New gun laws

I spend everyday working with felons and addiction issues. I have been doing this for 20 years and no matter what you think, new laws regarding the purchase of any type of guns are totally useless.
Here is why and it’s not based on emotion just in fact. There are literally tens of thousands of illegal guns in our country that are readily available for snd in the hands of criminals. These weapons never can be controlled as they are stolen, brought into our country through the ridiculous open border. Gang and traded in the streets. The problem is a people problem. Laws that continue to release known criminals with existing laws being ignored and mental health issues also being ignored and not treated.
Criminals, gangs, and radical groups of every type do and will continue to have open access to weapons no matter what the laws allow.
This is based on talking to felons and seeing the availability for 20 years.

Fascinating fact that most of the illegal firearms recovered by Police in Mexico are American made, there is only 1 firearms manufacturer in Mexico and dozens in the good ole USA so who's really encouraging the illegal weapons?

@spjennifer President Trump got hundreds of miles constructed, and demonocrats halted further construction. Funny how that happened

@spjennifer "House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) proposed "mowing the grass" along the southern border on Tuesday instead of securing the border with the wall.

Pelosi joined the Arizona Republic for an interview where she confessed she is not the "biggest advocate in Congress" for the construction of border wall, even if, in the words of the Republic‘s Ron Hansen, it could give "some insurance for the Dreamers."

"Well, I’m not the wall’s biggest advocate in Congress," Pelosi said. "But I do know that representatives in the House and senators in that body from the border wall areas have some serious objections to a wall, because they know how detrimental it can be to the community trade, to all of the other aspects of a border."

The debate over immigration reform is expected to continue as the next deadline, March 23, approaches to pass a spending bill and avoid a government shutdown. Pelosi has been a staunch opponent of increasing border security in the form of President Donald Trump's campaign promise to build a wall along the southern border.

The Democratic leader said that while Trump's campaign promise to build a wall and have Mexico pay for it was "never going to happen," she saw opportunity to discuss other security measures. Pelosi, for instance, advocated for "mowing the grass so people can’t be smuggled through the grass" along the southern border.

"Let’s talk about where a more serious structure might be necessary–where fencing will do or mowing the grass so people can’t be smuggled through the grass." Pelosi said. "That’s something– levies, technology, personnel."

Pelosi's interview with the Republic was a scheduled "Trump Tax Town Hall" stop, part of a 100-city tour Democrats are organizing to voice their opposition to GOP tax reform."

@spjennifer Gee, you could google it and find the cnn interview, but we all realize that is beyond your capabilities

@sunsporter1649 The only people concerned with the problems a wall will impose on the border trade are those trading in humans and illegal drugs.

@sunsporter1649 It would be funnier if it weren't so true.
