The Biden Justice Department announced a new rule Thursday that will require anyone who sells guns to run federal background checks — a process that would cut down on what's been known as the 'gun show loophole.' #AureFreePress#News#press#headline#NRA#USA#Breaking#BreakingNews
More than 68,000 illegally trafficked firearms in the United States over a five-year period came through unlicensed dealers who aren't required to perform background checks, according to new data released Thursday by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. #AureFreePress#News#press#headline#gop#Politics#NRA
> Love or hate the #NRA — and no one, it seems, is indifferent toward the organization — logic that stresses education and safety around firearms is something that pretty much all of us can get behind. Isn’t it?

Die logische Lösung wäre dann, Mütter mit 2 Schusswaffen auszustatten, Großmütter mit 4,... Daughters of the American Revolution (gibt Bonuspunkte) mit 100.

"In June of 2020, Alexander #Smirnov, an #FBI informant, dropped a “bombshell.” His revelation: The owner of #Burisma, a #Ukrainian energy company, paid $5 million each to Joe #Biden and Hunter Biden as a bribe in exchange for Biden, then Vice President, stopping an investigation into Burisma. Smirnov’s allegation became the basis for the #Republican’s Biden #impeachment inquiry...."
The National Rifle Association, its former longtime leader, and two other officers were found to have violated basic principles of running a nonprofit.
The jury decided that "asking the #NRA to pay for lavish personal trips, flights aboard private jets and helicopters, expensive clothes and hair styling and makeup for LaPierre’s wife – all of which came up during the trial – could not be considered fair to the organization."

The pro-gun group’s former leader used the organization’s funds to enrich himself and those close to him. But the deception went much deeper.

Today is the anniversary of the Kent State shootings, or more appropriately the "May 4th Massacre". In the wake of recent events and our consideration of gun control laws I think this day deserves a great deal of reflection. Four Americans were murdered, and nine more wounded, by our own national guard simply for participating in an anti-war demonstration. If we want to consider limiting access to guns on american soil lets start with our own national guard and police, not our citizens. The last thing I want to see is an unarmed populace needing to deal with a well-armed police and military force. Lets focus on securing the rights of the citizen, not giving them up
Counterpoint; maybe #police would never have been able to justify being so heavily armed in the first place, if it wasn't EASIER to get a #Gun in the #USA than to get a #Degree, a #Home, or a #Job.
The "defence against tyranny" #rhetoric LOST ANY and ALL water it may have held once the #NRA got in bed with the most tyrannical #President elected to date.
