CHECK THE KANSAS GUN CRACKDOWN!!!



Like it or not, the effort to take away guns earns high praise in an allegedly "Conservative" Red State:

Kansas gun prosecutions ranked 3rd in nation

Of course the mostly federal effort is bolstered by hopes that getting rid of guns will reduce crime by disarming criminals:

"Federal prosecutors in Kansas filed gun-related charges against 447 people last year, up nearly 85 percent from the average of the four previous years. Firearms prosecutions nationwide remained relatively flat during that time, with 11,728 defendants charged last year."

Vigilant readers will scroll down on this article and note that a focus on gun shows is also a part of this crackdown as holding a firearm moves closer to becoming a privilege and not a right.

try actually reading stories you link. said...

actually you are exactly wrong. Kansas perused felons with firearm charges and other federal violations, thus the high ranking. Those werent legal gun owners but federal criminals. Um ,sort of like illegal immigrants.
get it?

Shouldn't be "prosecutions", but rather "persecutions"...

These are reasonable prosecutions.

That's the TKC m.o.
Publish stories and links that fit your narrative or publish stories and links that don't yet quote them like they do.
He's got the liberal media doctrine down pat.

If you think those numbers are impressive, just wait until Soetoro and Holder are prosecuted - along with all the others responsible - for "Operation Fast and Furious".

Now that's a gun-running prosecution of career criminalus actualus.

"But a massive firearms trafficking case that Grissom didn’t talk about at the presentation highlights the far-reaching reach of gun investigations in Kansas.

In that case, 12 people are charged with conspiracy to buy firearms at gun shows in Kansas and Oklahoma and to then smuggle the weapons to Mexico, Nicaragua and Guatemala. Some of the weapons also were also allegedly unlawfully sold to convicted felons and illegal immigrants, according to court documents."


Hmmm....

What about Barry and Eric - and their Traveling Gun Show To Mexico?
In a rational world, their gun-running to Mexican Drug Cartels would be a top priority prosecution.

This is just a bit more serious that old Billy Clinton shooting Monica with a load of white bucksnot.

Liberals don't get that NRA supports law enforcement keeping guns out of the hands of criminals.

Remember: guns don't kill people, blacks do. No "N" was used in this remark.

Good old Kansas. Where a 65 year old man who was once convicted (at the age of 18) of the misdemeanor of slapping his girlfriend may never, ever have a gun, but a felony conviction for being the head of a multi million dollar ponzi scheme allows the felon to own all the guns he wants. This is your big bad ultra left wing federal proprietorial tax dollars at work.
