Time To Ban Military-Style Assault Weapons In PA
"It's time that we stand up with a single voice and say, enough. No one needs to have a military-style assault weapon. They just don't," said Santarsiero, who was joined at a press conference in Lower Makefield by political, religious, community and local school leaders from throughout Central and Lower Bucks County.
"The time has come for us to take a stand and make this a reality. This is about protecting each other. This is about protecting our loved ones. This is about protecting our community. And above all, this is about protecting the kids," said Santarsiero.
On May 24 the nation was rocked with the news that an 18-year-old gunman armed with an AR-15 had made his way into Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, and killed 19 children and two teachers before being shot and killed by authorities.
And a lot more learning to reload.
Poor Sappy/Truby ....what the Senate has agreed to pass is a real yawner (fortunately).Oh look Sappy trying to meme!
Nolte: Of Course, Hollywood Romanticizes Guns and Shooting People
Last week, actor Matthew McConaughey stood before the cameras and proclaimed that millions of innocent Americans should lose their Second Amendment rights over something someone else did.
This makes about as much sense as telling me I can’t drive because someone else got into an accident, but that’s McConaughey’s argument.
Naturally, because Breitbart News is Breitbart News, we ridiculed the stupidity of his gun control arguments and his shameless, wild-eyed hypocrisy.
In movies and TV, McConaughey has repeatedly glamourized the use of firearms, often as a necessary problem solver—you shoot a guy, problem solved.
McConaughey’s hypocrisy on this issue is even worse than that. After two decades of running around romanticizing guns, he stood in the White House briefing room and lectured the media about the “sensationalized media coverage” of mass shootings and shooters.
Well, give him some credit. He at least understands that media indeed affects behavior, because, of course it does. But guess who’s pretending not to understand that? Sulu and Wonder Woman aka George Takei and Lynda Carter.

Sulu and Wonder Woman want it both ways. They want you and I to live under the tyranny of gun-grabbing while they not only enjoy the artistic freedom to glamorize shooting people. | Entertainment
Rep. Massie says 'good guys' with guns stopping 'bad guys' is 'inconvenient truth' for Dems
Following Cicilline’s statement, Massie pushed back and submitted a list to the congressional record of incidents where "good guys" with guns stopped "bad guys" from carrying out mass shootings.
"The Democrats – I don’t know if they’re just in willful ignorance of what happens in this country or they’re being deceptive today, but I would like to introduce into the record a list of cases where concealed handgun permit holders have likely stopped mass public shootings. This is from crimeresearch.org, and it’s published May 27th, 2022," Massie explained.
Massie’s list of cases included an incident that occurred in the last couple of weeks in Charleston, West Virginia where a man with an AR-15 opened fire on a graduation party but was stopped after being shot by a woman who was legally carrying a gun.
Woke Capital Has A Plan To Take Your Guns
Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance (ESG) is gaining steam, as many Leftists recognize the tactic as a backdoor by which to implement their climate change agenda, enforce racial quotas, and promote diversity. Woke capital’s next agenda item for ESG investing is gun control.
A 2005 report commissioned by the United Nations claimed that “integrating ESG considerations into an investment analysis so as to more reliably predict financial performance is clearly permissible and is arguably required in all jurisdictions.” Since then, ESG investing has been a handy weapon in the toolbox of woke capital, gaining the emphatic endorsement of billionaire CEOs such as Blackrock’s Larry Fink.
Gov. Phil Murphy: We Have Strict Gun Control In NJ But We Need More
"And so we’ve got gun reform package 3.0. We’ve already passed two significant and signed two significant packages of legislation, but we need to do more. Whether it’s how you store your ammunition, how old you should be to own a long gun, you should just like you take a lesson to learn how to drive a car, you should do the same thing before you’re purchasing a gun," he continued. "Common sense stuff."
Murphy said because guns that are used crime originate out of the state most of the time, the rest of the country needs to enact similar gun control laws.
"Eighty five percent of the crime guns that are retrieved in New Jersey come from out of state. And so as strong as we might be in terms of our laws, we’re not an island. We need the country to move forward as well. So we need both and God willing we will get that."M

Sounds to me like they need a new Governor.
They almost had one.
