Probably grabbing his stats from the Violence Policy Center.

They count a suicide by a permit holder as a "killing." They also lump in cases still under investigation or working through the courts.

Just figure the MSM would be quick to pounce on 100 people a year getting killed by the CC'ers

If by "data" you mean verifiable facts, vetted and neutrally biased, that would be an empty set.

On the other hand, he may have asked Danny boy Webster to cobble up whatever numbers he needed.
Yeah, how's that "balance" working out for Baltimore?

About 7 people per month, across the entire US... Not statically significant.

The common sense data that Bloomberg's hirelings made up.
Seems to me more people die from misdiagnosed indigestion than from that.

"Common Sense" was a pamphlet written by Thomas Paine in 1776, advocating the American colonies' independence from Great Britain.
"...Originally published anonymously, “Common Sense” advocated independence for the American colonies from Britain and is considered one of the most influential pamphlets in American history. Credited with uniting average citizens and political leaders behind the idea of independence, “Common Sense” played a remarkable role in transforming a colonial squabble into the American Revolution.
At the time Paine wrote “Common Sense,” most colonists considered themselves to be aggrieved Britons. Paine fundamentally changed the tenor of colonists’ argument with the crown when he wrote the following: “Europe, and not England, is the parent country of America. This new world hath been the asylum for the persecuted lovers of civil and religious liberty from every part of Europe. Hither they have fled, not from the tender embraces of the mother, but from the cruelty of the monster; and it is so far true of England, that the same tyranny which drove the first emigrants from home, pursues their descendants still....” https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/thomas-paine-publishes-common-sense
What would Thomas Paine say in response to Frosh's misplaced use of the Leftist's code phrase and dog whistle, "Common Sense" and gun control?
How about this:
Thomas Paine Quotes About Guns
"Arms discourage and keep the invader and plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property... Horrid mischief would ensue were the law-abiding deprived of the use of them." - Thomas Paine
and
"The balance of power is the scale of peace. The same balance would be preserved were all the world not destitute of arms, for all would be alike; but since some will not, others dare not lay them aside ... Horrid mischief would ensue were one half the world deprived of the use of them ... the weak will become prey to the strong." - Thomas Paine

In 10 years, 17 police officers were shot and killed by CCW people, if his numbers are to be believed. How many have been shot and killed by repeat violent offenders who are not allowed to legally possess a gun but do and have their charges dropped whenever they are caught with one?
To go on a side tangent, how many people were killed during the same period by police officers using their guns in a criminal manner? I am not necessarily talking about a line-of-duty shooting but rather say, a murder-suicide committed by a police officer. I am in no way attempting to disparage the office of police officer, but rather pointing out that even those groups who have had all sorts of special training in the use of firearms will sometimes have members who break the law.

That idiot needs to open his eyes and simply look around. All of the things he’s so worried about DO NOT HAPPEN when regular folks carry concealed. If he’d get out of his warm, fuzzy, progressive cocoon and go to neighboring WV, he could see. But nooooo, better to keep the blinders on.
Ignorance is one thing but when someone just doubles down in the face of evidence to the contrary, they are either stupid or just up to no good.

Freddy Gray's death is the cause of Baltimore's "gun violence"? Did I hear him correctly?
Now he tells us.
1. If Baltimore is a bad test case for the efficacy of gun control laws, then it's a bad test case for the need for gun laws, too.
2. If Baltimore is different from other places, its laws should be different, too.
3. Gun control laws come in hundreds of sizes, shapes, and forms. They have two things in common: First, they don't work. Second, they are racist. Maybe that also goes to #1.
