Didn't the ammo vanish from the shelves during Trump's term?

I did not see a single box of ammo at Academy (a big box outdoors store) today.

Throughout history, some very terrible people have nevertheless done some fantastically incredible things that deserve to be recognized and appreciated in spite of their provenance.

Guns, smuns, why are there pretend pills? That's not a choking hazard at all....and a pump action revolver rifle....now I'm really worried.

While funneling sufficient income from your organization technically does mean you get to call it a "non-profit organization," that is not at all what the designation is supposed to mean.

It's a big deal for someone with mental issues, be it depression or psychosis or delusions, to be able to literally just walk into a Walmart and buy what they want to shoot up a school or store.

I can't be arsed to find it right now, but I'm pretty sure someone who is mentally ill is more likely to be shot than do the shooting.

Just because people talk about white male shooters with mental illness doesn't mean it's any more than an excuse to make it less bad that a white male did something wrong. Open carry, if anything, just means you can see the people who desperately need to use guns as their identity right out in the open. :p

I'm European. Normal people in a civilized society don't need easy instant access to firearms as far as I'm concerned. This is just something our cultural differences are too big for.
But even assuming you want anyone and everyone to have free access, no background checks at all - literally nothing - is a horrible idea that will result in more deaths than there needed to be.

It used to be "I don't dial 911" with a picture of a Colt 1911.
Now it's become "I don't wear no PPE" with a Walther PPK strapped on their hip.

This is about open carry though, not buying guns.

Gun purchases will still require federal background checks. I assume DA is talking about 'constitutional carry'--the right to carry a gun openly or concealed.

I'm of the opinion that anyone who wants to carry concealed now probably already does do, whether or not they have a permit.I don't imagine taking the permit out of that equation will change much. The biggest societal change will probably be the open carry part. It's not a big deal in Virginia, but we've had it here for a long time. In Texas, I imagine it'll be like someone's 21st birthday (alcohol age here). They'll overdo it considerably because they've been repressed, until they learn to moderate.
