@pacoccino @chestnuthillave Also I did a quick skim of this map and MA appears to indeed be bottom 5 in homicide rate according to your own source, so your original assertion seems wrong regardless

@Jallonnn @chestnuthillave MA has a way higher gun homicide rate than VT/NH/ID—all states with very high levels of gun ownership and minimal gun control legislation, if any.
English
Massachusetts has had the lowest rate of gun violence in this country besides Hawaii (which is not easy to bring a gun to) for a number of years. Not much evidence to suggest gun control hasn’t been working here
Jeff Kuhner@TheKuhnerReport
A crazed gunman opened fire indiscriminately on Memorial Drive in Cambridge. Two people were injured. Yet the Boston far-left media is refusing to reveal one key fact: The rifle used by the shooter is ILLEGAL to be owned in MA. So much for gun control! It failed - again. #mapoli
English
@pacoccino @chestnuthillave This is homicide rate, not gun homicide rate.
It goes without saying the most dense state in the country has more homicides than rural states that are less dense by a factor of 10 or more. That is not even close to a good or conclusive argument against the utility of gun control
English
@AnthoNYUPoly @NotoriousVij @ElomNunck @gregcello Trying to have a discussion with you is like pulling teeth. You’re behaving like a child and your arguments sound like a child came up with them
English
that’s weird, I thought MA banned AR-15 style weapons in 2024 and large capacity mags back in 1994?

@AnthoNYUPoly @NotoriousVij @ElomNunck @gregcello I never asked you to explain why you are being disingenuous
English
English
@pacoccino @chestnuthillave Provide your source for only gun homicides, not suicides
English
@chestnuthillave You need to exclude suicides.
And when you do Massachusetts isn’t even bottom-5 in (gun) homicide rates.
English
@AnthoNYUPoly @NotoriousVij @ElomNunck @gregcello Oh but your stat about “safety” which takes into account car accidents is the perfect metric, is that right?
You guys either don’t care about having a genuine discussion or you are much too stupid to actually make a coherent argument in the first place
English
English
@AnthoNYUPoly @NotoriousVij @ElomNunck @gregcello I asked you to reconcile this with your assertion. The fact that big, diverse states like NY, NJ, CA have lower gun death rates than NH kinda prove your assertion incorrect
English
@AnthoNYUPoly @NotoriousVij @ElomNunck @gregcello These are the states with the lowest gun death rates in the country. Can you reconcile this with your assertions?
English
@Jallonnn @NotoriousVij @ElomNunck @gregcello They are Constitutional carry. An armed society is a polite society.
English
@AnthoNYUPoly @NotoriousVij @ElomNunck @gregcello None of the states on the list have the “loosest” gun control. And even ones that are relatively loose are rural states with people extremely spread out, not very good evidence for your point
Just to clarify, is your claim that looser gun control leads to less gun deaths?
English
@Jallonnn @NotoriousVij @ElomNunck @gregcello Four of the top five safest states have the loosest “gun control” laws. Where is your confusion?
English
@AnthoNYUPoly @NotoriousVij @ElomNunck @gregcello I asked you to explain your claim about the left. You refused and instead harped on my off hand comment about weed because you can’t actually provide a reasonable answer
English
@AnthoNYUPoly @NotoriousVij @ElomNunck @gregcello Are you ever going to actually engage in this discussion like a human being are you going to keep throwing up these vague responses that aren’t actually relevant to the conversation at all?
English
@Jallonnn @NotoriousVij @ElomNunck @gregcello The Constitution doesn’t grant people rights. It limits the powers of government. It’s also comical when the left pushes for legalizing drugs and “free healthcare for all” simultaneously.
English
@AnthoNYUPoly @NotoriousVij @ElomNunck @gregcello You were talking about controlling people. Does nothing fall outside of the realm of constitutional amendments?
English
English
@AnthoNYUPoly @NotoriousVij @ElomNunck @gregcello Care to explain that? You can’t even buy weed in most red states lmao
English
@Jallonnn @NotoriousVij @ElomNunck @gregcello The left should quit being disingenuous and just say what they really want…people control.
English
@AnthoNYUPoly @NotoriousVij @ElomNunck @gregcello Such an intelligent and well thought-out analysis of yours lmao
English
English
@AnthoNYUPoly @NotoriousVij @ElomNunck @gregcello The states with high population density and urban environments all need gun control or their gun violence gets out of hand quickly
The more rural states you see don’t require strict gun control measures because the population is so spread out so incidents are much less common
English
@Jallonnn @NotoriousVij @ElomNunck @gregcello 4 out of the 5 safest states have constitutional carry.
It’s almost as if it’s something else…
English
@nick_vito @Golfing__Jack @stephenacap @chestnuthillave Massachusetts is also literally 10x denser than NH. Do you acknowledge that violence in general is a lot more likely in dense areas where more people interact with others much more often?
English
@Golfing__Jack @stephenacap @chestnuthillave Gun violence is worse in Massachusetts than in New Hampshire. And New Hampshire is constitutional carry.

@realMikeBlue @Ohfoohy @JohnstonCY @fg801322 @itsmethanos857 @BartWinklerShow You guys are actually like North Koreans when they believe Kim Jong Un has never pooped before or is incapable of carrying disease.
You guys are actually batshit crazy

I have two principles in this life. Be authentic, and don’t be a hypocrite. To call a guy Sleepy for four years and then to ignore the many times your guy sleeps on camera violates those principles
English
@AnthoNYUPoly @NotoriousVij @ElomNunck @gregcello Literally all of the states with the lowest gun death rates are blue states with common sense gun control laws
English
@NotoriousVij @ElomNunck @gregcello 4 of the top 5 safest states in the nation allow open carry.
It’s almost as if it has nothing to do with guns.

Jayson Tatum did this for years. Used Deuce as a human criticism shield. Stephen A Smith started bringing his daughter to work after he got in some hot water. These guys are sickos.

@_alialkhatib it’s been memory holed but pre-2020 elon was a lefty hero for making environmentally friendly cars. that changed during covid when he got mad about remote work & moved tesla to texas, at which point the dems tried to cancel him with the horse thing, causing him to turn right-wing

i'm really just noticing how conspicuously widespread these references were for a short period of time. it came up in star trek too. did he pay a PR team to try to get his name in tv shows, or were writers just all organically doing this?
