His latest 'Gun Fact' post takes the cake and has shown just how delusional this person is. The title gives you a clue that Elliot needs some meds:
If Only The Criminals Had Guns, U.S. Gun Homicides Would Plummet.OK, titles can be exaggeration. We'll give him a pass on that for now.
The usual US vs UK gun comparisons w/ no historical comparison. Old hat, right? But then this:
It is the law-abiding citizens with guns, not the criminals, who are committing the majority of the gun homicides.By 'law abiding citizens', he includes in that category mass murders and terrorists who weren't included in the 'prohibited' category due primarily to gov't screw ups.
I wonder how he can claim this being that he's previously claimed that 'There is no such thing as a law abiding citizen'? Is he saying there's no gun homicides? Being that he's in Chicago, how does he then explain Chicago Police Dept. reports stating that 87% of the homicides committed in the city are by those w/ prior arrest records (pg56/57)?
Gun control is a mental illness and Elliot Fineman is the head patient.

Lol, even if 'we' were to take the blame for every mass murder or terror incident, gang and drug related shootings still outnumber them easily. They just don't get the same media attention.
He is either utterly delusional, or is a gun rights advocate, under deep cover, pretending to be a deranged "gun control" advocate, in order to discredit the other side.
It's Orwellian double-speak.
Are we law abiding citizens or not?
Is the term "homicide" just being thrown around in an inflammatory manner without any justification? I may kill a home invader but, there is a big distinction between justified homicide and murder.
Are criminals armed or not? If so, isn't it illegal for them to be so?
Are criminals responsible for the majority of violence and murders (which include the use of guns), or not?
Is the U.K. a defense-free zone where hot burglary is a common occurrence and criminals are armed despite living on an island nation?
Am I, and also millions of other citizens to be punished for the criminality of a few? Are we living in a communist country?
There is a whole lot of slushy thinking and terms being used in a manner to besmirch me, a decent citizen. I do not appreciate it.
Braden Lynch:
I was wondering the same thing...
I recall hearing earlier this year about the skyrocketing homicide rate in Detroit and the surrounding areas.
And how the vast majority of these were justified.
