Mayor Walsh pushes Congress for more gun control

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.

Republicans to introduce guns & pot bill in Congress

This could be good, but wait until the bill text is available for review:

“Republican House lawmakers have filed the first piece of marijuana reform legislation for the 118th Congress, proposing to allow medical cannabis patients to purchase and possess firearms … While the full text isn’t yet available, the bill shares the short title of the “Second Amendment Protection Act” that [Rep. Alex Mooney (R-WV)] filed in the 116th Congress. It’s unclear if it’s been amended from that version. But as the title explains, the measure seeks to amend federal statute as it concerns the “sale, purchase, shipment, receipt, or possession of a firearm or ammunition by a user of medical marijuana.” … “

Doesn’t sound like it would include recreational use which is more important than a medical-only exemption.
