Amid reports the Justice Department is weighing banning transgender people from owning firearms in response to last month’s mass shooting at a Minneapolis Catholic church, the National Rifle Association said Friday it will oppose any blanket rule that limits Second Amendment rights.
Their declaration comes after CNN and other outlets reported that Justice Department leadership is considering whether it can use its rulemaking authority declare that people who are transgender are mentally ill and can lose their rights to possess firearms.
Don’t forget, on the firearm purchase application it asks if you currently or have ever smoked marijuana, which would exclude you from being allowed to purchase a weapon. I’d like to believe that question answered honestly would include almost every current firearm owner…so normal hypocrisy I suppose.
Should ask if you drink alcohol.
