“…[There are] about 392 million guns in circulation [estimated private ownership in the United States]…” – How Many Guns Are Circulating in the U.S.?, January 30, 2025

“…The [estimated] United States population on April 11, 2025 was: 341,604,171….”

There doesn’t appear to be shortage of either. And it’s obvious that the ATF doesn’t appear to have any regulatory clout when it comes to promoting scarcity.

That doesn’t bother right wingnuts one tiny bit.

Today:

Congressman Mark Alford
[April 12, 2025]
Thanks for asking us about the ATF, [….]
There’s entirely too much overreach right now—that’s why we were glad to sign onto Rep. Eric Burlison’s Abolish the ATF Act, defending our Second Amendment rights.
[….]

Some of the responses:

Mr. Alford, when’s the next Mondays with Mark, where you meet, in person, with your real constituents to answer their real questions and get to see their real response to you repeating Republican talking points?

in person town halls are a thing of the ancient past, you have maybe 100 people max when you can reach thousands with virtual town halls. I would encourage Mark and all politicians, regardless of their party affiliation and not waste their time with outdated town halls. [….]

outdated town halls? These people are our representatives. We should be able to see them and question them in person. Virtual town halls get to screen questions and people. I’m sure your fake Harvard education would have taught you that.

Congressman Mark Alford explain Trump caving in on his electronics tariffs! 😂😂😂😂

‘Entirely too much overreach’?
You are CONSTANTLY parroting that go to rhetoric.
Republicans are the majority of the House, Senate, presidency & Supreme Court!
If you REALLY wanted to do something about this ‘overreach’, then you would.
But then what would MAGA Republicans have to complain about Democrats?
Y’all just keep the divide going.
You’re THE PROBLEM!
Let’s shrink government, as in YOUR job!
We don’t need you to continue wasting our tax dollars!

The Projectionist Party.

Most people are asking you about how they are going to afford to feed their families & own a home. Your cherry picking is absurd ‼️

The House is in recess for two weeks and all we’re getting is edited reruns?

Hiding from your citizens. U coward.

Elon Musk says that we can only communicate with the Social Security Admin via Twitter (aka X)
How many elderly people know what X is much less use it??
It’s just another attempt by Elon Musk to get more of our tax dollars to bail out his failing companies.

Let me ask you my question: Explain what the Canadian PM did at his meeting in Europe not long ago, and why when Japan reached out and grabbed trump by the pussy and squeezed mid-week, he folded like the cheap suit he is. Explain the damage trump did to American Exceptionalism and the reverberations thru the world from that damage. Explain all of that to me like I’m 5 years old.

The only overreach is you reaching for Der Fuhrers ass

That went well.
