Seems like the liberal yet pro life catholics have been keeping those nasty gun toting NRA graded politicians in office.

"All this despite 89 percent of voters — including 83 percent of Republicans — in 2019 favoring background checks on all gun sales, which is a level of bipartisan agreement that’s tough to find these days. But the Republican Party leadership listens to the National Rifle Association more than their constituents. The NRA spent $1.6 million lobbying Congress during the 2019 fight to effectively make it easier for domestic abusers, fugitives and convicted felons to purchase a gun."

This article mentions 89% of voters, including 83% of Republicans. I think the author understated those numbers, as the % of voters in 2020 accounted for closer to 128% who favored stricter laws. (I figure, if you're going to make up numbers, why not go all out?)

So, how many of us here (now, be honest) are domestic abusers, fugitives and convicted felons? C'mon, let's see a show of hands.

The current NICS system already weeds out those ineligible to lawfully purchase firearms. Those who fail the background check just buy firearms on the black market as is customary for, you know, criminals.
What the hell is wrong with those psychotic aberrant bastards in D.C.?
