“Our homicide rates are so much larger than other industrialized countries, by like a mile,” said President Obama during a speech at Benedict College in South Carolina last week. “Most of that is attributable to the easy, ready availability of firearms, particularly handguns.”
But in fact, the United States of America, with more guns per person than any nation on Earth ranks 111th — that’s one hundred eleventh — in terms of per capital intentional homicide rates.
Meanwhile on Fox News’ “America’s Newsroom,” former Obama campaigner Marjorie Clifton claimed that M855 ammunition “has been used in every mass shooting we’ve had in the country over past years.”
Also a blatant lie. But that’s what they do.
