“Gun owners fought hard to elect a president who would take a sledgehammer to Biden’s unconstitutional gun control policies, and today, President Trump proved he’s serious about that fight,” Aidan Johnston, a director for Gun Owners of America, said in a statement. “We hope that this executive order is just the first of many victories reestablishing our Second Amendment rights during the Trump administration.”
Gun safety advocates are sounding the alarm, including those galvanized by the devastating high school massacre that took place seven years ago Friday in Parkland, Florida.
“Trump’s priorities couldn’t be more clear. Spoiler: it’s not protecting kids. Gun deaths finally went down last year, and Trump just moved to undo the rules and laws that helped make that happen,” said Natalie Fall, Executive Director of March For Our Lives, in a statement. “He is going to get Americans killed in his thirst for vengeance and eagerness to please the gun lobby and rally armed extremists. Remember the next time that a mass shooting happens, Trump did everything in his power to enable it, not prevent it.”
— Mark Follman in Trump Prepares to Wipe Out Years of Progress on Gun Violence
There were no “years” of “progress” on “gun violence”
There were “years” of anti-gun BS on gun control to violate the constitutional rights of law abiding Americans while the left wing increased and facilitated, and even carried out, criminal activity and violence against law abiding Americans.
Over 90% of mass shooters exhibited ‘gender identity’ issues in interview (those that lived) or in their personal lives. 100% of mass shooters exhibited mental illness for other reasons also. All of this facilitated and emboldened by left wing ‘progressives’ and democrat politicians. So remember that for the next mass shootings.
Left wing and anti-gun, partners in a death cult trying to overthrow the United States and install marx- ist social- ism from with in using our tax dollars to do it.
It seems there are a few that are starting to get it in the fed side at the moment (that are not in on it). It is telling when I hear my taxes are likely to go up because of federal funding cuts after a decade+ of hearing how we contribute more to the fed than we received for all kinds of programs. Going to get real interesting when the actual state of the budget is unavoidable and nothing can soften the blow up here.
The Left is worried about American lives, all of a sudden? Let’s hear them talk about protecting life in the womb to prove they’re serious about it…
Womb, inner cities, crime victims, etc. Yeah it was never about saving lives, addressing racism, righting previous wrongs or really anything. All they ever want is power and control and from the petty tyrant to calculating psychopath all want their victims disarmed, closely monitored, and unable to speak (or act) out.
Careful. If you say “raycism” three times, you’ll conjure Debbie from TTAG and bring her over here.
Candyman, Candyman…….
40 odd years ago her script would have been mostly on point and relevant. Problem is late gen x and millennials especially were raised and conditioned at all levels to treat everyone equally and there were no real differences between different colors and racism was pointless. That it got resurrected by a mix of internet outrage and Obama for the use of controlling the masses really has turned most thinking people away from giving a fuck about it and becoming increasingly hostile to those who use it. Can’t do much about the females for now but at least the majority of men (not so much the males for commies) are on board with some level of sense and hopefully it continues past Trump.
Truth and logic are anathema to the ignorant (like Mark ‘Foolman’)
