What she doesn’t mention is that Arkansas is the 8th deadliest state in the nation for gun violence per capita. California and New York are 46th and 48th.

Further putting things in perspective, pools are the most deadly to children 12 and under. We should be talking about gun and pool bans if we want to save lives. Pool bans are easier to enact because swimming is not an enumerated right enshrined in the Constitution.
Nice flex and misdirection there. I can't count the number of times I've been threatened by a concealed pool pulled out of somebody's pocket in the most minor of disputes
What you leave out is there are regulations for pools and pool ownership. You can go to pool safety classes as well. Plus, your homeowners insurance increases if you have a pool.
Just like guns, pools are regulated on a state level and rules vary by state. It seems like you are insinuating there are no gun regulations or safety classes?
Neither is gun ownership. The 2nd amendment relates to a system of militia service that hasn't existed since the 19th century. Private gun ownership has always been subject to local, state, and Federal laws. The 2nd is irrelevant, obsolete, and ready for revocation.
Correct, and as we know from history, in colonial times “militia” meant all able bodied men in the colonies. This was further enshrined by the Militia Act of 1903, where one of the classes of the term “militia" describes all able-bodied men of at least 17. Obviously today we recognize women as well.
Whatever point you’re trolling with about guns has nothing to do with the fact that Ms. Sanders is the chief executive of a state that leads the nation in gun violence, which doesn’t make Arkansas a very desirable place to live. The 2nd amendment doesn’t guarantee a right to be violent with a gun
Exactly, to your point “violent people” are a problem and the buck stops with Ms Sanders when it comes to the safety of citizens in AR. Stabbings, shootings, home invasion, robbery, rape, mugging are all perpetrated by “violent people” we need to look at all facets of reasons and policy.
That CDC chart u shared is for “firearm mortality” it’s more useful for policy discussion around firearms to exclude those numbers. Looking at this CDC chart we see the majority of firearm death is self inflicted.
Yes, all the charts in the thread are from the CDC, nothing wrong with them. Just pointing out that honest policy discussions on the topic should exclude suicide.
Actually, no it shouldn't. I am old enough to remember why GA had a 3 day hold on hand guns. It was to reduce suicide.
People were buying hand guns going & ending it all in parking lot. Waiting three days buys time. It worked. Then help lines started. More reduction. More u do, more adds up.
She also forgot to mention Arkansas Education Ranks
Arkansas ranks 43rd in education on the 2023 U.S. News Best States list. This is a two-spot drop from 2021. Arkansas also ranks in the bottom 10 for both pre-K to 12th grade and higher education
She's so f****** full of s*** I would actually laugh if that was funny and it's an outright f****** lie but what do you expect from Republicans that's all that comes out of their mouth and treason is the only thing that comes out of their actions
Yep, my communist state of CA...👏🏻👏🏻 amazing what a few extra precautions and rules will do. Gun regulation will never stop the violence, that barn door is shut!... BUT, it will hinder it greatly.
It's amazing how many CA residents I know who have one or more gun safes - full of guns 🤔
According to Brian Tyler Cohen "Arkansas is also #40 in economy, #47 in healthcare and #49 in crime." It is fair to say she is cherry picking statistics.
Nobody wants to live on Arkansas let’s be real. You’re there for one. They’re uneducated, unhealthy and ignorant. Nope that’s where your cult is. Nobody’s moving to Arkansas flake.
Arkansas Education ranking: 47th. Healthcare: 48th
Women's healthcare: 47th
Teen pregnancies: 2nd!
Who would want to move there? People from Mississippi & Louisiana?
Please share! We’re at over 600. Sign ASAP to show the NY Mayor & DA we are seriously opposed to the terrorism charge & death penalty. https://Change.org/MangioneLuigi
Republicans just can’t resist trying to gaslight the American people. Does she not know that some people outside of Arkansas have access to the Internet? The real scores on Arkansas are found on its own website, and it’s not pretty: “struggling to shine in anything.“
What she also doesn't mention is it's a somewhat unscientific study conducted by a moving company that found 65% of customers in Arkansas moved somewhere in state, and 35% moved out of state, for a net of +30.
That's it. That's the study. https://www.atlasvanlines.com/resources/migration-patterns#dom-top-ten-in
Arkansas is a beautiful state. I would live there for that reason, but not for healthcare or education. Eureka Springs is a nice place to visit because it is progressive and welcoming to all. Hot Springs also welcomes anyone with money lol
Consider Arkansas’ neighboring states Missouri, Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, and Oklahoma. Arkansas takes in other red state refugees with varying horrible metrics. Arkansas hasn’t earned bragging rights.
Arkansas has made no progress. If not for the lone blue dot city of Little Rock, which is still 1950ish, it's all grass, farmland and broken down shacks.
No silly, inbred is when uncles date their nieces and have babies, like lots of Trump supporters. Make sense smarty pants? Breed vs. bred…
Maybe you should learn the English language and past tenses, ya fuckin Russian rat!
BTW FUCK PUTIN TRUMP AND ELON MUSK

thanks for proving once again just how ignorant left leaners truly are. You seem to lack necessary vocabulary to express yourself without using profanity, learn more adjectives.
I’m the one giving you grammar lessons pal. Did I get your parties in a bunch little biaaaatttcch? Waaaaahhhhhhhhhh
And here ya go BOOM!!!!
Swearing makes a more well rounded human. Are you going to continue to out yourself through this? https://health.clevelandclinic.org/swearing-and-intelligence
You were way nicer than I would have been. I scanned their other replies to posts. I get the impression they're from Arkansas! Which pretty much proves the point about education!
Well, I guess the first black president, Bill Clinton was product of inbreeding? He was AR educated, Oxford educated too. Pretty much disproves your point.
OK, I had to delete my last post cause I just put everything together that you’re saying, Bill Clinton is not black. He also was not our first black president, OBAMA was.
As far as education is concerned, Bill Clinton is what you call an exception.
Not stated: thank God for Tyson relocating all admin jobs to Northwest Arkansas and Walmart’s enduring requirement for all vendors to have at least a VP-level presence in Northwest Arkansas.
Walmart has people from all over flocking to the Rogers/Bentonville area. It's a little more blue here than the rest of the state but still solidly red.
Oh, she is definitely just lying. I've seen Fayetteville and Bentonville on "too places to move" lists but never the whole state. Nobody in their right mind wants to move out to Conway ya know.
Whaddya mean top state to move to? Are people moving there or not? Let me guess. Somebody thinks people should move there because the cost of living is low. There's usually a reason for that.
Lots of people are moving to one specific area in Arkansas right now. The cost of living is fairly low here ig. One side effect of all these people moving here is that the cost of living will not be low for long though.
Their system works for them, keeps people ignorant via underfunded public schools (blame the teachers and their unions, while you ban books and push Donnie Bibles via your curriculum), and themselves flush with cash and corruption. Oh what a web...
Whenever someone says top whatever or number one whatever I always want to ask them based on what statistic? It’s so easy to say that, but then when you dig deeper, you find out that the statistic they’re using is nothing but BS.
No offense to blue Arkansans, but no thank you. As it is, I recently moved from a deep blue state to a red one for non-economic reasons, and I'm seeing the differences (not good) in several ways. Definitely a mixed bag.
Cost of living, to me, is a measure of how desirable a neighborhood is. Arkansas is a cheap place to live, because it has so little to offer. By contrast, my home state of California, is expensive but a truly amazing place to call home. Well worth the "premium."
Yes but California ranks the highest in murders. I guess they're not guns, which I think I'd rather be shot than stabbed.
New York is ranked 11.
Illinois is #6.
Top state to move to if you enjoy having your civil rights stripped away, don’t want a quality education for your children, don’t value your health, and want a corrupt governor who steals taxpayer money…
Sure, if you want to exclude anyone who isn't a white nationalist christian from everything...it's the best state for that. Of course, the schools are atrocious...
She has money, which makes weight loss easier. Her constituents are impoverished. Many Arkansans are depending on SNAP and are running out of that money before months end. They have to live on the cheapest, un healthiest foods to survive.
Considering most of them can't even go to a normal wellness check-up, I'd assume almost every luxury would be out of the question. Meanwhile, she is one of the states highest paid government employees and can have every luxury.
I get that but unless states like New York and California do more to fix their dire affordability crisis, she’s unfortunately going to have a fraction of a good case to make here
A tiny fraction considering the conditions in Arkansas. I live in an affordable state. I know people who have moved here for affordability and then gone back to less affordable places. SC is beautiful but incredibly behind in so many ways.
Many of us are content in believing she cheated in the election while the entire nation was watching CNN to see if Trump was going to leave the White House. We believe a lot of that happened in southern states.
This Ozempic slug is a grotesque immoral clump of cells. Imagine telling her broke constituents they’re fortunate to live in an economic backwater that nobody wants to invest in.
I especially like how there's a new sense of security in Arkansas over the last few years. She always has one eye on the lookout for illegal immigrants in the vicinity too
We get guns at your school we got guns at my school guns and knives taking life, fuck you. Why is it this story every time they're in our territory. Is this fun, or is it race relations.
According to the Arkansas Child Labor Law, a minor 14 or 15 years of age cannot begin work before 6 a.m., work past 9 p.m., nor more than 8 hours a day, 6 days a week, or more than 48 hours a week when school is not in session.
And do what take up hog sloppin? Have our kids work in the meat plants?
Sorry but one of the worst states to move to for anything other than maybe Bass Fishin.
The only reason people are moving there is because it's cheap. It's cheap, because nobody with money wants to live there and the people who do are too poor to leave.
For MAGA morons maybe, but no one in their right minds are! And the ones that do are going to find out real quick how majorly fucked up that state is! Arkansas is 47th in Education! What’s that tell me? Stupid fucking people live there! All you have to do is look at Huckabee to know that!😂😂
Excuse me but; from what poll or survey is Arkansas number 1? Is this her private poll?
Who would want to move there? One of the deadliest, less healthy, lowest in Education, etc...
OR is this one of those "you keep telling a lie and people will believe it"? I'm sure she learned from the best!
Ugh. I can't look at her. She was such a liar when she was VP Trump's press secretary. I feel sorry for anyone living in Arkansas. Her father is a fake Christian, and they are both horrible people.
I grew up in Louisiana (now in New England) and Arkansas has always been a desolate place with little opportunity for growth, jobs, etc. When "The Beverly Hillbillies" talks about back in the hills - this is it folks. Except for Walmart, it hasn't changed much. Yech!

Self inflicted is just one data point that should drive the start of a conversation. However, people like Huckabee lack the strength to do so.
People were buying hand guns going & ending it all in parking lot. Waiting three days buys time. It worked. Then help lines started. More reduction. More u do, more adds up.
feels like it should be in the brochure

Higher numbers are not better. Must be the education she had growing up there.
Lousy morals.
Lousy Governor.
Lousy smirk.
I hate all things Huckabee.
That's it. That's the study.

Keep em ignorant and poor so they’ll still vote for you.
As far as education is concerned, Bill Clinton is what you call an exception.
of they. What belongs to or is made or done by them.
They’re = Contraction that means they are.

You’ll have to start paying for grammar lessons if you continue to ask these questions.
Arkansas is 35th in economy. It only contributes 6% to our economy.
