98Z5V Posted June 22, 2022 Report Share Posted June 22, 2022 Pennsylvania Rs are gettin' it done, in reference to the FLOOD of D measures coming in after Uvalde. Check it: Pa. GOP lawmakers block assault-style gun ban for those under 2 Associated Press, Mark Scolforo, June 21, 2022 https://whyy.org/articles/pa-gop-lawmakers-block-assault-style-gun-ban-for-those-under-21/ State House Republicans blocked a proposal to prevent those ages 18 to 21 from possessing assault-style rifles on Tuesday by completely changing the bill into a constitutional amendment to allow anyone to carry concealed guns. It was the second week in a row that Republicans in the Judiciary Committee used their majority to defeat Democratic proposals to address the country’s gun violence plague. The bill would have prevented those under age 21 from purchasing, possessing or transporting the types of weapons that have often been used to kill and wound people in the mass shootings that have become an epidemic in the United States. So-called “constitutional carry” has wide support among the Legislature’s Republicans, but a bill to allow it was vetoed by Democratic Gov. Tom Wolf in December. Rep. Joe Hohenstein, D-Philadelphia, called the unfettered right to bear arms a myth that leads to the type of violence seen in the Wild West. “We can say all we want about how guns will make certain people safer, they also make a whole lot of other people less safe,” he said during the brief hearing in the Capitol. Violence is occurring with legally purchased guns, he noted. “It’s legal purchases of firearms that are turning into the mass shootings that we see.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If more of your population was allowed to carry, and you had NO (as is NONE) Gun-Free Zones... you'd likely never see a mass shooting again - the mentally ill or deranged fuckers that do these acts would be too scared to even try it. If you completely removed Philadelphia from the state stats, totally - when was the last time there was a "mass shooting" in PA?...
