Granite Staters: Today’s Five-Minute Activism
HB1050 is a restriction on Second Amendment rights, creates precedents for further restrictive measures, and impacts individuals’ rights to self-defense without adequately addressing the underlying issues related to firearm misuse. It creates an sneaky avenue for so-called ‘red flag’ attempts and is a backdoor gun registry attempt. [More]
Show me a “commonsense gun safety law” that isn’t a fraudulent power grab proposed by self-serving traitors and backed by useful idiots.
Ask Republicans if they’re interested in keeping their majority. And I wouldn’t waste my time on these traitors.
