I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again that all of these mass shootings that occurred just as Democrats start to push their anti gun bills, is looking less coincidental with each one. We know that leftists will do anything to get more power and with federal law enforcement agencies seeming to be aiding and abetting their masters, false flags have to be investigated. The problem is that the fox is guarding the chicken coop.
Obama Administration Term Three in progress. Still waiting for cleanup on Term One.
“Biden announced this month several executive actions to address gun violence, including a move to crack down on “ghost guns,” homemade firearms that lack serial numbers used to trace them and are often purchased without a background check.”
You cannot purchase a home made firearm under any circumstance. Buying, selling or even giving one away one is a crime.
Only registered manufacturers may produce and sell firearms. All such firearms must have serial numbers indelibly marked on them.
How many “ghost guns” have been used in street crime or mass shootings? The government is afraid of ghost guns because they may be created solely to use against the government.
NW. I wouldn’t be surprised to find that most “ghost guns” are buried with several full magazines in airtight, plastic tubes covered in cosmoline.
The Supreme Court agrees to take up a major gun rights case. In NY State Rifle & Pistol Assoc. v. Corlett, the justices will consider the extent to which the Second Amendment protects the right to carry guns outside the home for self-defense. https://www.scotusblog.com/
The big push seems to be coming from D. C. Mayor’s office. They claim a huge percentage of the guns seized in the city are ghost guns.
Appears that a company was selling an 80% kit to make Glock handguns. The kit contained the lower receiver/pistol grip portion as well as the mill ends and drill bits to do the finishing work. ATF raided them based on the DC complaint.
Nothing illegal about selling 80% lowers, or drill bits, or bundling them, but that doesn’t stop the federal government when it’s on a holy crusade to aid Democrat politicians.
That’s why Biden wrote his recent executive order, to give the ATF some cover for its actions and also for its soon-to-come recommendation that buying an 80% lower with drill bits makes you a firearms manufacturer who must be registered with and licensed by ATF, same as Remington or Colt or Baretta.
I predict it’s the start of a shell game wherein regulators will draw the line at a certain percentage and kit manufacturers will sell kits one percent less complete to avoid the new law, same game the IRS plays with tax lawyers and equally as useless at stopping actual crime.
The low hanging fruit is to prosecute people, hard, for crimes committed with a gun, and for illegal purchase & posession of firearms.
And we know why the dems don’t want to do tht, don’t we?
So instead they will blame their failure to end the violence in their cities on white guys living in the country.
Huh, 80% of guns seized in DC are ghost guns. Why, one might guess that law-abiding people in the city (a) want to defend themselves, (b) see horrendous crime rates there, and (c) the city’s gun control ordinances prevent that. And then (d), the city apparently is wasting a lot of time harassing otherwise law-abiding citizens instead of arresting criminals, who never bothered to obey the city’s gun control laws in the first place. Kinda like Chicago, really.
BB. I’d bet the majority of guns recovered in DC are mass produced, commercially available weapons that have been ghosted by use of a grinding wheel.
While decent, civilized states are protecting the freedom and Constitutional rights of their citizens, the poor saps in Minnesota brace for more deprivation.
From the excellent “Alpha News”
“Both of the Twin Cities have closed streets for coronavirus.
The closures, which are already in effect, will continue “through mid-July” in St. Paul, according to a press release, and through the end of May in Minneapolis, per the city website. St. Paul says it closed four roads to make space for “physically distant outdoor activities.” Minneapolis says it chose to shut down two streets to create “more space for social distancing.”
Students and staff at Macalester College in St. Paul are required to get the coronavirus vaccine this summer before they return to campus. There has been debate on the national level about the legality and ethics of such a mandate.
Twin Cities citizens will also likely have to keep wearing masks all summer. The mask mandate “does not have an end date,” according to the Minnesota Department of Health.”
The situation at Macalester is interesting. The leftist elite is all onboard with *you* getting the bug juice, but little Zoe? I suspect there will be push back.
We’ve all heard of “Endless summer”, now get ready for Endless Face Diapers. By this time next year, you’ll be able to identify residents of leftist shit holes by the acne all over their cheeks and chins.
DPS, just declare all your activities “peaceful protest” and you are free to go. Free to go to the restaurant – park your “I hate whytee” plackard by your chair; free to go to the park – attach the placard to the back of your shirt; free to go to the MOA – attach the placard to the red wagon as you pull your kiddies along; and for masks? just tell Karen to shut her white privileged™ trap. You can tell the same to the cops, they will only be too glad to buy you a donut.
Pete, maybe. I seem to remember that you can figure out the serial numbers by doing an acid bath–the stamping process for the serial numbers etches differently than the standard metal.
OK, so we have either “DC investigators aren’t using forensic techniques used for 40 years at least”, “DC police are prosecuting the otherwise law abiding instead of real criminals”, or most likely, both and more.
Unless it has changed, DC has ONE FFL in the city. Who offices in City Hall, near the police armory. If I remember the story from the reporter who got her permit and reported on all the hoops she had to jump through, this FFL has no inventory, won’t sell a gun to a citizen, but only deals with transfers and police purchases, and is open a few hours, two days a week. Not many legal guns coming to DC with that system.

That story contains a grevious factual error:
“Biden announced this month several executive actions to address gun violence, including a move to crack down on “ghost guns,” homemade firearms that lack serial numbers used to trace them and are often purchased without a background check.”
