If we get just the right gun law, criminals will stop using firearms to rob others or settle gang scores. What is this magical law […]
Clear infringement…
Standard Ruger AR15 for $450… while the new NJ, NY, MD, MA gun control legal Ruger AR15 has an MSRP of $849. That looks like infringement to me #PollTax
