Fox News ^ | 8/22/2022 | Kirstin Garriss, CMG Washington News Bureau

Posted on 08/22/2022 4:00:24 PM PDT by Right Wing Vegan

With this latest effort, the Firearm Industry Crime and Trafficking Accountability Act would require every firearm manufacturer to create a monitoring system to track crimes committed with guns they have sold, using ATF gun trace data.

Another bill is the Firearm Industry Fairness Act which would impose a 20% tax on the total revenue for manufacturers who make assault weapons and high-capacity magazines

How about a house oversight committee on LGBT organizations and planned parenthood?

Lots of posturing leading up to the midterms but these won’t really get very far.

Since the police seem unable to enforce the law, they might as well punish innocent citizens for the crimes committed.

Danger zone.

Next are car makers, liquor companies, bars. What about marijuana stores and EV car dealers after fires and self-driving after sailing through busy intersections? Or covid jab pharma dealers.

Or is it just unpopular gun ones?

Let’s hold cities and states accountable for any gun free zone. Those things are deadly by design.

But don’t vote for Boobio; he’s for amnesty (or maybe he was, anyhow).

Do I need the sarcasm tag here?

Firearms manufacturers provide a product that works, virtually every time.

Congress provides things that largely do not do what they are supposed to, cause harm, and always drive up prices.

I demand that we hold congress to account for our laws. This account INCLUDES the death penalty. Hell, our grid couldn’t stand the load of providing sufficient energy to give the congress-critters the “account” they deserve.

I hope all the progressives shout loudly for their version of a Stalinist paradise - maybe that will wake up some of the people who don’t pay much attention but vote “D” out of habit.

Is this part of the Jan.6, FBI home invasion raid plot to enrage good people? Followed by slaughter of the patriots?

Aside from the waste of every manufacturer duplicating effort and doing the same thing, it's funny that they include "using ATF gun trace data".

Hello? Democrat idiot, the fed is already tracing crime weapons...

Well, “they” need to be inclusive and roll every manufacturer of everything into the mix. You know, the new “DIE” wokenista initiative of ‘diversity/inclusion/equity’ for ALL things. Fidiots!

When they do the same thing for automobiles and their makers I'll get behind this.
Let the squealing pig contest begin.

They forgot the sudden school shooting or a maniac in the city wounding dozens and killing some so people will sob and say “Somebody, somebody has to do something, whatever it is, somewhere. Today. For the children.”

We aren’t going to be free from a continuous assault on our rights until these people are hanged. That’s simply the truth.

OK
Where did 9mm Luger Parabellum come from?
Germany.
Sue them.

And where were ‘guns’ first invented?
China, 9th and 10th centuries.
Sue them.

Meanwhile.
Will the tracking system track self defense, either with or without shooting, and credit them against criminal shooting?

Maybe their monitoring system could be as effective as the Covid tracking system - ha ha ha.

Let’s see… Congress arms terrorists with automatic weapons, ammunition, bombs, claymore mines and rockets, but are committed to confiscating guns from Americans.
