Al Sharpton bemoaned the inability to secure more gun control and claimed there would be no mass killings without 'mass instruments.'
“semiautomatic handguns are far more common in mass killings than guns that are typically characterized as assault weapons, such as the AR-15.”show handguns are used in “mass killings” almost twice as much as “long guns,” the latter being a category which includes shotguns, rifles of every kind, etc.
During the MSNBC segment, Sharpton pointed to the August 26, 2023, Jacksonville, Florida, shooting in which a man with an AR-15 killed three people at a Dollar General store. He did not mention the April 16, 2007, Virginia Tech shooting, in which an attacker with two handguns killed 32 people.the November 21, 2021, incident in which Darrell Brooks Jr. drove over people during a Milwaukee parade, killing six.
He left out the July 14, 2016, attack in Nice, France, in which a terrorist used a truck to kill 86 people and failed to mention the September 11, 2001, attacks, in which airplanes were weaponized to kill nearly 3,000 people.AWR Hawkins is an award-winning Second Amendment columnist for Breitbart News and the writer/curator of
