I thought guns caused murder.

Charges have been increased from second- to first degree-murder for Scottye Miller, who is accused in the fatal stabbing of his ex-girlfriend, Tricia Patricelli, Oct. 30 in Auburn….During the subsequent interview, according to the police statement, Miller told detectives that he had been involved in a romantic, dating relationship with Patricelli for about four years and that the two had previously lived together. At first, he denied stabbing Patricelli, though he admitted to having sent her numerous texts threatening to beat and kill her. He claimed he had found her dead, but according to the police statement finally admitted that he had gone to Patricelli’s apartment and argued with her. According to the police statement, Miller told detectives that he had “snapped”, put on a pair of gloves, armed himself with two knives and stabbed her to death in her bathroom.

The King County Medical Examiner estimated that Patricelli had been stabbed at least 22 times in her neck, face, torso and back.

We constantly hear from the anti-freedom crowd that we need to ban guns to stop crime. Its all about the “Gun Death”…but if “Gun Death” is paramount, how did this guy commit such a brutal murder without a gun?

It takes a special breed of monster to do this:

Police in north Georgia say an infant was stabbed to death at an Athens house, hours after being born.

Hey, but it was a knife, not a gun! Nothing to worry about!

Aren’t you impressed with the people who only focus on the “Gun Deaths”?

Its almost like its the person, not the tool:

An Auburn father accused of breaking his 2 ½-month-old daughter’s skull is behind bars and facing a child abuse charge.

King County prosecutors contend Robert Stephen Meador choked and threw the infant girl on Oct. 19 after the girl began crying. Prosecutors note the girl nearly died in the attack – she was resuscitated by her step-grandfather after sustaining a fractured skull, a bleeding brain and injuries to her body.

Bare hands! No weapons, and the target of his crime was an infant! He also has a conviction for killing a cat with his bare hands as well.

Who’s dangerous? Me with my safe full of guns, and my pistol at my side, or this guy with nothing but what he was born with? If you use the metric “Gun Death”, the answer would be me…or you!

A violent, but unarmed criminal is nothing to be concerned about! Only “Gun Death” counts!

Just like “Gun Free Zones” save lives, the laws against drunk driving save just as many!

The woman charged in a downtown Minneapolis hit-and-run crash that killed Augsburg College student Austin Conley told police she thought a rock smashed her windshield.

Teisha Randle, 20, of St. Paul is charged with two counts of criminal vehicular homicide in what witnesses described as a high-speed crash in the Warehouse District early Sunday morning.

According to police dispatch records, the 911 caller kept saying, “The car was going 90 and hit this guy. I think he’s dead.”

Of course those who use “Gun Death” as a metric could care less about this story. I mean no guns were used, so what’s the big deal?
