An idiot Republican said after the inaugural that more people are killed by bats and hammers than guns - NOT TRUE! This same fellow also believes that the world is 9000 years old.

Guns are, undeniably, the American murderer’s weapon of choice. The

number murdered by every other means combined, including fists, swords, poison, explosives, arson, and strangulation.
