The FBI Just Made a Gun Control Announcement That Has People in Shock​

Gun owners need to watch out for the FBI.
They are not friends of the Second Amendment.
And the FBI shocked people with a sudden announcement about gun control.
While most Democrats reacted to the Trump assassination attempt with some degree of humanity, expressing sympathy and condemning violence, there were a few who tried to use it to promote gun control.
After all, Democrat politicians have been trained repeatedly over the years to take advantage of any violent event that takes place with a gun to push new gun restrictions.
Gun control, of course, isn’t the solution to what happened at Trump’s rally. The solution is for the Secret Service to stop doing a sloppy job protecting presidential candidates.
But the FBI is laser focused on pushing gun control on the American people, and they are not shy about using Trump’s assassination attempt for that purpose.
They are now blaming guns and gun accessories for the shooting.
And gun owners need to watch out, as there is a real possibility that federal agencies will try to push new restrictions in the wake of this shooting.


According to The Truth About Guns, “If you thought former U.S. Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle’s ‘roof was too steep for snipers’ excuse was a lame one—and it was—you’ll love Biden administration FBI Director Chris Wray’s excuse for how the would-be assassin got up on the roof ‘unnoticed’ prior to shooting former President Donald Trump in the ear.
“It seems the reason was that the AR-15 the would-be assassin used had a dreaded collapsible stock, making it easier to get on the roof with a rifle unnoticed.”
Perhaps this is a precursor to a coordinated attempt to ban collapsible stocks, using the assassination attempt as a pretext.
It would be a brazen move by the FBI and their allies in the Biden administration, and a very dangerous one.
Here is what Wray said: “I can tell you, which may be relevant to your questions, that, um, and I don’t think this has been reported yet, that the [Trump assassin’s] weapon had a collapsible stock which could explain, uh, why it might have been less easy for people to observe.
“Because one of the things that we’re finding is the first people to observe him with the weapon was when he was already on the roof and we haven’t yet found anyone with any first-hand observation of him with the weapon walking around beforehand. So that doesn’t mean he wasn’t, obviously, but the collapsible stock is potentially a very significant feature that might be relevant to that.”
It is sad, but not surprising, that a powerful federal agent like Wray would blame an inanimate object for the obvious failures of the Secret Service.
They knew that the shooter posed a threat, regardless of what kind of accessories he had, and they should have taken decisive action to stop him.
These types of excuses, which may be a pretext for gun control, are getting very tired.
Typical dems. I didn't do anything wrong, you have to change what you do.
 
The head of the ATF knows nothing about guns. Neither does the director of the FBI. A collapsing stock changes the length about 4 to 5 inches. The overall length is still over 25 inches. Wray may be compensating for something.
 
Isn't there an sbr case in the supreme Court right now?

there are a ton of cases bouncing around the courts because judges are ignoring the SCOTUS rulings. at this point i am convinced the goal is to keep stuff in the courts for decades because they know they are doing things incorrectly. until their is consequences for the stupid it will continue because the govt has unlimited tax payer funds to spend the time on these things.

Also kicking the can down the road until Dems can pack the SCOTUS to "fix" the inconvenient "bias" toward following our Constitution :mad3:

Isn't that just how it works?

Legislators pass laws they know won't pass the judicial, but they still get their shiny new boot for a decade until someone with standing can get it to the high courts.
 
He would be way better off hiring a personal security team himself because the government provided "protection" is clearly not doing their jobs very well. I wouldn't trust my life with them for a split second after the assassination attempt and the clown world size holes in his government provided security that was brought to light.
 
this makes no sense. You are secret service, could be a gun battle or who knows what and you bring your child to work?
you can't get a babysitter?
OR
you call another agent to cover you while you do this? SRSY

this would never fly in the private sector.
 
You're a parent, do your parenting job.

Saw something similar happen on a fire call. Possible structure fire, one guy lived a couple blocks away. So he stops to check it out while his 2 YO was in the car seat outside.

I was livid, told the chief and same as this story, nothing happened.

99% of the reason I retired was the bullshit politics.

If I had a $5,000+ scope on my rifle, confirming a potential shooter had a rifle pointed at a crowd, there’s no way I would wait for a kill order. It’s really concerning how order driven every government abider is.

Nobody who will do the right thing before getting orders lasts long in government. Heck, even in the .mil those guys have rocky careers above the NCO level unless there's a war going on.

The system prefers it this way.
 
It's that way in the private sector as well.
You sound like you work for government or some highly unionized shithole of an industry. :laughing:

Not every company is a bureaucratic shithole where doing the obvious next step without explicit orders gets punished.

Won't disagree, but you've already colored your thought process.

You only have to get your ass in a sling once to figure out that's not a good idea....not talking about life or death situations.
