You read that right. I’ve been working on a series of comparisons to other means of unnatural death to give some perspective to the number of “assault weapons” deaths, and the commander-in-chief eliminated, via drone strikes, more people in 2011 than were killed by so-called assault weapons in these here United States. According to data compiled by the New America Foundation, President Obama ordered drone strikes that offed at least 367 people in 2011, all without judicial oversight. And according to Dianne Feinstein, there are about 48 deaths from “assault rifles” every year in the United States. Those deaths, by the way, appear to include police usage of these firearms to eliminate criminals, as well as civilian use to defend the lives of innocent people. So, in other words, both metrics include the defense of innocent life by killing criminals / combatants. After all, if we can save just one life . . .
