Two gun-industry organizations report that October 2019’s gun sales spiked 10 percent compared to October 2018’s firearm sales. This also marks the third month in a row of an increase in gun sales, the Washington Free Beacon reports.
The National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) and Small Arms Analytics & Forecasting (SAAF) used data gathered from the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System. The FBI’s system processes the background checks needed to buy guns from federally licensed dealers and includes information on every sale of a new gun made in America. The researchers filtered out checks that didn’t result in a gun purchase. |

Why do these ‘genius’ gun control advocates think the increasing number of people who are buying small arms are doing so? So there will be more arms to confiscate?
Only an idiot would believe that people are stocking up on arms, particularly the kind on the left’s front burner, thinking that they intend to turn them in or allow them to be taken away.
They are buying arms precisely to prepare for the “DoI Option”, i.e. in the event that the government goes completely rogue and egregiously attempts to impose a mass confiscation that signals the end of our liberty.
Now, THINK about that. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
