I’ve been in talk radio a long time. I remember when Ben and Steven first came on the scene. I told my audience to watch out for these guys and promoted their work on my shows. I respect them both.
It’s never a good position to be in when people you respect get so mad at you.
I suppose I owe you all an explanation.
Why are Ben Shapiro and Steven Crowder so mad at me right now? What’s all this fuss about?
Well …
This …
I have a better shirt than they have.
That is saying a lot for Steven Crowder because he makes some great shirts. Ben … well … Ben dresses like his wife dresses him and she cares about how he looks. His shirts are terrible.
In a better world, I wouldn’t have to have a disclaimer on a shirt but even with it, I’ve been targeted by Facebook for my #KPL shirt.
Not surprising. I’ve been the victim of online censorship for over 14 years. Long before most mainstream conservatives even believed it was happening.
Imagine being this butthurt that someone is advocating for the legal death penalty for child rapists. What a world we live in now.
Lucky for Steven Crowder, Ben Shapiro, and you … you can get this great shirt and help a veteran-run t-shirt shop in Indiana grow its business while letting your leftist neighbors know exactly where you stand on pedophiles.
The KPL shirt is the PERFECT accessory for your next school board meeting. Get yours today!
These shirts are usually made to order. As such, Priority Shipping isn’t recommended. If you select Priority Shipping, it will ship from the printer Priority but will not be made faster. My supplier tends to do them in batches.
There’s been a lot of stats floating around about so called ‘assault’ weapons. A term only used seriously by the ignorant. Many of these stats highlight the lunacy of an ‘assault’ weapons ban, and the logic of such not being rooted in reality. For instance, the FBI saying you are more likely to be killed with a hammer than an ‘assault’ weapon.
FBI: More People Killed with Hammers, Clubs Each Year than Rifles According to the FBI annual crime statistics, the number of murders committed annually with hammers and clubs far outnumbers the number of murders committed with a rifle.
There’s still some other stats you need to know that further highlights the ignorance of the gun grabbers you are debating with on Twitter and Facebook.
I recently did a video on these stats (video at bottom of page), and it was a segment on my show (podcast here).
Here‘s how those stats break down. Get ready to have your mind blown with facts.
According to the FBI, in 2011, there were 7,923 non-justifiable gun homicides in the US.
Despite their overwhelming popularity, assault weapons like the rifle used by the Sandy Hook Elementary killer are very rarely used in crimes, according to a comprehensive Congressional Research Service report on guns and gun control legislation.
Citing a survey of 203,300 state and federal prisoners who were armed during the crime for which they were incarcerated, “fewer than 1 in 50, or less than 2 percent, used, carried, or possessed a semiautomatic assault weapon,” said the report.
That’s roughly 158 ‘assault’ weapon homicides a year.
Statistically, you have a 0.00005% of being killed with one of these weapons. That’s a 1 in over 2 million chance. The likelihood drops dramatically when we are talking about kids in schools, but I’ll save that for another time.
According to the National Safety Council, these are the things that you are more likely to die from than being shot by an ‘assault’ weapon:
Suicide
Falling
Being a pedestrian
Drowning
Riding a bicycle
Plane crash
Electrocution
Exposure to heat
Cataclysmic storm
Stung by bees, wasps, and hornets
Earthquake
Lightning
Fireworks discharge
Bitten by dog
I didn’t include the big stuff like heart disease, or motor vehicle accidents for obvious reasons.
If these stats don’t prove to your friends, neighbors, co-workers and family that this debate isn’t about safety … nothing will.
This is purely about political agenda, limiting the people’s rights, power, control, and yes … even tyranny.
