Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey (R), heretofore known only for her stridently pro-gun stance, has caved to a gun control push that intends to ban Glock switches in Alabama, even though possession of the devices is already banned federally.
The Associated Press quoted Ivey spokeswoman Gina Maiola saying, “Governor Ivey supports getting dangerous Glock switches out of the hands of gangs and criminals. Along with this measure, she will unveil several other public safety proposals that will support law enforcement and crack down on crime. She expects the package to have bipartisan support.” Mike Blo0mberg-affiliated Everytown for Gun Safety cheered Ivey’s gun control support, while admitting that the switches are already prohibited under federal law.

I cain’t stand that public screwal teacher from Rio Linda, memaw Poison Ivey!
Racist.
She’s an old Democrat.
I’ll never understand why people vote for women, especially in a place like Alabama.
What’s the point of this legislation?
....so female Governor Ivey caved on gun control, female Governor Noem caved and fixed it to where boys could shower with girls, female Senator Ernst might as well be a Democrat, then there is female democrat Governor Whitmer the marxist and female Governor Hochul the socialist.....and these are just current female politicians from my memory so I’m fairly sure there are other radical female Governors or Senators out there......what about REpub Senator Collins!..............wow!..............
If only gang members and criminals would obey such laws...
To give the gun ban ‘Tards a “Win” to brag about in their next fund raiser.
Also to claim it is “Only a start”.
And yes, this IS redundant.
Particularly since states rarely enforce these laws but the Fed. do.
But as with many laws and new tech, it is virtually unenforceable now that they can be 3D printed at home.
I doubt they last very long, probably just long enough for “Street cred” to be obtained.
Another screwed up old lady. Hasn’t got a clue what the hell she is doing.
We have a woke DA.
A criminal got caught with a Glock switch.
DA let him go and didn’t tell the Feds.
Criminal shot a policeman dead not long after he was released.
Voting record with men hasn’t been much better.
We need REAL conservatives.
What is a Glock switch?
Turns a Glock to full auto.
I don’t see it as a screw up. If a glock switch can be prosecuted as a state crime instead of federal, it keeps the feds at bay so to speak. The prosecution can be done in house and kept at the state level instead of getting the feds involved.
Was it the bumpstocks trump banned.
It turns a Glock pistol into a machine gun.
