1. > He pleaded guilty in 2020 for lying on firearm transaction forms, saying the guns were **for his personal use. He purchased 95 semi-automatic rifles** at Guns Unlimited in Katy, Texas, making seven visits over two months.

   A guy buys 95 semi-automatic rifles in 2 months “for his personal use”, and the same law enforcement agencies that spend billions of dollars building a pervasive global surveillance system that scans the most private thoughts of every person on the planet can’t prevent that, despite those purchases being directly reported to them?!?

2. does NRA stand for Not Reselling Arms

3. “Of the other six top purchasers, half are linked to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives scandal known as Fast and Furious.”

4. What’s ironic is that the ATF should theoretically have the resources to do a better job at addressing legitimate issues like these. But instead they keep deciding to put their limited resources towards other causes, such as retroactively banning braced pistols. If they weren’t so busy making legal gun owners’ lives hell, they’d actually have the resources to deal with this.

5. Melt down all guns on planet earth and just be down with it already

6. Start with enforcing the laws in the cities and go after the gangs in the U.S.

7. Sorry but blaming cartel violence on the availability of weapons from US is silly. Yes, they get them from the US because it is easiest route. These cartels have money on the order of nation-states and could absolutely buy from Russia or even manufacture them if they needed to. 

8. People don’t realize that the government is behind all of this
