Ilhan Omar Claims ‘Every day on average 500 people die from gun violence.’
Earlier this month Rep. Ilhan Omar (D) tweeted in support of Rep. Lucy McBath’s anti-gun push.
Supporting my colleagues’ call on Senate Majority Leader to vote on H.R. 8, 1112 & 1158.
Gun violence is an epidemic.
Every day on average 500 people die from gun violence. How many more lives will we let gun violence claim?
Retweeting: https://t.co/ty5taOLeOC— Rep. Ilhan Omar (@Ilhan) June 5, 2019
The claim was so blatantly wrong that even Politifact had to rate it as false.
According to Gun Violence Archive, in 2018 the number of gun-related deaths was 14,754 which over the course of the year was an average of 40 deaths per day, not the 500 deaths as Omar claims.
When questioned about the source for her outlandish claim her spokesperson, Jeremy Slevin, defended Omar’s use of the 500 figure. Saying that Omar’s tweet was “in the context of domestic legislation” and that the “reference to 500 could have been more precise”.
Just recently Rep. Adam Schiff also quoted a higher figure in pushing for legislation to deny Second Amendment rights. Fales data seems to be a trend when it comes to anything having to do with the lefts attempts to deny citizens their fundamental rights.

obviously this raghead idiot must still believe she is in her own muslim country to spout these lies here. why is this POS still in office since i believe she married her own brother to get here. this is crazy to let these muslims/socialists to even be able to run for office here in this republic yet our liberal dems have no morals or common sense and evidently no restrictions or credible requirements for a candidate to run for office. again, have we loss our senses to allow these people who are completely anti-American and who represent pockets of people in a specific voting district who want Islam to take over our Constitution as the law of the land. if this is allowed to be the norm you will soon see a large group of American patriots who will correct the situation before it becomes a more reputable problem. they start small,get in the door and then the have children raised on our social welfare support system to overwhelm another district and elect another representative all on our taxpayers money. people, we are paying for these anti Americans to take over our country and force our children to be as they are or die. this madness/stupidity on our part must stop or the next generation will be controlled by muslims and socialists yet because of our freedoms we let them takeover. there must be laws to prevent this to happen, NOW!
