Mayor Walsh pushes Congress for more gun control

On: By: admin

Syracuse Mayor Ben Walsh is pushing Congress for more gun control:

“… Walsh has specific asks—he said that Congress needs to establish universal background checks regardless of whether someone is purchasing a gun from a store, online or at a gun show. He wants to see harsher penalties for those caught trafficking guns across state lines. Walsh also called for gun manufacturers themselves to be held accountable and face legal repercussions …”

He’s not getting any of this and he knows it. He’s just trying to divert attention away from all the existing gun control laws which he supported and which have obviously failed.
