Ann Coulter is insisting that guns dont kill people, non-white people kill people.
The conservative columnist on Monday told Fox News host Sean Hannity that the country had a demographic problem because white populations in the U.S. and Belgium had the same low murder rate.
As you know, I just got back from England, Coulter explained. On the gun crimes, we keep hearing how low they are in Europe and, Oh, theyre so low and they have no guns. If you compare white populations, we have the same murder rate as Belgium.
So, perhaps, its not a gun problem, it is a demographic problem, which liberals are the one are pushing, pushing, pushing, Lets add more African-American mass murderer Colin Fergusons and more whoever the Muslim guy was who shot up Fort Hood. Why are they coming in to begin with?

This is par for the course for Ann. When she has a new book to sell, she makes her most outrageous statements so she'll be sure to be in the spotlight. She doesn't care whether she's getting good attention or bad as long as she's getting attention.

(26,060 posts)she will go away. The right now hates her because she doesn't hate gays and she supported Christie so now she's just saying outrageous stuff to gin up attention for her next book. If the left would just ignore her, then nobody will give a shit was she says.

Populations with large racial diversity do indeed tend to have higher homicide rates. Now obviously this is not because races intrinsically differ as regards homicidal inclination, but crime is indeed likely to rise when you have an oppressed underclass easily ghetto-ized by skin color kept without access to the same opportunities as the majority. With increased crime comes increased criminal violence and hence gun deaths by and of course amongst the minority population to a greater degree than the majority. Only a fool cannot see and understand crime stats by race. Only a racist fool cannot see that race itself is not the issue, but society's treatment of its underclass exacerbated against the minority underclass. This doesn't change the data, but it should caution against both facile oversimplification and intentional unacceptance of the facts.
