Boston bomb suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev included on list of victims of gun violence at NH rally - The Washington Post

"The group says his name shouldn't have been listed." Well Duh!

Those folks up in New Hampshire are lucky the same mindless dolts who are running the show today weren't in charge a couple of hundred years ago or they might still be flying the Union Jack over their state capitol.

If this guy is a victim of "gun violence, then every perp shot by a LEO is also a victim of gun violence. Kind of makes you look sideways at their statistics.

The gun violence in the USA has been declining for the past 40 years and is lower today than in 1993. In that year there were 1,529,742 victims of firearms violence and in 2011 there were 467,321. The firearms crime rate went from 7.3 to 1.8 in that time period.

They don't want the truth to get in their way.

One of the comments after the article I read (HuffPo, I believe) stated that many of the names were of thugs killed in "good" police shootings or by legally armed homeowners during home invasions, etc.

The anti-gun fruitcakes' staggering lack of intelligence is only exceeded by their seemingly limitless stupidity.

The point is, it is not a staggering lack of intelligence, it is a deliberate mishandling of statistics. If they use the true statistics, well then it looks like the gun situation isn't so bad after all and things like Sandy Hook, The Colorado shooter, and the Tucson shooter are anomalies. At least it shows that giving guns to nutcases may not be a good idea.

Don't forget that there are mayors on that list that never signed up. I can't remember if it was the mayor of Pensacola or Panama City that didn't respond with a negative asking him to join so they added him to the list. He didn't know about it until his constituents started challenging him on it.

When I was in College centuries ago--two who were classmates of mine were Nieces of Ahumada--who was from Rio Grande City on the border with Mexico--and is or then was==a major hub of activity for drug smuggling into Texas. Ahumada was implicated but apparently never charged. This was circa early 1990s.

My thought exactly. They forgot to sanitize their list to remove any "victims" the general public might remember as not quite victims...

Old Tamerlan was the victim of the stolen Mercedes SUV driven by his brother. It rolled over Tamerlan's head as the brother was running from the police. Around here, he's affectionately known as "Speedbump."

In many areas, yes.

Think Marion Barry of Washington, DC.

At a MAIG reading in Concord, NH Tuesday, Christopher Dorner's name was read, along with at least 10 others who were suspected of murder and killed by police.
