A University of South Carolina student was shot and killed as he apparently tried to enter the wrong home on his off-campus street early on Saturday, police said.
Nicholas Anthony Donofrio, 20, of Connecticut, was dead by the time police responded to reports of a home burglary and shooting, according to a Columbia Police Department news release. Officers found his body on a front porch around 2 a.m., and Donofrio had a gunshot wound to his upper body, the release said.
If permissive gun laws made places safer, America would be the safest country in the world by a large margin.
Instead, it’s crime rate is roughly the same as any other wealthy country, just with a layer of extreme gun violence on top.
We’ve waited 20 years for pro-gun bullshit to come true and it hasn’t made an inch of progress. People are being murdered the the street and authoritarians have never had more political power.
Crime isn’t the same across all of America.
The area I live in is very safe. Everywhere I’ve lived has been fairly safe.
The solution is more police in the crime ridden areas to bring them the safety they deserve.
Yes we’ve seen your awkward talking point 50 times already. You moved to a “red city” and theres no crime and the police regularly ask if you’re in need of fellating and we’ll just have to take your word for it because you’ve never said it’s name.
I’m sure it’s very very convincing to people who have never looked at wealth, education and healthcare rankings ordered by how right wing a place is.
I never said no crime. I said lower crime.
Safer areas tend to more affluent. Crime doesn’t pay.
Trouble with figurative speech huh? Nevermind, it’s only social media – I’m sure you haven’t built political opinions on things you didn’t understand but assumed you did.
I understand firearms and crime well.
It’s not hard to grasp a solid police force reduces crime. Ifs always a factor I look at when I move to area. Do they have a well funded police department.
Affluent areas are willing to spend the money to have well funded department. Why I always live in affluent areas.
So unlike you I make decisions on facts and not emotions. I make informed decisions about where I work and where I live on facts.
We need to imprison more people to help lower the crime rate like Biden pushed for in the 90’s. It was very effective in lowering crime.
We get it, you’re a cop. You don’t have to keep writing romance novels about yourself.
