2169 - Guns

Here's a fun interactive for you. Slate and the Twitter feed @GunDeaths have been trying to collect all the gun deaths in the United States since Newtown. As of 2/15 they are up to 1862. Go to the LINK and there will be an interactive map of the US. Make the map bigger to see your local area. I looked at St. Louis and I think they have missed a few.

What does a grape say when it's stepped on? Nothing, it just lets out a little wine.

Guns don't kill people ... people kill people! Haven't you figured that out yet? Of course, they use guns to do it, but that's beside the point. I'm going out today to buy a 155mm howitzer for home defense.

Bilbo - Looks like I'm going to have to one up you and get a 156mm howitzer.

Angel - Just helping you keep track of the stuff that could kill you.

Kristen - Ya.

This is a good map to use when decided where to build my heavily fortified compound.

Jay - It looks like AR is not going to be a good choice.
