The new research also suggests a paradox: While blacks are significantly more likely than whites to be gun homicide victims, blacks are only about half as likely as whites to have a firearm in their home (41% vs. 19%). Hispanics are less likely than blacks to be gun homicide victims and half as likely as whites to have a gun at home
(20%).

17 Years After Gun Bans in Australia …Police Say Gun Crime is Out of Control
August 22, 2013
australia gun crime is out of control says police commissioner
In 1996 Australia unloaded some of the most severe gun bans and gun confiscation programs on record. And for the guns that were not confiscated gun owners were forced to enter into license agreements and have their guns registered so the government knew what guns everyone had.
Well, they really only knew what guns the law abiding had, since none of the criminals actually followed the program. Fancy that.
Breitbart just reported some interesting developments in Australia that prove all the anti-gun lawmakers wrong. Gun control does NOT take guns out of the hands of criminals, it only disarms the law abiding, while making everyone less safe.
Because of the out of control crime, Australia law enforcement officials have been forced to carry out recent operations
The New South Wales police commissioner Andrew Scipione had this to say about the spike in gun crime, Survive the End Days
“There is no single source of gun violence… guns have fallen into the hands of organized crime, outlaw motorcycle gangs, mid-level crime groups and petty thieves and the lines are often blurred.”
So it looks like the only ones left with all the guns are the criminals. And the gun policies that Australia has enforced are the exact ones that gun control pushers like Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Senator Dianne Feinstein want to see here in the U.S.
Of course they will ignore the real facts behind the issue and overlook the fact that when guns are banned only the police and the criminals will have guns, leaving citizens to fend for themselves when lawlessness like we have seen in Australia starts to rise up.
In the last 12 months alone, over 3,300 people were charged with gun crimes, and over 9,000 guns have been confiscated.
The lesson? Gun control only affects the law abiding gun owners. Criminals are empowered by it.

So... do you consider all these imprisoned criminals to be GunHuggers? If not, why post it here?

Nah...Just showing a country that hunts down it's citizens like dogs and puts them in cages at the highest rate in the world. It's a graphic showing American greatness and the "good laws" that keep America great.
I can't understand why people would want guns with the success the government has keeping the bad people locked away in cages.
In Case There Was Ever A Doubt That Ted Cruz Was A Douche...
I'm sure this will get the vote of America's Knuckle Draggers

It’s happened again. Yet another open carry supporter — one who regularly posts on Facebook and talks about how guns keep us safe — murdered two family members in cold blood before attempting to take his own life. No one can truly know why he did it but on Saturday, Shawn Fuller ended the lives of his 3- and 4-year-old sons.
Fuller is a die-hard conservative. He even warns us of this in a recent Facebook profile photo change:

You forgot the picture of him wearing a shirt with a red white and blue bald eagle and his kid wearing an American Flag shirt. That American Flag triggers people to want to kill.
