SIXTH HOMICIDE IN ANNAPOLIS THIS YEAR

.....occurred on Marcs Court in Bay Ridge Gardens.....maybe we should, like, uhhmmm, maybe we should have a meeting or something...pass a resolution....and while the killings go on, how much longer will it take before a majority of us begin to understand that IT IS GUNS THAT KILL PEOPLE!!!!! (Perhaps a majority do, but the NRA is too powerful???) How often are murders committed with sticks, knives or fists? Sure, they happen, but one person with one gun, especially the military style rifles that are so readily available, can kill easily from a distance.

all it takes is a finger and a flick
even a handgun can do the trick!
22, 36, 45 or 9 mm....Take your pick!

CP predicts the news about this will settle down. Nope, murders in Annapolis make the news one day and are forgotten the next....unless it happens in an open, public place or the victim is white or if white residents witnessed it.

If, as Mayor Moyer continues to contend (mistakenly I might add...), the national norm is onepolice officer per thousand residents, we should ask her and the Police Chief, what is the national murder rate per one thousand residents, because right now, we have just under .20 murders per thousand residents.

guns don't kill without people. cars, cigarettes, pools (drowning), allergic reactions to drugs--all of these kill people too. should the government ban these things as well? it's the people we should be worried about. keep up the good work, see you tomorrow.

Nobody's getting out of here alive....BUT, of all the homicides in our country, how many are committed with guns? How many are stopped because of guns? As for worrying about people who wish me harm, I worry about them a lot more if they have a gun than if they only have a knife, a stick or their fists.
