Congressman Morelle takes action to combat devastating cycle of gun violence.

Ah yes. The "cycle of gun violence". Not people violence - specifically inner city ute violence. It's those darn guns once again.

What they are admitting implicitly (but would deny officially) is this is a cultural problem specific to certain demographic within urban locations. Hence the code words like intervention and reducing retaliatory acts. But they prefer to label it a gun violence problem.

The demographic guns are acting up again! We must do something about those hunks of steel and their anti social behavior.

"sets security standards for firearms dealers"
"establish basic business practices and certification requirements for gun shop owners and employees"

And there it is, folks. More attempts to reduce or eliminate firearms dealers through overbearing rules and requirements.
do the statistics even show that the majority of "illegal guns" occur from licensed dealers? Have these nazis even bothered to LOOK?

And all of this will cost a measly $5billion.
I can think of a much more effective way to reduce gang violence for that kind of money.

I was in the Mall parking lot the other day and saw a gang of guns waiting for an opportunity to do violence. It was really quite scary; until I realized it is all bs.

Politicians are professional grifters.

To put it mildly.

I didn't read the article. Does he want to segregate people who repeatedly demonstrate they they are unwilling or incapable of following the rules of society?

would this be the same Joe Morelle that is, basically, the water boy for the NYS DNC. The "yes man" to all democRATS in New Yorkistan. The, Jump ~~~~ 'how high' yes boy.

He is a sniveling, weasel, just like the rest of the DemcRATS in politics. Its all about control and compliance, period

Be careful. The professional grifters association might sue you for slander.

The war on drugs has worked so good. Now they will try it on guns.... . Much of the shootings are over turf in the drug trade ... Biden has allowed the cartels free reign to import anything they want.. Drugs, under age sex traffic and guns.. That is where one starts.

 

[Blimey]

I didn't see anything in the link objectionable. They actually seem to be focusing more on the people doing it than the guns, which is of course the proper approach. Rochester has a massive problem. The news is constantly plastered with shootings. 99%+ (literally) of these do not happen in the suburbs. It is clearly a city problem, so if they have a mechanism that has actually proven to lower it they should give it a go.

Knowing nothing else it looks like they are going after the people and the paradigms that create this. It will be a long slog.

The cycle of gun violence goes like this.

Violent criminal commits crime.
Violent criminal gets arrested.
Leftist judge releases criminal with a slap on the wrist (if that anymore)
Violent criminal commits another crime.


There is one obvious place society can interrupt that cycle of violence, but they won't do it.

If they interrupt the cycle, government can no longer use it as an excuse to acquire more money and power.

Is anyone trying to counter the narrative he's pushing? No.
