During the 503 days between ...

Res Ipsa Loquitor

T-Bone Mann sent me this.  I've seen it before, but this time I decided to fact check it.

"In the 503 days between Trayvon dying, and today’s verdict, 11,106 African-Americans have been murdered by other African -Americans."*

  • "The United States is 3rd in murders throughout the world?
Not even close The U.S. may have the highest level of gun ownership in the world, but its rate of gun homicides is only about three per 100,000 and are .concentrated in major urban areas. And those cities are typically Democratic strongholds with the most stringent gun control laws in the nation. e.g. Chicago, Detroit, D.C., Baltimore, New Orleans blah blah blah.
  • "But it would be absurd to draw any conclusions from this, wouldn't it?"
Only if you're a Liberal Media Complex publication, of which more after I've had just the teeniest bit of red whiskey and my Prozac.  Working title - "Absurdem Est."


* It appears that Blacks may be making an earnest effort to lower the high percentage of murders of Blacks by Blacks by killing more Whites.  Data lags here.

Funny how the murder rate in sub-Saharan Africa mirrors the murder rates in our big cities.

Just a coincidence, I'm sure.
