David Hogg fact-HAMMERED for trying to spin gun death numbers to claim 'gun epidemic' getting WORSE

Oh look, David Hogg is doing his gun-grabbing thing. And he’s using numbers!

Or should we say he’s SPINNING numbers?

In 2021 there were nearly 49,000 gun deaths. That’s almost 10,000 more than there were in 2018. This epidemic is not going away. It’s getting worse.

Wonder why David went so far back with his gun death numbers. Kidding, we know why.

If you Google this you see gun deaths in 2020 were 46k … it doesn’t seem like such a huge leap when you see it from year-to-year. Not to mention he fails to break out what these deaths look like, how many were suicides, and how many were tied to gang violence.

That gun-grabbers are consistently disingenuous in their arguments is just one of the reasons they fail so much and so often.

Looking at it like that, the number hardly budged at all.

Was David trying to debunk his own claim? Heh.

These numbers are a lie. Try being honest for once

This kid, sorry, young man, wouldn’t know honesty if it fell out of the sky, landed on his face, and started to wiggle.

David once again lumping all gun deaths in a singular stat. Shocker. You’re losing David, and you know it.

Back out the suicides and what's the number down to? Addressing problems not the gun is how you reduce the mortalities, not by trampling on the rights of 335,849,610 other Americans.

Violent crime during YOUR life is down over 20%.

Violent crime during my life is down well over 50%.

So unless all of these violent crimes are being committed with kitchen knives, you're wrong.

But alas, you're not a fan of the actual truth. Just talking points. pic.twitter.com/KEmrS6oPcz

Wow, when you look at it like THAT?

Ukraine doesn’t count

HAAAAA … we see what he did there.

More than half of them were classified as suicides. Gun regulation does little to stop that, especially regulation of the AR15 (the black scary gun). Don't really remember a time when someone committed suicide with an AR15, it's extremely rare. Explain Chi, NY, LA, etc.

According to the CDC in 2022, 72,745 people died from fentanyl. It is a fact that gun crimes follow drug crimes. How many of the gun deaths resulted from criminal activity?

Wouldn’t it be amazing if more people cared about the fentanyl coming across our open southern border? But GUNS!
