It's a new year but local progressive arguments against firearms and the 2nd Amendment repeat a flimsy premise that's politically charged and hasn't yielded any tangible results.
To wit . . .
KANSAS CITY MAYOR Q LEADS LAWSUIT AGAINST ATF THAT BLAMES GUNS FOR HISTORIC VIOLENCE!!!
It's a distraction at best. Critics of the mayor might call it yet another attack on local freedoms and a preview of emboldened politicos waging culture war amid the upcoming Biden Administration.
What's more important is that Kansas City elected leaders seem far more comfortable in courtrooms arguing against constitutional rights rather than working in neighborhoods to help find community-based solutions to homegrown violence.
Check the deets . . .
The complaint, which was filed in U.S. District Court in New York, alleged the ATF didn’t show enough oversight when the agency granted a license to firearms maker Jimenez Arms. That company was also the subject of a separate lawsuit filed by Kansas City leaders in April 2020. The company has since filed for bankruptcy, but according to the lawsuit, it has reopened under the name JA.
Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas joined others in a teleconference organized by Everytown for Gun Safety. Mayor Lucas said countless Jimenez firearms are found at scenes of violent crime in Kansas City. Mayor Lucas also said that manufacturer’s low prices make the guns easy to buy, use and discard.
“We have a supply problem with people who are not following legal processes, to transfer guns, to sell guns and get them into Kansas City,” Mayor Lucas said.
Nevertheless . . .
Whilst this argument doesn't sway voters in red state Missouri and Kansas. On the national level there is a growing "opportunity" for legislative progress in cutting back 2nd Amendment fredoms with the Biden Administration at the helm.
The fight for/against gun rights is likely to make a reassurance amid Democratic Party control of the White House, Senate And Congress.
Meanwhile, the bravado of gun rights activists seems to have faded.

And so, this debate is no longer theoretical but seeks to disarm locals at the street level in hopes of reducing local violence.

ReplyDelete^^^ Stupid.
DeleteThis is what happens when you elect a law lecturer.
DeleteBetter idea: Sue Quinton's irresponsible ass for letting this get so out of control.
ReplyDeleteWhy not sue Jean Petersucker Baker for letting so many violent criminals run loose?
ReplyDeleteQuinton is doing the right thing. The gun manufacturers are making a deadly product, they should be held accountable.
ReplyDeleteLike they won't pick up a knife? Use a car? Molotov cocktails? See Europe.

ReplyDeleteWhen Quinton realized he was packing a snub-nosed barrel compared to most, he tried to sue in court, but was rejected as a manufacturer's defect!!!

ReplyDeletestop with the bullshit mcdumbo, go after your people, you don’t have to worry about your political future because it’s over in kc and most likely in Missouri. You’re done buttboi. Go back to Lawrence where you can sleep in your car like a good little drunk negro ok!
10:22 that’s a normal night in killer kc so.....
ReplyDeleteAmong U.S. prisoners who possessed a gun during their offense, 90% did not obtain it from a retail source.

ReplyDeleteDemocrat greedy weasel Trial Lawyers looking to scam taxpayers by trying to blame the govt.for black lawlessness and violence..
Good info @10:59. THANK YOU for coming with the facts instead of an agenda!
ReplyDeleteThere has never been a gun problem. It is a people problem more specifically a cultural problem mainly of Black people. Even though the words are seldom uttered out loud, statistics SCREAM the facts only to be muted by liberal media and liberal politicians. This should be front page news everytime a murder occurs.
ReplyDeleteMaking a mystery out of the source of the problem or misdirecting blame is akin to eating ice cream topped with turds and then complaining your breath smells bad because of the ice cream, each and everytime. Dalton.
It is democrap policies that is the problem. The dummocrats have ran KC and Jackson County for 80 years.
ReplyDeleteThe guns that J.A. makes are cheap zinc-potmetel framed .22 and .25 cal pocket pistols. They are unreliable and jam. Kinda worthless compared to a Glock
ReplyDeleteNRA morally bankrupt
ReplyDeleteApparently these cheap mean ole guns are forcing themselves into the hands of innocent church going folks and then making them go shit faced crazy robbin and killin.
ReplyDelete11:18 Dalton, you're racist for pointing out shit stinks.
ReplyDeleteIMPEACH BIDEN!
ReplyDelete^^^ Wait two years and you'll probably get your wish.
ReplyDeleteAmerica does not have a gun problem, it has a black problem. Remove blacks from the stats and America's murder rate is as low as any Scandinavian White county.
ReplyDeleteIt's a black genetic and culture problem. They can't handle living in a White civilized country.
Q is an anti-gun freeloader? I did NAZI that one coming!
ReplyDelete
ReplyDeleteGood luck with this, it's like saying the gun killed all by itself. Who we blame here is Quinton Lucas ans the black people in our nation who are not civilized. What Lucas wants is for blacks to have guns and whites not to have guns. He is trying to start a race war just like Pelosi. KC has a terrorist on it's hands and you need to do something about it. The blacks love it because they will be protected from punishment and all other citizens will be without guns. Lock and Load KC trouble is coming!!!!!!!
Are we suing the black fire captain that was selling guns illegally to his spook felons
ReplyDeleteSAY BYBY TO YOUR ABILITY TO PROTECT YOURSELVES FROM YOUR COMMY GOV. AND THE KILLERS IN KILLER CITY
ReplyDeleteEven the most cursory glace at the demographics of both the perpetrators and victims and the geographical locations of the homicides in KCMO makes it clear that the vast majority of murders are black-on-black crimes.
ReplyDeleteBut Lucas, just like the rest of the electeds, faith "leaders", corporate cowards, clueless academics, and SJW suburbanites, just can't find the courage to even identify, much less seriously address, the problem.
Slavery.
Statues.
Street names.
Every and any excuse imaginable.
But never the truth.
Sad.

ReplyDeleteTypical, typical. Blame the guns and not the people who shoot them.
ReplyDeleteI used to be in the NRA. But quit. The NRA is run by a guy that pisses everyone off and lines his pockets with the firm's cash. Like 64 million bucks worth of cash. Only a idiot would be in it now. Back in the early 1970's it was more a hunters geared organization.
