These Senators Tried To Implement Gun Control During The COVID-19 Situation

If there is one thing that anti-gunner politicians are known for beyond their blind zealot belief that guns are evil, it is that they will use whatever means they can, honest or dishonest, to try to get more gun control implemented.

Now, to be fair, there are probably some people who actually think that getting rid of guns will save lives. Those people are just ignorant.

But then you have people in Congress who have access to real data about the impact on overall violence when guns are banned (it goes up when guns are banned), but these members of Congress still push to pass gun control. Either these people don’t actually care about violence (which is evil), or they don’t care about the truth (which means they’re psychopathic), or they are willfully ignorant about guns (which means they shouldn’t be representing anyone because they are knowingly clueless).

Sadly, some of these anti-gunner politicians tried to sneak more gun control into effect during the current Coronavirus situation. The NRA Institute for Legislative Action (ILA) gives us the details:

On April 2, a group of anti-gun U.S. Senators led by Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.), Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) and Sen. Edward Markey (D-Mass.) sent a letter to the directors of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives demanding a crackdown on gun sales nationwide. Citing the recent surge in gun sales, the senators urged the agencies to adopt policies long sought by gun control advocates.

The NRA ILA continues:

As Blumenthal could not obtain his goal of zero gun sales, he and his senate colleagues have encouraged the FBI and ATF to encumber prospective gun buyers. Their letter asked the FBI and ATF to do this in two important ways.

First, the senators asked ATF to issue guidance urging Federal Firearms Licensees (FFLs) to forego the three-day safety-valve provision and suspend delayed firearms transfers indefinitely […].

Second, the senators have urged the FBI to diminish protections against the creation of a federal gun or gun owner registry by encouraging them to retain firearm transaction data longer than permissible under federal regulations.

So, basically, these Senators want to prevent as many people as possible from being able to purchase firearms, and they want to try to get the ATF to track gun purchasers for an even longer period of time.

It’s absolutely unacceptable.

The good news is that these people haven’t tried to get any new gun control legislation passed during the Cornovirus situation, but keep your eyes out. They’ll take any opportunity that they can get.

  1. It all about CONTROL.. that plane and simple.if u have not got through your head yet!! U need to remove your head from your AS*

  2. Again a pure case of TREASON and TERRORISM by these liberal socialist as they try to UNDERMINE the 2nd amendment of the CONSTITUTION the RIGHTS for AMERICAN CITIZENS (legal). This is also a push by these people to form a government of TYRANNY against the citizens, just like China, Cuba, Venezuela, N. Korea and many sections of Africa. All DICTATORSHIPS!

  3. These anti-Americans need to be voted out. How even the Dimms that vote for them can’t see how our rights are being trampled on by just about every Dimm, be it a governor, a senator, rep, or local mayor.

  4. When will the American people ever learn about the Socialist Dems. These Socialists are border line communists. They have repeatedly given support in speech and limited actions to not only communist countries but also terrorist regimes. We, as US Citizens, need to recognize the SDEMS-Socialist Dems from their actions and traitorist speaking. They are and every shall be anti-Constitution; and anti-America, and anti-trust, as well as anti-Gun. Anything good for the US is bad for them. The SDEMS ARE THE ENEMY OF FREEDOM LOVING PEOPLE. Look at the lock-down procedures of SDEMS governors. Socialism in its stench and most vile example. Republicans use these examples and comparisons with the Republican governor of South Dakota.

    • The difference between A COMMUNIST and A SOCIALIST (IS AN ELECTION). The most cruel and murderous state leaders in history campaigned as Socialists but when elected murdered millions of their people to maintain their power. Linnen (Russia) 1910 9 million followed by Stalin ? Mao (china) 1950s 12 million

    Any politician who is anti gun should not be allowed to have a permit to carry, buy a gun, have a gun in their house , car Etc. or have body guards who carry. Just VOTE RED SAVE THE CONSTITUTION, BILL OF RIGHTS AND THE USA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  6. Start with your guns and your armed security details, Senators. Unless you think your lives are more valuable than mine.
    Trump team 2020!

  7. Hey man, I would really appreciate it if these IDIOTS would just spend more time on this corvid virus! Guns have nothing to do with it!I wish that they would use facts and data. Which clearly shows that people who want to hurt others WILL!! If they can’t use a gun they will use whatever else they can find! Cars, knives, sticks, stones, explosives, and even a frying pan! If you think that taking guns from law-abiding citizens who have guns to protect themselves and others who can’t defend themselves! Shame on them all! NOT TO MENTION OUR 2ND AMENDMENT RIGHTS!! come on now if you’re really that naive to think that taking guns will stop violence then I reckon that they probably have nice bunkers to move their families to. And then the rest of us are going to be here stuck without any protection from the idiots who don’t even own a registered weapon! I truly believe that this is what the writers of our constitution had in mind when they made it 2nd on the list! Just my opinion!

  9. As every one can see the democrats only care about their agenda no matter what is happening gun control, mail in voting, money for illegals, open borders … The hell with the virus that kills people …

    Says a lot about they’re mindset doesn’t it?

  11. In order to conquer a Nation first You have to disarm the People = Adolf Hitler , If You wan`t a Gun join the SS = Heinrich Himmler , Political Power comes out of the barrel of a Gun = Mao Tse Tung
