Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem says North Dakota has had only two murders so far this year. He says that's the lowest yearly number for the state in at least 30 years.That story was posted Dec. 29. As far as I know there were no additional homicides through the end of the year.
Stenehjem says North Dakota averages about 11 homicides annually for the past several years, after a high of 22 in 1993. 16 were reported last year.
Both homicide victims in North Dakota this year were stabbed to death.
Of course, with no gun murders there must not be any guns in North Dakota. After all, it's the presence of guns that create violence, or so the anti-gun people tell us.
Au contraire (a little French lingo). There are lots of guns in North Dakota and in fact that state is pretty open to gun ownership. They just don't have people who like to point and fire them at each other.
That's the only kind of gun control that really works.
