Reference :- Tucker Carlson suggested that knives and fists kill more people in the USA than firearms .
Dear Tucker ,
Good on you for speaking out against those fools who want to regulate firearms . However , in your enthusiasm , you seem to have made a slight error with your reporting on the use of firearms to kill folk . Knowing that you are always meticulous with the accuracy of your reports , we offer the following data which will give you the opportunity to broadcast a speedy correction .
Here are the statistics on murder weapons used in the USA in 2020 .
Handguns .........................8029
Rifles ................................455
Shotguns ............................203
Other types of guns.............113
Other types of firearms......4,863
This totals 13, 663 firearm murders.
Knives were used in 1,739 murders .
Fists were used in 662 murders .
Unfortunately we were unable to determine how many of the citizens stabbed or beaten to death were innocent school children .
With statistics like that , who would be brave enough to walk the streets unarmed ?
There is no need to thank us , ensuring that your reputation for ethical journalism remains untarnished is thanks enough .
Your comrade , Ken
