Divemedic runs the numbers.
A study published this week by the Kaiser Foundation says that 1 in 5 people in the US has a family member who has died after being shot. This is a survey pretending to be science. Let’s do the math. I will even be kind and use the Kaiser foundation’s numbers. (FYI: The Kaiser Foundation is a lefty anti gun pseudoscience think tank)
Averaging the data they publish for the past 21 years, they claim that the annual firearm death rate in the US was 10.75 per 100,000. That equates to 225.75 people per 100,000 over the past 21 years. Or in other words, one person in 445 has died a so-called “gun death” in the past 21 years. Even if you assume that each person killed is from a unique family, for 1 in 5 people to have had a firearm death in their family would mean family sizes of 89 people. The math doesn’t stop there.
The average family size in the US has remained stable at 3.1 people. The statistic is impossible, even if you count grandparents, siblings, cousins, and more. The entire study is pseudoscientific garbage.
With these hoplophobic fascists, you just gotta take that as read from the very beginning. I say again: stop yammering about it and just come and take them already, shitlibs. Let’s all see how that works out for ya in the end.

It’s terrible that so many educated people really believe this BS – right!
What about all the millions that ran to get their next COVID booster!
They lie about everything, and they always lie.
It’s even simpler to debunk than that.
If you ask Google, they answer, relying mostly on statista.com, that there are 84 million families, and 130M households, in the U.S. at present.
That would require a body stack of 16.8M dead people from guns.
Grant that every family has 4 related family groups.
So that still requires 4.2M gun deaths.
Granting that all firearms deaths from all causes (suicides, homicides, and accidents) are 30,000/year/forever (which they obviously haven’t been) it would take 140 years(!!!) to rack up a dead body count that high.
They’d have to be counting relatives from 4 generations ago killed settling the frontier, from 5 generations ago shot in the Civil War, and from 8 generations ago shot in the Revolutionary War, to get to that number.
And they’d have to be counting relatives from 140 other countries killed in a century of warfare Somewhere Else, and removed from modern descendants by similarly long multi-generational spans, to be within astronomical units (the mean distance between the Sun and Earth: 93,000,000 miles) of the number they’d need.
Color me shocked: They’re pulling numbers wildly from out of their own ass, which is why that number is full of shit.
Another statistic lie.
Many of the people who have had a family member shot have had multiple family members shot.
That’s because inner city black families have 100x the amount of family members shot than the average.
They recently asked people how many unarmed black people were killed by police per year.
The actual number ranges between 10-20.
Most leftists (and most people IIRC) answered between 1000-10,000.
Why pretend to e surprised? This is merely the “Jew math,” as they yearn for the “good old days” of their Messiahs – Lenin and Stalin!
Wait! Is “Jew Math” different than Catholic math? The kind pelosi and biden use?
“Jew math” says 2 + 2 is whatever you want it to be!
It is the same then.
Maybe they meant to say 1 in 5 amish families.
