A big one too:

Fears were rising today for the crew of a South Korean trawler which sank in the Bering Sea, off the east coast of Russia.

More than 50 men were reported missing in appalling conditions with high seas and strong winds.

Seven people were rescued from the 1,753-tonne Oryong 501 – including a Russian inspector on board the ship when it got into difficulty.

That sucks, but it’s part of the job, and it isn’t “Gun Death” so why should anybody care?

Maybe we should ban them:

Man, 32, ‘strangled his dancer girlfriend, 23, to death on Thanksgiving after they got into a ‘heated’ argument’

As the “Gun Death” types like to say, having hands make it too easy for a simple argument to turn deadly!

Ban hands! If it saves just one life!

This is a sad one:

Father frantically calls and texts his son about nearby car crash only to have trooper answer and tell him the teen is dead

–**Departed**, 18, was killed last Monday in a car crash in North Carolina

–**Departed**, 15, also died in the crash and her brother **REDACTED**, 17, remains in hospital with serious injuries

-Driver **REDACTED**, 16, suffered only minor injuries and has been charged with two counts of misdemeanor death and reckless driving

Brand new driver behind the wheel, driving recklessly, two are now dead, and one was seriously injured.

Happens all the time, and despite what the propaganda says, it happens MUCH more often than “Gun Death”, but “Progressives” want to get the kids out of the house, so they just go after guns.

A Good reason to carry a gun!

Two juveniles are in custody Sunday, suspected in the death of a man beaten with hammers on a St. Louis street.

…He was unconscious by the time officers arrived. Begic was taken to an area hospital, where he was pronounced dead, police said.

“Investigation revealed the victim was traveling in his vehicle when several juveniles approached his vehicle on foot and began damaging it.

“The victim exited his vehicle and the juveniles began yelling at the victim and striking him with hammers. After the assault, the juveniles fled the scene on foot,” read an incident report.

If you are inside a car you are safer than outside the car. If people are hitting your property with hammers for no reason, they probably aren’t too worried about having a reason to hit YOU. If you are outnumbered and can escape (like by hitting the gas pedal) it’s generally the best idea, and call the police from safety.

And having a gun might have saved this man’s life…but it might have caused “Gun Death”

Not always about guns:

A Canton man has been charged in the death of his 2-month-old son.

It happened during a domestic dispute at a house on 10th Street Northwest in Canton early Tuesday morning. Police said the baby was hit in the head with a ceramic coffee mug while his mother and father were fighting.

The “Gun Death” Crowd keeps crowing about the solution to domestic violence is to ban guns. I think it more has to do with the people, not the tools:

The father, 34-year-old **REDACTED**, was arrested and charged with murder, child endangering and domestic violence. He was already wanted for failure to appear at his arraignment for a theft case.

I’m sure this was his only criminal charge!
