FBI figures show more Americans are killed with hammers, clubs, hands and feet than rifles

(NaturalNews) A new set of data from the FBI shows what tens of millions of Americans already know but that Washington and other elitist politicians refuse to acknowledge: That for the past several years more people have been killed with clubs and hammers than with rifles.

According to the data:

-- In 2005, there were 445 people killed with rifles, compared to 608 who were killed with a "blunt object" (club, hammer, etc.);

-- In 2006, the numbers were 438 and 618 respectively; in 2007, 453 and 647; in 2008, 380 versus 603; and in 2009, there were 348 deaths by rifle compared to 611 who were killed with a blunt object.
