2017-11-07 21:26:46 UTC  

The culture today is hypersensitive

2017-11-07 21:26:51 UTC  

Oh

2017-11-07 21:26:54 UTC  

Got it

2017-11-07 21:27:09 UTC  

Like, I guess that 2-3 years ago people would see it as a joke too

2017-11-07 21:27:26 UTC  

Things ramped up pretty quick

2017-11-07 21:27:34 UTC  

Shit got worse after Trump got it

2017-11-07 21:27:38 UTC  

I think Richard Belzer threw out a salute a few years back

2017-11-07 21:27:58 UTC  

Not sure if Motherboard wrote about how 'problematic' it is that celebritites are 'normalising fascist culture' or something though

2017-11-07 21:30:20 UTC  

I don't know what happened to vice, they had a share of progressive stuff, but they also had a good share of good stuff

2017-11-07 21:30:26 UTC  

oh well

2017-11-07 21:30:34 UTC  

Funny you mention Vice

2017-11-07 21:30:47 UTC  

Their cover of Ukraine was awesome

2017-11-07 21:31:13 UTC  

I was going to say a few hours ago how it's so weird that Vice Sports still seems like a good source for things, whereas the rest of Vice has just slid downhill at a rapid pace

2017-11-07 21:32:02 UTC  

They figured money can be easily made from beeing partisan

2017-11-07 21:32:11 UTC  

Probably

2017-11-07 21:32:51 UTC  

Still, do you know if they had a change of team or something?
