Tennessee Govenor Just Strengthened Gun Laws

"Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee on Tuesday signed an executive order aimed at strengthening background checks for firearm purchases, in addition to calling for lawmakers to pass an order of protection law to keep guns away from people who present a danger to themselves or others."

Let's thank The Tennessee Three who fought for common sense gun laws and thousands of angry citizens who said, "Enough!"

Also, I thought you guys hated all gun restrictions

[–] JoWilli (15339) a year ago

good job Gavin. we already have gun restrictions, you can just walk into a store and buy a gun, for law abiding citizens you have to pass a background check.

I did enjoy gavins snarky comment too.

"We’re doubling down on gun safety and strengthening our public carry law to protect it from radical Republican attacks.”

it appears the criminals in california are not following gavins new gun safety laws.

I assume radical republicans are to blame for this.

California is one of the better states per capita

But I thought you hated gun regulations

[–] JoWilli (15339) a year ago

what about 2022? why do you want to ban guns?

[–] Keelai (32045) a year ago

Why do you want to give guns to criminals, crazies and kiddies?

[–] JoWilli (15339) a year ago

never said I did. but its interesting that mass murders have risen over 1000% in the past 2 years. maybe defunding the police wasnt a good idea.

[–] Keelai (32045) a year ago

Gun massacres fell 37 percent while assault weapons ban was in place, rose by 183 percent after ban expired.

You gun nuts are ruining the country with your pro-gun violence policy.

still waiting for joe to unite the nation and BBB. he has 2 years left.

[–] Keelai (32045) a year ago

Country is united against right-wing extremists. That's why you're doing poorly in elections.

[–] JoWilli (15339) a year ago

if democrats would stop hijacking elections then republicans can make America great again.

Trump stole that slogan from Hitler!

Governor was forced to do something after democrats complained through demonstrations - thousands of irate parents and students plus the Tennessee Three who are now internationally known.

[–] JoWilli (15339) a year ago

why didnt Joe or the democrats in congress do something? I am certain that all criminals will adhere to these new gun laws and will build back better.

The Vice-President was sent to Tennessee.

Kamalatoe?

[–] Keelai (32045) a year ago

Congress is republican. Why don't you contact your republican governor, congressional and senate reps. and tell them to do something?

[–] JoWilli (15339) a year ago

congress is democrat and Joe is democrat. why doesnt Joe just sign a EO and ban all guns?

[–] Keelai (32045) a year ago

Congress is Republican. You've been in your bubble too long.

[–] JoWilli (15339) a year ago

congress and the president is democrat. why doesnt Joe sign an EO to stop mass murders?

[–] Keelai (32045) a year ago

Link proof that Congress is Democrat.

The red flag stuff won't pass. All that can be done is some overweight commie lesbo gets drunk and starts calling on every guy in the book saying they are bad.

[–] wheelin176 (2026) a year ago

The governor and legislators in Tennessee gun laws are crazy. No permit,no training and be 18 yrs old. Just put your money out and it's yours

[–] elcamino (15540) a year ago

Calling for is the wording. I am calling for Megan Fox to marry me, but I know it will never happen also.
