I'm guessing the inner cities are not "Trump Country" and that's where most
of the "gun-toting" and killing thugs reside. But carry on, don't let

That may have changed, of course. Some cities, such as St. Louis, do have a lot

Some cities... like St. Louis? How about Chicago, New Orleans, New York,
Baltimore, Los Angeles, Portland, Atlanta? Every week in Chicago death toll
from thug violence results in multiple deaths.

When they gather these "gun violence" statistics, they include suicide and
accidental shooting deaths. Not quite the same thing as thugs killing each
other, or innocent bystanders or victims. 

By the way, figures don't lie, but liars figure.
