Well, we once again have new data that shreds the anti-gun Left and their narrative about firearm-related violence during the COVID pandemic. Some nine million Americans became new gun owners. That’s huge. Gun sales are through the roof. Once again, Joe Biden and the Democrats show they’re expert gun salespersons. With the Biden administration aiming to tweak the ATF regulation of pistol stabilizing braces, you can bet the rush to stock up has only intensified. This rule would put 10-40 million Americans in legal jeopardy. There is no grandfather clause. All firearms targeted with this new regulation must either be registered or turned over. it’s the largest gun confiscation and registration effort ever. It’s the groundwork for the mass confiscation effort anti-Gun Democrat lust for, they’re just waiting for expanded background checks to build a national database, but I digress.
New data shows that there is no relation to the spike in gun violence with the increase in gun sales (via The Guardian):

When we talk anti-gun crap and anything that counters their argument, they simply revert to this:

“Reasoning will never make a man correct an opinion, which by reasoning he never acquired.” -Attributed to Jonathan Swift
How do we know this?
Their narrative doesn’t matter. The greatest source of untimely death in the last 120 years has been from government (not including war) and street thugs tolerated or used by government.
I have a natural inalienable right to the use of common weapons to preserve and protect my life. The second amendment does not GRANT me this right, it recognizes that it exists.
Eff their narrative.
SWAG from nics reports?
And the 2nd (although recently declared NOT absolute, or any of the amendments, by pedo joe) was supposed to prevent anyone from ‘INFRINGING’ on your rights. Hell, CCWs are an infringement. The batf is an infringement. 4473-—— You know the drill.
Triggered snowflake term for "gun stock" or if you prefer "shoulder stock."
I know every single fact about gun “violence” but they don’t care. These people are fascists that want your means of self defense...period! They have no intention of listening to us. So I simply tell them “ you can listen to the facts or try to take them...what will it be”?
The anti-gun movement will end when Jesus returns and removes evil from the world. We won’t need guns after that.
Strange thing, I was listening to Larry Elder yesterday and he had LA county sheriff villanueva on and he stated that “ghost” guns were a major problem for them. HUH? Sounded odd to me. Maybe I’m wrong because I’m not in the middle of it but that seems a stretch. Anyone? Bueller?
You sure you didn’t miss one or two? And, don’t forget that pedo joe declared that if it’s a choice between ‘truth’ or facts, they’ll choose ‘truth’. HUH? Facts? Pfffttttt! :-}
Oh believe me...not all but all the important ones like our “gun violence” levels are close to that of Europe...yes, comparing apples to apples it’s very close. Also our “gun violence” levels are lower than in the 1950s. I could go on and on but you get the point...they don’t care.
Our side’s greatest ongoing mistake is assuming the battle can be wrong by reasoned argument which our opponents will accept as a decisive win.
Their strategy is ongoing weight of accusations hurtled. Make the first blow, be on to a different attack vector before an effective defense is used.
Sure a spike in ownership was not followed by a spike in crime; no debate, just on to the proliferation of loophole abuse of stabilizing braces!
Unfortunately, ”pistol stabilizing brace” was exploiting a loophole to avoid laws regarding short barreled rifles. Wasn’t an invention of progressive snowflakes.
And in the last two months... (Nov. 2012 and Dec. 2012)
And it continues...
And there is more...
And more...
And yet more...
And more and more and...
We just keep buyin' more...
And we bought more more more...
And more and more and more...
Could it be? More?
More Americans buy more guns...
We just love guns...
Buy a gun, you'll be in Hogg Heaven!
Another month, another record!
Will the record breaking ever stop?
Looks like it will never stop.
It will never stop. :)
Gun sales records AGAIN!
KEEP FLAPPIN' YOUR LIPS, DEMONRATS! WE'LL BUY MILLIONS MORE. ;-)
That’s OK ... I put a cloth mask on my pistols. :)
If NICS knows whether a person undergoing a background check has purchased before, then they have to be archiving the data in violation of federal law. Right?
