New Jersey “Senator” Cory Booker is being universally mocked after claiming he has seen more Americans die from domestic violence than all of our wars combined.
Senator Cory Booker was questioned by viewers after claiming to have witnessed more deaths from gun violence in his lifetime than “all of our wars combined.”
“We have more people in America in my short lifetime that have died due to gun violence than in every single one of our wars — from the Civil War and the Revolutionary War to the wars in the Middle East combined,” the New Jersey senator asserted.
“I’m 53 years old, and I’ve seen more Americans die from domestic gun violence than from all of our wars combined,” he wrote. “Let that sink in.”
Look, I understand New Jersey is a garbage state chock full of low-information voters, but how has Booker still in the Senate? He is literally dumber than AOC, but he claims to be wicked smaht. But hey, don’t trust me, take a look at the statistics.
According to Statista, the number of American war dead from just the Civil War, WWII, WWI, Korea, and Vietnam add up to 1,236,640.
According to UC Davis, in 2019, there were 14,861 firearm homicides in the U.S. At that rate, Booker would need to be 83 years old to see the same number of firearm homicides as the above war dead. But again, total homicides include things like gang or drug violence, it’s not all “crimes of passion” or what most people typically think of when they think of murder.
To give you an idea how stupid this jackass is, The Washington Post fact-checked b.s and even they couldn’t claim it was true. Good grief, New Jersey, remove this idiot and vote for someone who isn’t borderline retarded.
If it weren’t for Fetterman, this would certainly be true, but that guy is pretty braindead. I find it interesting that the Democrats in general are braindead. Cory Booker must be related to Hank Johnson. This stupidity must be why the few seriously sly and devious demoncrats can control the rest of them so well. Normal people wouldn’t have gone from socially concious left wingers to full on commies without lots of help and their own stupidity.

I think it’s hilarious that this jackass didn’t even bother to check his facts before spouting off. It would have taken three minutes to find out the truth, but the left doesn’t believe in truth.

Have you guys never heard of the Clinton “Is-is”? He literally witnessed more gun deaths in his lifetime, than all the wars combined, because he personally witnessed NO deaths in all the wars combined. This chickenhawk was tucked safely in his bed when those happened!

BTW, that doesn’t mean he still isn’t the dumbest (Fetterman excluded).

He’s definitely top three all-time. I can assure you I have seen more deaths and killing that that jagoff. By a country mile.

I think Patty Murray has Cory beat, and for added stupidity, the Democrats have appointed her President Pro Tem of the Senate, and 3rd in line for the Presidency. Senile Senator Feinstein had the decency to pass up on the largely ceremonial position.
Sometimes I think America is cos-playing the last days of the Soviet Union, when it declined in the post Brezhnev senile gerontocracy. At least those days I do not think we are in some post Weimar Germany analog.

Murray is pretty stupid. Probably not worse than Booker, but a close second.

But if anyone shows him abortion statistics/counts (especially amongst the African Americans), he’d shove his fingers in his ears as far as they’d go & start singing LA-LA-LA-LA-LA at the top of his miserable lungs.

KurtP – I doubt Booker ever saw Spartacus, let alone be able to spell it.
MelP – Funny how all Democrats are in love with abortion, while most abortions are African-American babies.

Booker shouted that during the Kavenaugh lynching IIRR.
I know he yelled it at some hearing.

I think you’re right. It was during the hearings, and I think it was specifically Kavanaugh. All that fighting, and Kavanaugh turned out to be a scared wuss of a Justice.

Another point that’s worth being made is that a good percentage of the “domestic” killings were of people who deliberately placed themselves in harm’s way for their own personal gain, whereas American military personnel place themselves there for their fellow Americans.
A death resulting from a drug deal gone bad being compared to death on the field of honor is a moral abomination.

It doesn’t help that half of America has lost their damned minds. Tonight we had a domestic arrest where the man pointed a gun at her and took her money. She was brought to the division and left in five minutes, never to return. Next time, the man may shoot her.
