NSSF's Larry Keane discusses new gun laws passed in California (1:05), NY's new background check system (7:55), and current federal gun policy issues (16:55). The NSSF Government Relations team advocates for measures on behalf of and works in defense of the firearms and ammunition industry at all levels and before all branches of government. We determine threats or benefits to the industry, develop strategies to address those activities and act through lobbying, grassroots advocacy and public affairs efforts. https://bit.ly/45JkHVC

𝐓𝐎𝐃𝐀𝐘: 𝐋𝐞𝐁𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐜 𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐩𝐬 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐨𝐧 𝐋𝐢𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐬’ 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐠𝐮𝐧 𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐥 “The Liberals were able to use gun control as a wedge against then-Conservative Leader Erin O'Toole in the 2021 federal election, but they have tied themselves in knots on the file in this Parliament. Dominic LeBlanc took over the file in the July 26 cabinet shuffle, which saw his predecessor, Marco Mendicino, booted from cabinet entirely. Gun rights groups have been against this bill since it was introduced in May 2022 with a focus on restricting handguns. But the Liberals also upset #hunters, the Assembly of First Nations, and several of their own rural MPs last November—when the bill was already going through clause-by-clause consideration at the House Public Safety Committee (#SECU) —by introducing 300-plus pages of amendments that significantly broadened the scope of the bill to include bans on 'assault-style' weapons. The #Liberals withdrew the contentious amendments in February and proposed a new 'assault weapon' ban in May that would apply only to new [legal] firearms. This angered some gun-control advocates who say the government secured their initial support for the #handgun bill, in May 2022, by promising to add a comprehensive assault-weapon ban later in the process.” Read more from Kevin Philipupillai at The Hill Times: https://lnkd.in/ezYwjSUE #cdnpoli #polcan #onpoli #guncontrol #ScrapC21 #canada #ontario #quebec #manitoba #saskatchewan #alberta #britishcolumbia #newbrunswick #novascotia #pei #newfoundland #northwestterritories #nunavut #yukon #linkedin #viral #news #politics #read #firearms #firearmnews #HillTimes #LeBlanc Véronique LeBlanc Liberal Party of Canada • Parti Libéral du Canada #guns

The definition of an “assault weapon” is more legislative than technical, meaning the criteria varies based on the law. In states like California and under the federal government’s 1994 assault weapon ban, the AR-15 is categorized as such. In 1994, Congress passed the Public Safety and Recreational Firearms Use Protection Act, a federal assault weapons ban that prohibited the manufacturing of more than 100 firearms for civilian use, including the AR-15. I believe it would be sane & sound public safety policy to renew the Public Safety and Recreational Firearms Use Protection Act. #BanAssaultWeapons #gunsafety #EnoughlsEnough #publicsafety #gunviolence #mainemassshooting #massshooting #civiceducation #civicengagement #civicduty #stoptheviolence

Like Son, Like Father So, one man decides to become a mass shooter on the streets of Philadelphia, with his father trying to emulate this atrocious behavior in suit. Kudos to Law Enforcement for the apprehensions of both individuals. While one family may pass down traits of positivity from parent to child there are also those who are connected through negative means. Officers Remember: You've been to the property numerous times for various complaints. You know the residents. STOP. Proceed with caution. It's never certain when or where someone may try and give you a hotfoot. #police #policeofficer #policetraining #policeofficers #policedepartment #policejobs #policechief #policecommemorationday #lawenforcement #emergencymanagement #emergencypreparedness #emergencyresponse #emergencyservices #emergency #emergencyplanning #emt #emts #firesafety #firefighter #firesafety #firefighters #firefightertraining #publicsafety #nypd #ppd #pfd #nyfd #phillypolice #philadelphiapolice #philadelphiapolicedepartment #lapd #activeshooter #arson https://lnkd.in/emHzCqtW

Street crime in Philadelphia has become so acute that some businesses have hired state-certified armed security, who appear to lawfully operate on both the private property of their employers, and in the adjacent public domain. For those of you who favour defunding and disbanding the governmental police or sheriff's department, what is your comfort level with this? This is a big step towards privatization of public safety- are these private agents screened and trained to the same level as the public officers? If they shoot someone- which seems to be imminent, given the criminal gunplay in the streets of Philly- how will they be held accountable? Where is the civilian governance and oversight? Does this not actually make a very strong case for strengthening our public police forces? As can be seen, in an extreme example, in Seattle's infamous 'CHAZ' or 'CHOP', the void created by the absence of public police WILL be filled by armed men of some other provenance. In this Philly situation, fortunately these armed men seem to be the good guys- it will not always be the case, as the folks in Seattle's Capitol Hill found out three summers ago. Defend the police. Re-fund the police. Back the blue. #abolition #defund #detask #police #sheriff #communitypolicing #vigilante #2A #shallnotbeinfringed #secondamendment #thinblueline #backtheblue https://lnkd.in/gQ2xSqKH

The latest episode takes a look at this year's National #PoliceWeek and an incredible rescue by #NYPD #officers of a man who suffered a seizure and fell on subway tracks. #TheLineup #OfficerMagazine

“…Much more can be done. Among the myriad possibilities: the #Surgeon General could provide biannual reports on #guns and #suicide; the federal government could both conduct and fund #research into smart guns and safer means of home protection than owning a #handgun; #police could have social workers embedded in precincts; the faith #community could make it clear that it is a cardinal sin to sell a gun to a stranger without a background check. Probably the most important thing our #country can do is to elect more officials who will help make changes where the effect will be greatest — in the gun industry and the gun #culture.

The LAPD use of force investigation into this incident should take no more than 5 minutes in determining the Officers actions were justified. The Officers were actively pursuing an armed subject on a bicycle that had just shot a family member. While the armed bicyclist actively attempted to evade the Officers, the Officers maintained distance and attempted to deescalate the situation by communicating with the subject over a loud speaker. When the armed subject continued his attempts to flee, for the safety of the community an Officer used a modified PIT maneuver to safely end the pursuit. This armed and dangerous subject was then quickly taken into custody with out further incident and only a “complaint”of injury which he was quickly medically cleared from in order to be booked into jail. The Officers actions were creative, professional, and proper and the use of force is 100% justified. They improvised, adapted, and overcame the challenge and removed a dangerous person and a gun from the streets.
