Sen. Bob Casey: Easier to Get an AR-15 than a Coronavirus Test
Breitbart.com ^ | 3/13/2020 | AWR Hawkins

Posted on 03/14/2020 3:29:14 PM PDT by rktman

On Friday Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA) tweeted that it is easier to get an AR-15 rifle than a coronavirus test.

He did not outline the steps for getting a coronavirus test, but the process for getting an AR-15 involves:

Going to store to find rifle Showing proper ID to a retailer Undergoing an FBI background check Undergoing waiting period (where applicable) For example, there is a 10-day waiting period in California.

On February 19, 2018, Breitbart News reported CBS News’ claim that it was easier to buy an “assault rifle” than anti-diarrhea medicine in bulk in Florida. They made this claim days after a the Parkland high school shooting, in which an attacker killed 17 people with a rifle he acquired via background check.

The acquisition of such a rifle in Florida involves a three-day waiting period.

Bob Casey is a piece of schiff. I have no idea how my fellow Pennsylvanians keep on reelecting him. He is basically a ghost in this part of the state since he knows conservatives hate him.

How cute! I guess he is trying out a new writer. What an embarrassment to the decent people of Pennsylvania!

The tests are hard to get now—but that will change soon. In a week they will become common.

The problem with his logic is that he wants to make it as easy to get a COVID-19 test as it is to buy disinfectant wipes at Target. If you are afraid and want it you should just be able to get it.

How’s that working out America?

>>I can buy an AR15 in a drive-through?<<

“ATF should be the name of a convenience store, not a Federal bureau.”

I remember we had drive thru liquor & tobacco stores in the Florida panhandle not so many years ago. Just need to add firearms.

“A 12-pack of Miller, a can of Skoal long cut mint, an M1911, and three boxes of .45 ACP, please. Oh, and a cherry Big Gulp.”

BINGO! A Republican effort to erode this turd’s popularity needs to be ongoing OR he will be Senator for life from PA.

Start here. He claims to be Pro Life like his father. He votes in lock step with every other leftist in the Senate.

I would start by using his Father’s words against his his doofus son.

Q for Silent Bob: Senator, have you gotten tested? Inquiring minds want to know.

Here in the snowy northwest getting good test results for my lastest AR is harder to get than the Carona test, I don’t need the virus test. I want to play with my new toy. I don’t give a damn about hysterical BS. It’s all about hand sanitizer and toilet paper. /s

Which is good because the way things are trending you will need an AR-15 to buy a roll of toilet paper...

Well on one hand there’s no 10-day waiting period after approval for a coronavirus test, and on another AR-15s actually exist in similar numbers to demand.
