The top four mass murders in this country did not involve guns.
4) On May 18, 1927 in Bath, Michigan… 45 people were killed in an elementary school using dynamite, firebombs, and a club.
3) March 25, 1990 in the Bronx, New York… 87 people were killed when the Happy Land Social Club was intentionally burned to the ground.
2) On April 19, 1995 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma… 168 people were killed by what was essentially a truck full of poop.
1) On September 11, 2001 in multiple locations… 2,996 people were killed using 12 box cutters.
We continue to hear outcries for the banning of guns in the United States, yet most people do not push for a ban on clubs, matches, poop, or box cutters. In order to address mass murders in the United States, you must address the murderers themselves and not the methods.
