RCMP began investigating Matthan Runighan earlier this year after receiving several complaints about antisemitic posts he allegedly made on social media. As part of that investigation, police ended up searching Runigahn’s home for unlicenced firearms.

It seems to me that the public discussion on #firearm control would better be served if govts released the documents or transcripts of meetings and the information they have gathered to help them come to their decisions — there’s something going on, otherwise all States would come out with the same data that would inform pretty uniform decisions nationally. Instead we, yet again, have different #gunlaws in different jurisdictions. Oh…and guess what, the #NationalFirearmsRegistry Howard legislated for, well we’re still waiting for that and likely to wait a long while yet, if we ever get one.

So, either govts did not consult widely nor gathered the facts and acted on politcal gut feel, or there’s power (aka money) behind the decisions and nothing to do with keeping guns out of the hands of #Crims and #NutCases.

Plea from top cop for limit on gun ownership knocked back

In the push for gun law reform in the wake of the Bondi attack, Tasmania's Police Commissioner urged the state government to limit the number of firearms a person can own, citing the murder of an officer the year before in her plea — but to no avail, documents show.

#SenatorJohnson we don’t all drive turnip trucks out here. The video evidence is overwhelming. ICE employs unqualified, unfit, improperly trained thugs & incentivizes them to terrorize American cities & towns.

Your hypocrisy in highlighting one of the victim’s lawful, 2A carrying of a #firearm is especially outrageous coming from a #Republican whose party is in the #NRA’s pocket.

#Senator, go pound sand. (2/3)

Like I said about the #SecondAmendment folks…

#FBI Director #KashPatel accused the man killed by a federal officer Saturday of breaking the #law by possessing a #firearm he had a #legal #permit to carry, failing to explain what law was broken & refusing to support his claim.

During an interview on FauxNews’ “Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo,” Patel said the man, #AlexPretti, was not allowed to bring a #firearm to a #protest [he wasn’t attending a protest].
