Christopher Jachimiec, gun owner and Air Force veteran, talked with Fox and Friends this weekend about the many different options gun owners have to safely store their firearms in effort to #EndFamilyFire. Chris lost his brother, Lance Corporal Adam Jachimiec, to firearm suicide and has since become an advocate for safe storage as a means to prevent Veteran firearm suicide, even sharing his story as part of Brady’s End Family Fire campaign. Storing all guns locked, unloaded, and separate from ammo is critical to prevent suicide, unintentional shootings, and misuse of firearms by children— and as Chris highlights, it’s easy to do.

We have Laws "on the books" already. The problem is they aren't enforced or enforcement is sporadic. Democrats believe The Police can be there to protect them at all times. So they are ok with banning assault rifles. I would be ok with banning assault rifles too, if I didn't understand that the majority of assault rifles were obtained illegally by criminals which were prohibited from having them in the first place. Also, if the possibility of our Government becoming Tyrannical or the possibility of a foreign nation invader didn't exist. Now, how well did the War On Marijuana do? How well did Alcohol Prohibition do? Purposeful criminals will always access the prohibited merchandise. That is one point. The other point is: If we were zero tolerant on the laws already in place, we wouldn't be having this conversation. Another strategy that would end these conversations would be the ending of sensationalizing violence in our media, entertainment, and "humor" in private. Any action against another tailored or devised to impose upon another in a negative manner with the exception of law enforcing justice contributes to the rising social acceptance and norms of overlooking and even partaking in "petty crimes" which can and will quickly and easily escalate. Democrat or Republican means nil. Those are moot points. Why? Gun ownership is a fundamental part of American Ideology, tradition, self preservation, and National Preservation of our Democracy. Don't get it twisted. Use that brain. Which brings me to another point. There comes a point in some individuals lives where they've "made it", and no longer have to use their brains due to Notariety. They become complicit, and succumb to the alternate reality of the wealthy which impedes the ability to comprehend life as a regular citizen, which are the ones whom actually hold the power in the country and pay the Politicians wages. Convince me otherwise.

Believe it or not, there are Democrats who own firearms for self-defense, but unlike many MAGA supporters, Democratic gun owners do not have an unhealthy fixation on them. Instead, we support sensible gun reforms and are committed to preventing the constant tragedy of innocent children being mowed down in our schools and communities. “Harris: "I'm a gun owner, Tim Walz is a gun owner" Oprah: "I did not know that!"

Shared verbiage from email via Joi at nssfnews@nssf.org September 1-7 Is ‘Gun Storage Check Week’ Gun Storage Check Week kicks off today, running through Sept. 7. Given that September is National Suicide Prevention Month, our focus is stressing the importance of how secure storage can prevent suicide. Many are often surprised to learn that most firearm fatalities are suicide deaths, not homicides or accidents. By securely storing their firearms, gun owners and their families can create time and space between a person in crisis and a gun. That interruption to access has been shown to save lives. Please join us in promoting the “Make Sure It’s Secure” message Sept. 1-7. This effort will help NSSF and the industry carry out its commitment to helping reduce the rate of suicide by firearm. The more collaboration we receive from companies, organizations, law enforcement, individuals, and other safety partners, the more people we can reach with this important safety message—to “Make Sure It’s Secure.” https://lnkd.in/g4XDMVuZ NSSF—The Firearm Industry Trade Association

The Biden administration is issuing a rule designed to close a gap that allows gun buyers to avoid background checks. The move will end the so-called "gun show loophole” and require checks when dealers sell guns at gun shows, flea markets, social media or other places outside of brick-and-mortar stores. Let's go even further - tell congress to ban assault weapons and large capacity magazines and pass comprehensive legislation to reduce gun violence here: http://bit.ly/31cmLXG #GunSafetyNow

FACTUAL SOLUTION: BAN AR-15’s & Make it ILLEGAL for Anyone under AGE 21 to Own a GUN (plus Make Parents/Gun owners Responsible for Locking & Securing their Guns in their homes) There are ZERO REASONS for a CIVILIAN to OWN an AR-15! ONLY an AR-15 is Easy to Buy & Use by a Civilian to Shoot w/ the Accuracy & Distance Needed to Attempt Assassination of President Trump Yesterday😡✌🏻
