1. Impose universal background checks before buying a gun. More than four out of five Americans support this measure, to prevent criminals or terrorists from obtaining guns.

Assuming that number is true (and I don't) that number changes when people learn what "universal background checks" means.

The left thinks people become criminals because they are poor.

Now we are to believe casino hotels have no real security monitoring systems and don’t know if people haul lots of guns and ammo into their rooms.

I wonder how many casinos are going to get robbed because of this lack of security? /s

Once upon a time, there was this human affect called “shame.”

It’s always someone elses fault. That creates a society full of sociopaths.

A radio program had a law enforcement officer say what they saw inside the suite upon entry. Antifa papers, and “a lot of it.”

If you are waiting for the FBI to verify evidence, it won’t happen. If the State does not show pictures immediately, it is a con. George Soros’ money speaks louder than evidence. Look what big foriegn money is doing to Europe, invasion & war, no justice, no truth, and they want to bring it here.

Good article, especially just to refute the NYT thinking that feel good laws that will stop law abiders from committing gun crimes will stop evildoers.

Don’t we see this, macro and micro? Is Kim Jong Un affected by sanctions? Laws? Do rapists stay home at night because rape is against the law? When a human chooses to do evil, laws won’t keep him from it.

THAT is your common sense.
