A brief history of America's massive gun-buying spree <<< link


1980: American gun companies manufacture 5.6 million firearms.


1981: The Glock, the first pistol with a plastic receiver, is introduced. After fears subside that it could go undetected by X-ray machines, it becomes one of the hottest handguns for police officers and civilians.


1982: A “handgun freeze” proposition in California is defeated following a $5 million NRA campaign funded by gun companies, including Sturm Ruger and Smith & Wesson.

1990: Colt first introduced a civilian model of its military AR-15/M16 rifle in the 1960s, but it failed to patent its design. As other companies produced similar rifles, sales started to rise in the early ’90s. By 2011, Americans had bought more than 7 million “modern sporting rifles,” as pro-gun groups prefer to call these military-style weapons. Their owners spend an average of $436 on accessories and customization.

1992: More than one-third of all handguns are made by the “Ring of Fire”—six Southern California gunmakers known for their “Saturday night specials“: small, inexpensive pistols frequently linked to crimes.

1994: Congress passes a 10-year assault weapons ban, with former President Ronald Reagan among the leaders voicing support.


1995: NRA CEO Wayne LaPierre calls federal law enforcement agents “jack-booted government thugs.” President George H.W. Bush resigns his NRA life membership in response to this “vicious slander on good people.”

1996: Congress bans the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention from doing any research that could be used to “advocate or promote gun control,” effectively ending federally funded public health research on gun violence.

1997: The Clinton administration negotiates a deal with eight gunmakers to include trigger locks with their handguns.

1998: “I’m not a gun nut. I’m not even a member of the NRA,” says Colt’s CEO, who advocates the creation of federal gun permits.


1999: Colt develops a smart-gun prototype. It later abandons the project after the NRA threatens a boycott.


2000: Smith & Wesson agrees with the Clinton administration to enact various safety regulations. The NRA leads a boycott. The company’s sales drop 40 percent; it later backtracks.

2003: Congress passes the Tiahrt Amendment, blocking the ATF from releasing information on guns used in crimes. The data had been used to identify unscrupulous gun sellers and manufacturers.

2004: The federal assault weapons ban expires. <<<<<

2004: Bushmaster Firearms and a gun dealer agree to a $2.5 million settlement with victims of the DC Beltway snipers, who used a rifle designed to bypass the assault weapons ban.

2005: Congress passed the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, which blocked liability suits against gunmakers and sellers. Cities including Atlanta, Chicago, Miami, and New York had sued over the effects of gun violence, rattling the industry. In 1999, NRA President Charlton Heston assured gun execs, “Your fight has become our fight.” The PLCAA shut down the ongoing litigation. The law reemerged as a major issue in the 2016 Democratic primary, with Hillary Clinton pressing Bernie Sanders to justify his vote for it. Sanders has argued gunmakers should not be held liable for the actions of “somebody who is crazy or a criminal”—but he has also said the current law should be repealed.


2008: The “Barack Boom” begins, with gun sales spiking in tandem with President Barack Obama’s election. A gun industry newsletter reports “incessant consumer demand for high-capacity pistols and military-style rifles.”

2009: Remington CEO George Kollitides runs for the NRA board. He doesn’t succeed, but he gets a seat on the organization’s powerful nominating committee, which controls who can run.

2013: America’s largest outdoor-sports show bans AR-15s and other military-style rifles out of deference to grieving Newtown families. After the NRA boycotts the show, it shuts down. The NRA then takes over the show and brings it back in 2014—with AR-15s.

2015: Walmart says it will no longer carry AR-15s or other military-style rifles, claiming they sold poorly. The NRA says it’s “disappointed” but stops short of calling for a boycott.


2015: Former Rep. Jay Dickey (R-Ark.), who wrote the 1996 measure that killed the CDC’s research on gun violence, says he regrets the move. Regarding the lack of reliable data, he adds, “The status quo is not acceptable.”


2016: The Barrett .50-caliber sniper rifle, which can shoot through concrete blocks at a range of 3,000 feet, is named the state gun of Tennessee.

2016: Requests for FBI background checks on prospective gun buyers, an indicator of demand, reach record levels. Since 2008, gunmakers have produced or imported more than 75 million firearms for sale in the United States.

2017 Trump and the GOP , rollback the laws Obama had in place for mental health background checks..

2017 Trump and the GOP , rollback the laws Obama had in place for mental health background checks..

I'm sure that 'law' would have stopped a lot of people who couldn't handle their own finances, as determined by the SSA, from going on killing sprees.


(any idea how many senior citizens have gone on killing sprees in the last 50 years. (asking for a friend))

Trump and the GOP also stopped SAMSHA from mental illness in place since the 1980's

I trained on this tool and it helped so many

Federal health officials have suspended a program that helps thousands of professionals and community groups across the country find effective interventions for preventing and treating mental illness and substance-use disorders.

Washington Post: Breaking News, World, US, DC News & Analysis

Nice headline.

School system tried for years to help Florida shooting suspect


The program was 'froze' last September, pending restructuring.

Your article claims they tried for years, the program has been 'frozen' for months...



hmmm

Well that is because it would affect you personally, I can understand that.. Look at the timeline do you disagree with it..

The more socialist this country has become the more violent it is, and only fools blame firearms. People kill people the fire arms, firearms have no control over people. Most people learn that in grade school

I can agree with that especially with drug addiction..Did you see my post on how Trump and the GOP also stopped below? I have used this tool Rustic..they are paid off by the NRA and we know it..Why do you think it is ok what they are doing with the mental health bill?

The NRA is a great organization dedicated to preserving one of our most important constitutional rights against the government. Thank goodness for the NRA!

Do you see where Reagan had a law in place for assault rifles , but expired in 2002?

Why do you need Assault Rifles?


.

You have no idea what a so-called “assault rifle” is... ARs are nothing more than sporting rifles...
A tiny, tiny percent of murders in this country are done by using ARs...
It’s a non-issue, we have much bigger fish to fry.

33,000 people have died so far this year from medical errors, that is absolutely criminal what are you gonna do about that?

I will never support any more frivolous gun laws

Well that is because it would affect you personally, I can understand that.. Look at the timeline do you disagree with it..


.

The more socialist this country has become the more violent it is, and only fools blame firearms. People kill people the fire arms, firearms have no control over people. Most people learn that in grade school

I can agree with that especially with drug addiction..Did you see my post on how Trump and the GOP also stopped below? I have used this tool Rustic..they are paid off by the NRA and we know it..Why do you think it is ok what they are doing with the mental health bill?

Washington Post: Breaking News, World, US, DC News & Analysis

Federal health officials have suspended a program that helps thousands of professionals and community groups across the country find effective interventions for preventing and treating mental illness and substance-use disorders.

Obama was a hate filled president, he tried destroying everybody he disagreed with

France has no NRA.

And in France they have no right to firearms, what a fucking shit hole

You know as much as I do they carry them across the borders.

You know as much as I do they carry them across the borders.

So why are you wasting time trying to ban guns in America?
Cocaine is not grown in America, yet hundreds of tons of it exists within our borders.

No one is trying to ban your guns... Why do you need assault rifles?

Why do I need guns?
In 1938 the German government banned Jews from owning guns.
In 1918 the Russian government banned all citizens from owning guns.
Cambodia has a long history of gun control prior to 1975.
In 1949 the Chinese government banned all citizens from owning guns.

Yes, there is a reason the Founding Fathers wanted the citizens to remain armed.

 

[Auld Phart]

Anti gun freaks constantly claim the American people overwhelmingly support banning assault rifles, if so why haven't they been banned? What's the hold up? Don't have the votes in congress surely they are listening to their constituents right.

Then why did Reagan put it in place..?

He didn't.

Reagan wasn't President in 1994.

He merely co-signed a letter, along with Ford and Carter.

A brief history of America's massive gun-buying spree <<< link


1980: American gun companies manufacture 5.6 million firearms.


1981: The Glock, the first pistol with a plastic receiver, is introduced. After fears subside that it could go undetected by X-ray machines, it becomes one of the hottest handguns for police officers and civilians.


1982: A “handgun freeze” proposition in California is defeated following a $5 million NRA campaign funded by gun companies, including Sturm Ruger and Smith & Wesson.

1990: Colt first introduced a civilian model of its military AR-15/M16 rifle in the 1960s, but it failed to patent its design. As other companies produced similar rifles, sales started to rise in the early ’90s. By 2011, Americans had bought more than 7 million “modern sporting rifles,” as pro-gun groups prefer to call these military-style weapons. Their owners spend an average of $436 on accessories and customization.

1992: More than one-third of all handguns are made by the “Ring of Fire”—six Southern California gunmakers known for their “Saturday night specials“: small, inexpensive pistols frequently linked to crimes.

1994: Congress passes a 10-year assault weapons ban, with former President Ronald Reagan among the leaders voicing support.


1995: NRA CEO Wayne LaPierre calls federal law enforcement agents “jack-booted government thugs.” President George H.W. Bush resigns his NRA life membership in response to this “vicious slander on good people.”

1996: Congress bans the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention from doing any research that could be used to “advocate or promote gun control,” effectively ending federally funded public health research on gun violence.

1997: The Clinton administration negotiates a deal with eight gunmakers to include trigger locks with their handguns.

1998: “I’m not a gun nut. I’m not even a member of the NRA,” says Colt’s CEO, who advocates the creation of federal gun permits.


1999: Colt develops a smart-gun prototype. It later abandons the project after the NRA threatens a boycott.


2000: Smith & Wesson agrees with the Clinton administration to enact various safety regulations. The NRA leads a boycott. The company’s sales drop 40 percent; it later backtracks.

2003: Congress passes the Tiahrt Amendment, blocking the ATF from releasing information on guns used in crimes. The data had been used to identify unscrupulous gun sellers and manufacturers.

2004: The federal assault weapons ban expires. <<<<<

2004: Bushmaster Firearms and a gun dealer agree to a $2.5 million settlement with victims of the DC Beltway snipers, who used a rifle designed to bypass the assault weapons ban.

2005: Congress passed the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, which blocked liability suits against gunmakers and sellers. Cities including Atlanta, Chicago, Miami, and New York had sued over the effects of gun violence, rattling the industry. In 1999, NRA President Charlton Heston assured gun execs, “Your fight has become our fight.” The PLCAA shut down the ongoing litigation. The law reemerged as a major issue in the 2016 Democratic primary, with Hillary Clinton pressing Bernie Sanders to justify his vote for it. Sanders has argued gunmakers should not be held liable for the actions of “somebody who is crazy or a criminal”—but he has also said the current law should be repealed.


2008: The “Barack Boom” begins, with gun sales spiking in tandem with President Barack Obama’s election. A gun industry newsletter reports “incessant consumer demand for high-capacity pistols and military-style rifles.”

2009: Remington CEO George Kollitides runs for the NRA board. He doesn’t succeed, but he gets a seat on the organization’s powerful nominating committee, which controls who can run.

2013: America’s largest outdoor-sports show bans AR-15s and other military-style rifles out of deference to grieving Newtown families. After the NRA boycotts the show, it shuts down. The NRA then takes over the show and brings it back in 2014—with AR-15s.

2015: Walmart says it will no longer carry AR-15s or other military-style rifles, claiming they sold poorly. The NRA says it’s “disappointed” but stops short of calling for a boycott.


2015: Former Rep. Jay Dickey (R-Ark.), who wrote the 1996 measure that killed the CDC’s research on gun violence, says he regrets the move. Regarding the lack of reliable data, he adds, “The status quo is not acceptable.”


2016: The Barrett .50-caliber sniper rifle, which can shoot through concrete blocks at a range of 3,000 feet, is named the state gun of Tennessee.

2016: Requests for FBI background checks on prospective gun buyers, an indicator of demand, reach record levels. Since 2008, gunmakers have produced or imported more than 75 million firearms for sale in the United States.

2017 Trump and the GOP , rollback the laws Obama had in place for mental health background checks..

The NRA is a great organization dedicated to preserving one of our most important constitutional rights against the government. Thank goodness for the NRA!

Do you see where Reagan had a law in place for assault rifles , but expired in 2002?

Why do you need Assault Rifles?


.

You have no idea what a so-called “assault rifle” is... ARs are nothing more than sporting rifles...
A tiny, tiny percent of murders in this country are done by using ARs...
It’s a non-issue, we have much bigger fish to fry.

33,000 people have died so far this year from medical errors, that is absolutely criminal what are you gonna do about that?

Most of these peeps have probably never held a gun in their hands. They are a very ignorant bunch when it comes to anything to do with the 2nd amendment and guns.

How about . . . none of your business? Maybe he likes to target shoot with them? Besides that, AR-15s are NOT assault rifles. Why not just admit that you don't REALLY know what you are talking about. Most legal gun owners, whether they own a .22 rifle or an AR-15 have never and would never kill anyone. Wanting to kill people suggests a problem much deeper than simply owning a gun. You want to do nothing but ignore the real serious issues and just make up your own "villains" out of legal gun owners who have broken NO laws.

Dont waste your time reading....
It doesn't show anything but a timeline for gun manufacturing making no connection to shootings.

Humor her....she thinks she's on too something. Probably up all night coming up with that garbage

Can you argue my theory ..? You people who support the ban that expired probably do not realize that Reagan had it in place but expired in 2002..
NRA is making sure it stays that way..

Better question for you from me is how many people have died in Chicago and L.A. from firearms during the same period of time?

What is my point?

You are focusing on the weapon of choice and not the human factor.

The reality is many like you scream at the school shootings while ignoring the fact our society itself is violent.

Also remember OKC and Twin Towers took a truck bomb and boxcutters on a plane to kill so many people.

What is my point?

You can ban all the firearms you want but a killer will kill and no they will not care about the laws because if they did, well murder is against the law and it has not stop them...

1982: A “handgun freeze” proposition in California is defeated following a $5 million NRA campaign funded by gun companies, including Sturm Ruger and Smith & Wesson.

1990: Colt first introduced a civilian model of its military AR-15/M16 rifle in the 1960s, but it failed to patent its design. As other companies produced similar rifles, sales started to rise in the early ’90s. By 2011, Americans had bought more than 7 million “modern sporting rifles,” as pro-gun groups prefer to call these military-style weapons. Their owners spend an average of $436 on accessories and customization.

1992: More than one-third of all handguns are made by the “Ring of Fire”—six Southern California gunmakers known for their “Saturday night specials“: small, inexpensive pistols frequently linked to crimes.

1994: Congress passes a 10-year assault weapons ban, with former President Ronald Reagan among the leaders voicing support.


1995: NRA CEO Wayne LaPierre calls federal law enforcement agents “jack-booted government thugs.” President George H.W. Bush resigns his NRA life membership in response to this “vicious slander on good people.”

1996: Congress bans the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention from doing any research that could be used to “advocate or promote gun control,” effectively ending federally funded public health research on gun violence.

1997: The Clinton administration negotiates a deal with eight gunmakers to include trigger locks with their handguns.

1998: “I’m not a gun nut. I’m not even a member of the NRA,” says Colt’s CEO, who advocates the creation of federal gun permits.


1999: Colt develops a smart-gun prototype. It later abandons the project after the NRA threatens a boycott.


2000: Smith & Wesson agrees with the Clinton administration to enact various safety regulations. The NRA leads a boycott. The company’s sales drop 40 percent; it later backtracks.

2003: Congress passes the Tiahrt Amendment, blocking the ATF from releasing information on guns used in crimes. The data had been used to identify unscrupulous gun sellers and manufacturers.

2004: The federal assault weapons ban expires. <<<<<

2004: Bushmaster Firearms and a gun dealer agree to a $2.5 million settlement with victims of the DC Beltway snipers, who used a rifle designed to bypass the assault weapons ban.

2005: Congress passed the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, which blocked liability suits against gunmakers and sellers. Cities including Atlanta, Chicago, Miami, and New York had sued over the effects of gun violence, rattling the industry. In 1999, NRA President Charlton Heston assured gun execs, “Your fight has become our fight.” The PLCAA shut down the ongoing litigation. The law reemerged as a major issue in the 2016 Democratic primary, with Hillary Clinton pressing Bernie Sanders to justify his vote for it. Sanders has argued gunmakers should not be held liable for the actions of “somebody who is crazy or a criminal”—but he has also said the current law should be repealed.


2008: The “Barack Boom” begins, with gun sales spiking in tandem with President Barack Obama’s election. A gun industry newsletter reports “incessant consumer demand for high-capacity pistols and military-style rifles.”

2009: Remington CEO George Kollitides runs for the NRA board. He doesn’t succeed, but he gets a seat on the organization’s powerful nominating committee, which controls who can run.

2013: America’s largest outdoor-sports show bans AR-15s and other military-style rifles out of deference to grieving Newtown families. After the NRA boycotts the show, it shuts down. The NRA then takes over the show and brings it back in 2014—with AR-15s.

2015: Walmart says it will no longer carry AR-15s or other military-style rifles, claiming they sold poorly. The NRA says it’s “disappointed” but stops short of calling for a boycott.


2015: Former Rep. Jay Dickey (R-Ark.), who wrote the 1996 measure that killed the CDC’s research on gun violence, says he regrets the move. Regarding the lack of reliable data, he adds, “The status quo is not acceptable.”


2016: The Barrett .50-caliber sniper rifle, which can shoot through concrete blocks at a range of 3,000 feet, is named the state gun of Tennessee.

2016: Requests for FBI background checks on prospective gun buyers, an indicator of demand, reach record levels. Since 2008, gunmakers have produced or imported more than 75 million firearms for sale in the United States.

2017 Trump and the GOP , rollback the laws Obama had in place for mental health background checks..

I'm sure that 'law' would have stopped a lot of people who couldn't handle their own finances, as determined by the SSA, from going on killing sprees.


(any idea how many senior citizens have gone on killing sprees in the last 50 years. (asking for a friend))

Trump and the GOP also stopped SAMSHA from mental illness in place since the 1980's

I trained on this tool and it helped so many

Federal health officials have suspended a program that helps thousands of professionals and community groups across the country find effective interventions for preventing and treating mental illness and substance-use disorders.

Nice headline.

School system tried for years to help Florida shooting suspect


The program was 'froze' last September, pending restructuring.

Your article claims they tried for years, the program has been 'frozen' for months...



hmmm

Yes, the kids at school saw the shooter as a weird crazy guy and saw it coming..When did this guy get his guns..haven't read that yet?
And..Mental Health has been cut back by both parties since the 1960's.. You have to be suicidal to get into the hospital to be assessed ..
And seeing a physiatrist is more than likely not covered in insurance ..My friend is a pediatrician and told me that.

Did you get this link?

Yes, happened last September, months after the shooter bought his firearm.

and your own link states they had been trying to get him into a program, for years.
(long before they put a freeze on your program)

looks like they didn't try hard enough, hmmm?

Certainly not as hard as they working on trying to make villains out of American citizens and the POTUS!
