In the midst of a challenging pandemic, many American cities have been under siege. Amid violence and riots, the rule of law has been abandoned by the same elected officials who swore to uphold it. Law-abiding citizens who unwittingly drove through protests have found themselves attacked or left to the mercy of a mob.
The promotion of civil unrest and the systematic destruction of neighborhoods and businesses have been permitted with limited consequences under the guise of the First Amendment’s protection of the right to protest. Yet when the case for protecting the Second Amendment couldn’t be stronger to reasonable Americans, the left is yet again trying to weaken it.
And the new FBI report doesn’t help the left narratives because more Americans have died by punches and kicks than by rifles in 2019.
The Uniform Crime Report (UCR) compiled by the FBI shows that in 2019 almost TWICE as many people were killed with hands and feet than with all rifles put together.
The FBI reports that 364 Americans were killed with rifles in 2019, while 600 were killed by bodily attacks like punches, kicks, and pushes.

You may only think of deer-hunting rifles when you think of “rifles” as a category, but by way of reminder, the AR-15 (which the media has turned into the boogeyman of all weapons) is the most popular firearm in America and is a RIFLE. Being a rifle, all deaths by way of AR-15s (or, as they’re known in the media, assault weapons) are included in these statistics.
Guess it’s time to ban hands and feet, ladies and gentlemen.
Oh, and guess how many Americans were killed with knives in 2019?
1,476.
More than four times the number of Americans killed by all rifles, including AR-15s, combined.

We’d better ban all kitchen knives as well.
As Americans, our constitutional rights and individual liberties are not just a source of patriotic pride but the lifeblood of our democracy. The founders knew that the right of citizens to bear arms was essential to the preservation of democracy and liberty. The Second Amendment ensures that Americans can protect themselves, their families and their businesses, especially when the government is unwilling or unable to do so. And many Americans are indeed now choosing to exercise their Second Amendment rights; a national indicator for gun sales is at an all-time high.

Feet and hands are weapons of war. Think of the children!

Murder should be made illegal, and I'm going to write my congress critters right no to see when they will make murder illegal, and to ask why they've not done that yet! If they would just get off of their asses and make murder illegal, then all the weaponry would be covered, and the means to murder would be moot!
