Two mass shootings in the last month have claimed 29 lives in Texas, drawing scrutiny and criticism of the state’s lax firearm regulations.
Among these policies: gun owners can knowingly sell or transfer weapons to felons, making it one of the easiest states in which to carry out straw purchases. Texans are also not required to report lost or missing firearms to law enforcement, nor are large-capacity magazines restricted. |

"Gun owners can knowingly sell or transfer weapons to felons, making it one of the easiest states in which to carry out straw purchases."
What utter BS. There is no federal or state law than can stop a person from doing either, anywhere in the union. All laws can do is to punish the crime post facto.
'Shameless, bald-faced perfidy. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. ~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C) |
