At least 1,534,414 million guns sold in November! It was the biggest month in the history of the NICS system since it was implemented in 1998! A new record!! The old record was 1,529,000 in November of 2008!

Maybe more, because some background checks equal more than one gun sold. And many states do not require background checks for CCW license holders. This also does not count private sales that bypass the NICS system.

More armed Americans than ever and the crime and murder rate continues to fall!

And now Illinois is the only state does does now allow CCW. This means Wisconsin citizens will now be able to defend themselves against criminals who will always find a way to obtain gun illegally!

Once us Democrats stop fighting this, the sooner the GOP and NRA can stop using it against us!

The bad guys will ALWAYS have guns. Why would anyone want to prevent the good guys from having them?
