Northern and western states only have themselves to blame for their gun crime due to being sanctuary states for illegals and not properly vetting every single immigrant that comes through the border or receives government services.
The NRA has an 8-story building in Washington DC and what do you think they do every day in that building?
I have to laugh when gun advocates say: If we're ever taken over by a foreign government I'll need my gun(s).
Picture this scenario: We're taken over, they want all guns confiscated. The unfortunate ones who don't own guns become paid informants, paid generously.
"Yes, my neighbor who's retired has a big gun collection and he's not about to give them up!"
"Alright, we'll cut off his social security, freeze his bank accounts, make his charge cards ineffective, cut off electricity/water to his house, and if that doesn't work we'll send in a drone or firebomb his house!"
OP, to answer your question, why don’t the Northern and Western States actually charge AND convict criminals that illegally use guns…. Instead of giving them a “break” and act shocked when they commit another violent crime.
Instead of trying to blame Southern States for the mistakes of the Northern States and their lack of actually enforcing all the gun laws that are currently on the books is pretty shameless. Once the Northern and Western States get there individual acts together, maybe I’ll listen to what you have to say cuz right now, it’s a big hell to the no… Fix your own house first.
Many legislators, nationwide, would dearly love to crack down on gun ownership, but every time they even think about angering the NRA, they vote without a clear conscience!
Do you realize that a bullet wound can cost taxpayers close to $150,000 to $200,000 per operation?
"they vote without a clear conscience!"
Heaven forbid we OBEY the CONSTITUTION!
Like has been said over and OVER, "apply the SAME gun laws to the 1st AMENDMENT that violate the 2nd amendment.
Laws passed for controlling guns only hurt the Law abiding and never the criminal.
Makes it harder for to defend one’s self, family, and sometimes others.
Yep, the purpose of the 2nd Amendment was so civilians could defend themselves from the Govt, (not other civilians).
So what's the solution for stopping the gun trafficking in that video?
More gun stores in New York so the guns won't have to be "trafficked."
