I can't do the past century, but I can give you the murder statistics by weapon for 2015 in all US States and territories. I'll give you the totals, but the graph is here: https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/20 ... s/table-20SilverEagle wrote:Wait a minute...You're anti assault weapons?

I agree.
I do believe that folks say of the Bundy Mindset would be pushed harder to pull the trigger. They would be thinking about Waco and Ruby Ridge. I'm trying to think of analogous Right Wing activity to what the Left is doing right now, and I really can't. If someone has examples I'm all ears.
@BroGrump
The Metric is not the last few weeks, how about try the last 100 years. Go ahead and count riots, civil unrest, etc. and tell us who is responsible for an overwhelming majority of them.
Don't forget to toss Tulsa in the mix as well, thanks.
Handguns: 6,447
Rifles: 252
Shotguns: 269
Firearms (type unknown): 2,648
Knives or cutting instruments: 1,544
Other Weapons: 1,671
Hands, Fists, Feet, etc..: 624
Which one of those constitutes assault weapons, Grumps?
