Excuse Me? Look What's Buried Way Down in That WaPo Piece About How New Gun Purchases Led to Spikes in Crime

The June background check numbers were insane. With the beginning of the COVID lockdowns and the George Floyd riots that followed, scores of law-abiding Americans have flocked to gun stores. This isn’t shocking. The Floyd riots showed that the police cannot protect you all the time, and when coupled with political leadership that hates and hamstrings cops, the results are even more chaotic. Minneapolis looks likes something out of Sarajevo c. 1992. New York City was engulfed by the leftist mob. Looting, arson, and vandalism were hallmark characteristics in cities seen across the country during the mayhem, and cops were beaten, run over with cars, and fired upon by these thugs. Given the behavior of the mob, there’s no wonder why June gun sales were astronomical. There are now nearly 10 million new gun owners, but somehow legal gun purchases have caused a spike in crime. Yeah, that’s what you’d expect to hear from a liberal publication (via WaPo) [emphasis mine]:

That gun-buying binge is associated with a significant increase in gun violence across the United States.

Those are the conclusions of two studies by the Brookings Institution and the University of California at Davis, respectively. Together, they paint a portrait of a society arming itself against social upheaval during a time of institutional failure.

  1. Right. Because street criminals legally purchase and register the guns they go out and use in crimes.

  2. WaPo was literally created by CIA.
    NY Times is an intelligence operation, as is CNN, NBC, ABC, CNBS, MSNBC, and Fox News.

    The US population is being manipulated by the most technologically advanced mind control apparatus to ever exist. This is 2020 - so the abilities of these technocrats are simply unbelievable for most people.

    The Tell-A-Vision is a very powerful weapon and after it was upgraded to digital sound and video technology, it became simply irresistible.

  3. A dog gets more factual information from sniffing another dog's behind than a human gets from watching CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, NBC, NYT, WAPO ETC.
    DISGUSTING FAKE NEWS FROM THESE MAIN STREAM MEDIA FOR POLITICAL PURPOSES WITHOUT CHECKING IF IT WAS TRUE OR NOT. _Pushing a Democrat Agenda!! Those rioters, killers in the streets are NOT getting their weapons legally. Who in their right mind can believe that?????
