Tennessee Gun Control Group Spreads Bad Data to Push Anti-gun Agenda
In mid-September, Tennessee gun control group Safe Tennessee Project trumpeted a disturbing new statistic gleaned from the Centers for Disease Control’s Web-based Injury Statistics Query and Reporting System (WISQARS) in order to bolster their anti-gun agenda. The group contended that in 2014, 105 Tennesseans were killed in unintentional shootings, a more than five-fold increase from 2013. As expected, the press dutifully parroted the group’s claims. However, the incredible statistic touted by Safe Tennessee Project turned out to be just that, not credible. Following a review of their data, the Tennessee Department of Health, who provided the unintentional shooting data to the CDC, determined that the 105 figure was inaccurate and that the correct number of unintentional shooting deaths in Tennessee in 2014 was five.

Liberals think they are entitled to their own opinions and their own facts

Well Liberals are entitled to their own opinions. But they tend to make up facts, if it fits their political narrative. Fear of inanimate objects is a Mental Illness, plain and simple. Liberals are about control, they want to force others to conform to their views. They have Communist and Socialist tendencies. Of course, in order to rob the productive, they understand it is far easier if they are not armed. Hitler, Stalin and Mao taught them that.
