Rebuttal: Vox's 'Gun Control' Propaganda Video Debunked.

March 17, 2016

Facts are overrated when you have passion, a microphone and a camera. Throw in an internet channel, viola, you're in it to win it, friends. Which is precisely the problem going on at Vox, who released this video claiming LOTZ OF GUNZ SHOOTINGS OMG. Problem is there are too many problems with their entire premise, argument and conclusion. Why? Because Vox has an agenda to push, and as I'll prove, they will willingly and proactively manipulate data to do it.

In other words, when you step back to look at the larger picture, rather than the narrow view which provides only the results you want to see, you get truth. Violent crime has decreased. A large number of gun related incidents and deaths are related to gangs (in gun free zones), perpetrated by criminals who didn't go through legal channels to get guns. That's why they're criminals, yo. They break laws.

Misrepresenting numbers, massaging "facts," are tactics used by leftists daily. Misrepresentation is the secret ingredient in their half-caf soy latte. Leftists always have a pre-determined outcome in mind. In Vox's case (like all leftists), TAINT GUN OWNERSHIP. Make gun owners look like out of control whack jobs with no hearts.

Thankfully we also have a microphone, a camera and an internet channel. Difference is we have facts.
