Where is the outrage over U.S. citizens being murdered across our country. The media does not report a national total of these 'casualties' either.
We are in a 'war' here at home and you may be surprised to learn that the number killed here far exceeds the number of our military killed in Iraq. In 2006 alone there were 20,917 people murdered in the U.S.A.

Thank you Jeb!!!!!!!
I am glad to see that I am not the only one who is getting fed up with the sensationalism over the war...

daniel, ...not sure if that was the point Jeb was trying to make. Yep, Jeb we are a violent society and it's being placed on the back burner...if it's even on the stove???????

We are still free...but we are not safe...regularly hear of home invasions, carjacking and all kinds of violence.
An 80 year old veteran was mugged, by a 20-22 yr.old man, in the VA hospital in Memphis one day last week. The vet fought, but still lost his billfold.
As to the 'war'in Iraq, I have mixed feelings but I do think that we should, since we are there, finish it.
As for the news media...don't get me going...I'll say this, I believe we would have gotten Ben Ladin early on, were it not for the media.

i think i said basicly the same sort of thing in the past

but hey no one pays me no mind anyway

cause

hey what do i know

Hmmmm get rid of the guns, drugs, poverty, racism.....then maybe you will win this war!!

its never going to happen becouse people dont give a ~S-IT about anything but themselves anymore.

hello mister postive!!!!

yep.... im back...

About 3/4 of the victims were killed with guns, I guess that's the easiest way. People were killing people long before we had guns...so lets see, that leaves drugs, poverty and racism.
Can't get rid of drugs, too much money there. Jesus said we'll always have poverty. Racism, what would the liberal politicians do with out the 'race card'???

Guns never did kill anyone !!A gun can not do any thing. People kill people, not guns. Knives do not kill any one , People kill people. If they do not have guns or knives , people will kill people with electromagnetic pulse weapons, fists, sticks, poison your food, poison medicine, poison vaccines , by doctor, etc. I wish people would quit dreaming up things that are false, like a gun getting up and go kill some one. never happened, People kill people. Remember, If you hate your Brother ,you are a murderer, in your heart,even though you did not use a knife ,or gun against him. Now, if you get rid of hatred for your brother,there will be no more murder. the guns and knives will not get up and kill any one EVER !!!EVER !!! REMEMBER guns do not kill, People Do, And once in a while maybe a mad bull might. Hey, I am not trying to pick on any one, you are all my brothers and sisters and I do not hate you.(smiles) We are all in this thing together we need to figure out how to solve our problems,by working together and not be pulling in opposite directions. It is not the guns, It is the wrong people (murderers ) ( warmongers ) who are leading this country: AMERICA (land of heaven) down to ruin, against our brothers, the Arabs. It looks to me like our leaders are trying to rule the world and steal all the oil and whatever else they can get their hands on, by using our kids. It is our kids killing Arabs, not guns, remember guns can not do any things , But our kids can !!! Think it OVER !! I have changed my mind many times in my life and probably will again, but for mow, this is how, I see it.

------------------------------------------

well if ya legalize the drugs

and let those that may legally own a gun open carry (which is
a right given by the constitution)

then maybe the racism would be reduced (at least in public)

but the poverty issue may get a little worse cause the
ability to sell illegal drugs will be very impeded by
the legalization

but hey what do i know

....decrimininalize drugs?...always thought we'd be safer on highways with potheads rather than drunks...
...carry guns?...yes..definitely..its our right...(and I dont own one)

poverty is curable with the demise of the federal reserve system....

people kill with guns...and other weapons but the USA and the gun laws..what gun laws?? lol you can buy one at Walmart!!!!

drugs....I wasnt talking about pot....I was talking about crack, crystal meth...Ive seen people do things that would make your toes curl for that stuff...

poverty....the very rich and the very poor...someone always wants that extra bit.....not many people kill for just something to do compared to killing for drugs.

Racism....there will always be someone who doesnt like someone else for their colour etc....
