If the corporatists succeed in making arms regulation into a Culture War (again), they will win the public debate (again). This is not about urban liberals and Muslims vs. rural gun owners. It's about gun regulation that meets our collective need for safety from gun accidents and gun crime, as well as the needs of law-abiding gun owners. Including farmers, sports shooters, collectors, and so on.

#GunRegulation

“The people who think that bearing arms is central to maintaining American rights are the same people who tried to overturn the 2020 presidential election by storming the United States Capitol because they do not command the votes to put their policies in place through the exercise of law outlined in the U.S. Constitution.” #lettersfromanamerican #HeatherCoxRichardson #uspolitics #gunregulation https://open.substack.com/pub/heathercoxrichardson/p/february-9-2025?r=10cse3&utm_medium=ios

#SCOTUS seems poised to uphold a major #GunRegulation imposed by the #Biden admin that requires #BackgroundChecks, #SerialNumbers & sales #records for the nearly untraceable #firearms known as #GhostGuns.

A majority of the justices seemed skeptical during oral argument on Tues of the position taken by gun owners, parts makers & #2A groups: that the govt exceeded its authority in 2022 when it imposed new rules for the weapons.

@timo21 it depends because #Bruen says no-ish, #Rahimi says yes-ish. Basically, IMO, this is good because it didn’t rule that domestic abusers have an unfettered right to #guns, but it doesn’t clear up how to devise, apply or enforce any given federal or state #GunRegulation.

"To start, you need a permit to import firearms and any gun retailer needs to keep records of who they've sold gun to. However, if I then buy a gun and sell it to somebody else, I don't need to keep records of that transaction. All I need to say is that they showed me their firearms licence. This is called straw-buying, and it's how lots of firearms have ended up in criminal hands."

The U.S. Postal Service USPS does mail shotguns and rifles - even for non-licensees. However, it MUST NOT mail alcoholic beverages. Wine, beer, and spirits are deemed "injurious articles." If one still tries w/o declaring one might go to jail. #gunrights #gunregulation #wine #wineshipping #alcoholregulation

At this point the only way to safe from deadly domestic violence is to kill them first. I'm open to arguments otherwise but I see none without a magic wand to implement much needed #GunRegulation.

As mass shootings climb in the U.S., Michiganders are determined to end the violence

“We cannot keep living like this,” the governor continued. “As a nation, we must keep working toward common sense solutions to prevent these tragedies. Michiganders are standing with Texans.”

@Holberg Frankly I think any legislative body that considers arming teachers blah blah blah should, as a group be required to look at this article and be shown the images of Sandy Hook and other shootings involving AR-15 style weapons. As in, forced to see what they do. puke bags gladly provided. No one leaves the room. #gunregulation

What used to keep people from just shooting the nearest annoying person? Fear of hell? Fear of prison? Fear of them being a faster shot? Fear of losing the pretty-good/good life you have?

#Editorial: #Michigan #Republicans are saying they'll vote no on #RagFlag #legislation, "it’s still a due process issue." Complete BS! An #ExtremeRiskOrder is ordered by a JUDGE, & only used when there is PROBABLE CAUSE of harm to self or other. Getting fair treatment through the normal judicial system IS THE DEFINITION OF DUE PROCESS! The #GOP is agst any #GunRegulation for the very sake of being agst ALL #guncontrol.

If government buildings experienced even 1/10th as many mass shootings as US schools do we'd have sensible gun regulations in a heart beat.

It is a solemn day in Canada.

🌹 33 years ago today, 14 women were murdered at L’École Polytechnique by a misogynist.

🌹 Since 1970, over 4,000 Indigenous women are missing or murdered.

🌹 Every 6 days, a woman in Canada is killed by her intimate partner.

🌹 Violence against women hurts everyone.
