Gun Facts, Data and Commonsense

Gun deaths will soon exceed car deaths. Considering the fact that there are far more car owners than gun owners that cars are used far more frequently there is a huge problem with gun deaths. Gun ownership has been declining until recently yet gun deaths continue to increase.

What CONS and gun nuts won't acknowledge is that with rights come responsibilities, therefore only responsible people should own guns. With over 32,000+ gun deaths each year and many more accidental shooting and assaults it is quite clear that there are a lot of people who are not qualified to have guns. A responsible society balances the rights of citizens to own killing machines with the rights of people not to become victims of those killing machines. The victims of the Sandy Hook massacre certainly had their rights violated.

In 2010, guns took the lives of 31,076 Americans in homicides, suicides and unintentional shootings.  This is the equivalent of more than 85 deaths each day and more than three deaths each hour.1

73,505 Americans were treated in hospital emergency departments for non-fatal gunshot wounds in 2010.2

Firearms were the third-leading cause of injury-related deaths nationwide in 2010, following poisoning and motor vehicle accidents.3

Between 1955 and 1975, the Vietnam War killed over 58,000 American soldiers – less than the number of civilians killed with guns in the U.S. in an average two-year period.4

In the first seven years of the U.S.-Iraq War, over 4,400 American soldiers were killed. Almost as many civilians are killed with guns in the U.S., however, every seven weeks.5

 Homicide

Guns were used in 11,078 homicides in the U.S. in 2010, comprising almost 35% of all gun deaths, and over 68% of all homicides.6

On average, 33 gun homicides were committed each day for the years 2005-2010.7

Regions and states with higher rates of gun ownership have significantly higher rates of homicide than states with lower rates of gun ownership.8

Where guns are prevalent, there are significantly more homicides, particularly gun homicides.9

 Suicide

Firearms were used in 19,392 suicides in the U.S. in 2010, constituting almost 62% of all gun deaths.10

Over 50% of all suicides are committed with a firearm.11

On average, 49 gun suicides were committed each day for the years 2005-2010.12

White males, about 40% of the U.S. population, accounted for over 80% of firearm suicides in 2010.13

A study of California handgun purchasers found that in the first year after the purchase of a handgun, suicide was the leading cause of death among the purchasers.14

Firearms were used in nearly 44% of suicide deaths among persons under age 25 in 2010.15


More than 75% of guns used in suicide attempts and unintentional injuries of 0-19 year-olds were stored in the residence of the victim, a relative, or a friend.16

The risk of suicide increases in homes where guns are kept loaded and/or unlocked.17

Unintentional Deaths and Injuries

In 2010, unintentional firearm injuries caused the deaths of 606 people.18

From 2005-2010, almost 3,800 people in the U.S. died from unintentional shootings.19

Over 1,300 victims of unintentional shootings for the period 2005–2010 were under 25 years of age.20

People of all age groups are significantly more likely to die from unintentional firearm injuries when they live in states with more guns, relative to states with fewer guns. On average, states with the highest gun levels had nine times the rate of unintentional firearms deaths compared to states with the lowest gun levels.21

A federal government study of unintentional shootings found that 8% of such shooting deaths resulted from shots fired by children under the age of six.22

The U.S. General Accounting Office has estimated that 31% of unintentional deaths caused by firearms might be prevented by the addition of two devices: a child-proof safety lock (8%) and a loading indicator (23%).23

 Shooting sprees are not rare in the United States.

Mother Jones has tracked and mapped every shooting spree in the last three decades. “Since 1982, there have been at least 61 mass murders carried out with firearms across the country, with the killings unfolding in 30 states from Massachusetts to Hawaii,” they found. And in most cases, the killers had obtained their weapons legally: Source: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/wonkblog/wp/2012/12/14/nine-facts-about-guns-and-mass-shootings-in-the-united-states/

Why Fat Acceptance Has Failed

Why Fat Acceptance Has Failed

For anyone who thinks that the FA movement has been a success I have a bridge in Brooklyn that may interest you. What percentage of the fat and obese US population is a member of the FA movement. Is it one percent? NOPE! Is it .5%? Nope it's lower than that. How about .1%? WRONG! Maybe it's .01%? Not even close? According to the data there are less than 10,000 members of the FA movement in he US. There are three "major" groups, NAAFA, ISAA and Bigger Fatter Blog aka New American Fat Acceptance Movement or NAFAM.

NAAFA has been around for over forty years and still nobody takes them seriously. They have been the go to source for the mainstream media to contact when they are presenting a story about obesity or size discrimination but even that is changing because today Fat Bastard and Bigger Fatter Blog is rapidly becoming the go to source on all things fat and it has all happened as a result of the humble blog spot blog. There is a saying in advertising; "It's not the media, it's the message" In a few short years Fat Bastard, Bigger Fatter Blog and its contributors like Rev BLA, Teddy Bear, Belly Boy, The Chef, Rotunda Hindenberg and other too many to mention have sent that message worldwide but more about that later.

Why after over forty years has NAAFA failed to reach the growing legions of lard?

As the waistlines and gluttony of Americans continue to grow with no end is site the size of the fat acceptance movement continues to shrink. Remember when I said it's not the media but rather the message? Fatlings are not buying the NAAFA brand because they know it is bullshit and more than that it is an insult to the intelligence fatlings everywhere.

The biggest flaw in the NAAFA message is the denial of the laws of physics. More specifically it is their denial of the gluttony/obesity connection. I think if one of their heroes suck Paul Campos, Kelly Bliss or Linda Bacon told them that there earth was flat they'd believe. In fact there are more flat Earthers that there are people who take NAAFA seriously. Perhaps that is because the flat Earthers have more credibility.

NAAFA style Fat Acceptance is an all girls club.

That would be fine but there are more overweight men than women. Men are bigger gluttons and there are more of them but men are woefully under represented in today's out dated and silly FA movement. Maybe NAAFA should change its name to NAAFAG. or National Association of Angry Fat American Girls because that's what they are. The NAAFIAN lie a lot and one lie they have told is that Fat Bastard is a misogynist because he has been critical of the fat feminist invasion of the FA movement. Like all straight men Fat Bastard loves lesbians. In fact girl on girl action is his favorite form of porn albeit they are usually skinny chicks.

Fat Bastard loves women. His stance against WLS is very pro woman because most WLS victims are fat girls.

NAAFA's anti diet stance


Susan Power: Lesbian, Feminist, Nutritionist, Weight Loss Guru and no Fat Bastard you can't convert her even with your "educated" tongue.

To NAAFA dieting is a mortal sin and people like Richard Simmons, Jenny Craig, MeMe Roth and Susan Powter are evil incarnate. Susan Powter must really throw them for a loop because Susan Powter is a rug munching man hating feminist just like them with the only difference being is Susan Powter is not a glutton.

Fat people do go on weight loss diets and lose weight. Fat Bastard himself has lost weight and maintained that weight loss for over a year with no effort. NAAFA and site like Big Fat Blog will not allow any diet talk.... AND they call MeMe Roth a Nazi? Not allowing diet talk is like having a church that won't let in sinners. What do they fear? If their arguments were sound you'd think that they would relish the opportunity to exploit these teaching moments.

The exclusion of feederism and the hypocrisy

For a long time the leading feederism site Dimensions Magazine and NAAFA were joined at the hip as well as the genitals. This was probably the golden age of fat acceptance but NAAFA, bowing to the even angrier man hating rug munching fat feminists pressured NAAFA to condemn feederism and fat female heterosexuality. The feederism movement is growing in leaps and bound with very busy sites popping up all over the world. The same cannot be said about the fat acceptance movement which remains in a steep nosedive.

Feederism and fat acceptance belong together. Feederism is a pillar of real fat acceptance. The celebration of gluttony is another pillar. If you want to read rational and intelligent discussions of fat acceptance you can find them here on Bigger Fatter Blog or on Dimensions Magazine. If you go to sites like Big Fat Blog or Fierce Freethinking Fatties all you will read is the same tired malingering, stale arguments and dishonesty that has been the hallmark of NAAFA and its dwindling loony membership.

Real Women Have Curves?

Talk about misogyny! Sheeeesh! Not only is that statement chauvinistic and demeaning to all women it's not even true because if it were true Kelly Bliss would not be a real woman. She'd be a refrigerator with legs and a fat balding head.


Curves or a refrigerator with legs and a head showing male pattern baldness? You tell me?



MeMe Roth on the other hand has some dangerous curves.

I often wonder if MeMe Roth were a man instead of a gorgeous woman if the angry fat girls would be so hateful, vile and catty when talking about her. Dr Oz also talks about the gluttony/obesity connection, childhood obesity and gluttony and the heath consequences to those who choose a gluttonous lifestyle. Fat girls probably get all hot over a skinny guy like Dr Oz. Fat girls see a woman like MeMe Roth and they see red. They never attack MeMe's message and if they gave it some thought they would have some valid arguments but instead they attack MeMe personally. That sort of demagoguery is bad to fat people and bad for the FA movement.

Deep down these fat girls know that MeMe Roth is woman men want to see and the woman that most fat girls including them want to be, so they hate her. She reminds them over everything they can never be such as educated, desirable and classy.

Attacked By A Jealous Fat Girl

The following is Jenna Talia's first article on Bigger Fatter Politics. This may be disturbing to some readers as Jenna is recounting a vicious and unprovoked attack by a pod of angry land whales. Keep watchng the comments section for comments from both me, Fat Bastard and Jenna.

Attacked By A Jealous Fat Girl by Jenna Talia

My first deadly encounter with an enraged fat girl happened one summer as a junior in high school. A friend and I stopped at an ice cream shop for some gellato. Instead of sitting at the round umbrella covered picnic tables and eating ice cream my friend Priscilla and I decided instead to stand to enjoy our frozen confections. While we were eating our tasty treats some friends of Priscilla's pulled into the parking lot and she walked over to talk to them. It was then when the first insult was hurled at me. It came from a table of angry fat girls who were students from a nearby college. They were purposely talking loud enough for me to hear them. They were referring to me as, that skinny slut, bone, anorexic skank and size 0 stick girl. When I looked up at them for ringleader shouted at me, "what are you staring at skank?" I ignored her. Then she said, " I'm talking to you skank" I continued to ignore her. Then she said, "Real women have curves stick girl." while another one said, "Only a dog wants a bone". I responded, "yeah whatever." Even though I was dressed much more modestly than they were one of them accused me of dressing like a slut. At this point people were beginning to watch. Priscilla noticed and asked what was going on. I told her I didn't know and I suggested that we just leave. As we were getting ready to leave when suddenly the biggest and meanest fat girl got up from her seat to further confront me. I turned and walked away when she grabbed the back of my hair and yanked me to the pavement. Priscilla tried to pull her off me put this enraged land whale appear to have superhuman strength. Luckily for us a police car happened to be coming by. The officer was able to stop the attack and that's when things really got interesting.

Too fat to handcuff behind the back!

Within minutes another police car pulled up with its lights flashing and siren blaring and another officer got out. Then a Sheriff's car pulled up with two deputies. They were getting witness accounts of the altercation and attack. Her friends lied to the police and told her I had started the fight while other witnesses told the truth. The officer who was interviewing me told me that he believed me and let me know that he was letting the big nasty fat girl and her big nasty fat friends dig themselves in deeper with their lies. The officer knew that there was a surveillance camera that would've captured the entire incident. They got the fat girl and her friends to sign sworn statements. They then got the store manager to show them the surveillance video. Once the officers and the Sheriff's deputies saw the video all of the angry fat girls were placed in handcuffs, arrested and charged with various crimes.

Fat guys are really nice guys. The fat manager who showed the police the video of the attack was a big teddy bear of a man. He brought out a first aid kit and some ice for my cuts and bruises. In the meantime, the police had called the fire rescue ambulance. As a precautionary measure paramedics placed me in a neck collar and placed me on a stretcher and then I was placed into the ambulance. They said that I had a mild concussion and some soft tissue trauma to my neck. The manager was quite upset by what had happened. He gave Priscilla his business card along with a stack of coupons for free products as a gesture of goodwill.

The police called my parents and informed them that I was being taken to a local hospital for injuries sustained in an assault. They and my mom and dad met the ambulance at the emergency room. They had asked the police what happened and the police informed them that I've been attacked by a jealous and angry fat girl simply because I looked better than she did. The officer went on to inform them that these sort of attacks are not all that uncommon these days. He assured them that I would be okay but for liability reasons and for my own safety I had to be looked at by an emergency room physician. While there in the E.R. my injuries or photographed in the police obtained a medical report to aid them in leveling charges and prosecuting this case.

Unfortunately, the angry fat girl could not be charged with a hate crime even though this was clearly a hate crime. She and her friends all plead guilty to various charges. She was sentenced to six months in jail and her perjurious cohorts were each fined one thousand dollars for knowingly making false statements to the police.

In a civil case, I won $78,000 judgment against my attacker for actual damages, pain and suffering and punitive damages. We are still trying to collect on the judgment as the beast who attacked me is a big stinky fat welfare momma. 

Since this incident, my family and I have developed a close friendship with Jerry the ice cream store manager who was so kind, compassionate and helpful. He truly was my knight in shining armor along with the law enforcement officers many of whom were fat but very wise. I'm still at a loss as to why fat guys are so nice since they are usually the butt of jokes and fat girls who are a protected species are so mean. I guess some things will remain a mystery.

As horrific as this incident was it is given me a greater appreciation of fat guys and an increasing disdain for fat girls. Fat men are far less likely to cause trouble than any other group of people. It was Jerry a fat man who first rushed to my aid and defense. After reading Fat Bastardo's articles I have come to believe that the humility, nobility and a sense of honor are traits quite common to fat men and all men but pride, jealousy, avarice and rage are the traits that make fat girls so darn mean. 

Comment: By Fat Bastardo:

Fat girls love to eat, fuck and fight and not necessarily in that order. Fat girls are particularly dangerous when there are food and skinny men around. It makes them more dangerous. Always exercise extreme caution in these situations.

Why are fat guys so nice? I think it is because we are honest and we are fine in our own skin despite the cruel taunts we sometimes get. There are other reasons. First off we are male and therefore we are held to higher standards of conduct. We are not mommy's little prince the way girls are daddy's little princess. It is not OK for us to hit girls but it is OK for girls to hit us especially if we are fat.

Fat girls often have excessive estrogen and testosterone due to their tremendous bulk whereas fat men have slightly less testosterone and slightly more estrogen that the average lean guy because fat holds estrogen and our sloth decreases the production of testosterone.

Fat Bastardo's Update: 

The sow who attacked Jenna got early release but a few months later Child Protective Services took her kids away. It turns out that this violent pig was also a child abuser.

Fat Girls Fighting Over FOOD!

I hope these cops get tested for diseases after handling this wild Snorlax!
