Outlawing guns will have the same effect on violent crime as outlawing drugs had on drug trafficking and addiction.

Punish the innocent, reward the guilty.

The folks who got the heck out of Dodge last year are smart.
Hard to not see this coming.

These States still have PDs to collect the data?

Strangely enough, about 85 percent of violent crime in my State is committed by people from outside the State. Maybe we could start tracking the people and do something about them first.

excepting those designated priority and/or sensitive

That's code for guns registered to law enforcement guns "lost" from evidence lockers, and guns marked "destroyed" but somehow fell out of the back of the truck on the way to the incinerator. Can't have that data getting out into the open now.

No surprise there and I am not surprised that NH and ME were not part of it.

VT has always been very pro-second amendment but are crazy, liberal greenies for the most part so I wasn’t sure which side they would fall on.

As with the unConstitutional “Northeast Compact” re: COVID response in the spring of 2020 Governor Wolf once again demonstrates a failure to comprehend that the Commonwealth is NOT exclusively aligned to great NYC.

Basically everything from Tuscarora Mountain north and west is Pittsburgh/Ohio/Midwest oriented. South of the mountain (including Philly and the Northeast Metropolitan area) is definitely greater NYC but York, Adams, and Franklin have more in common with Baltimore/Washington than any of the major PA cities.

Why don't they provide maps showing the neighborhoods responsible for most of the gun crimes? Why don't they provide demographic information of those committing the crimes? Like a disease, you first must identify the pathogen, and then you must provide a medicine to cure the disease.

Hmmm... NY, CT, PA and NJ. Thank goodness I have no burning desire to live and any of those states. Although I have to admit I grew up in northern NJ.

They won’t find many straw purchasers in these states. Getting a CCW is very tough, and the sort of people who would buy guns on behalf of criminals are unlikely to have one.

There are some nice gun collections here in Connecticut, but they are very carefully secured. These guys take shooting and the history of weaponry very seriously.

I’ve got some data for them. Just in case they hadn’t noticed.... When black gangbangers get illegal guns they kill other black people with them... Constantly. On the other hand, legal firearm owners very rarely shoot anyone.

“gun violence continues to plague communities”

Love how they never specify which communities and who the majority of the victims and suspects are.

On a side note, it dose t appear that gun violence plague the nation. It plagues Democrat run, majority black, liberal cities.

Hmmm...

This seems to border on the unconstitutional.

The laws on the states’ books are all unique to the states’ legislatures so one states’ “gun crime” doesn’t necessarily mean it’s the same crime or punishment in another state. So its an infringement of your rights to coordinate the data with another state to criminalize you.

This is also unfair to the other 46 states - wy don’t they get to see the data?

Why not just make the information public so ALL can see?

Thier final determination is all guns must be eliminated for this to work meaning law abiding citizens were the main target. If they go after the illegal guns they will be targets immediately and they know it. This has a more devious back door agenda
