A close look at the latest anti-gun extremist group that wants to ban and confiscate but then talks about being reasonable...

Despite Troye’s attempts to stake out a moderate and centrist position, an investigation by the Second Amendment Foundation’s Investigative Journalism Project found that 97Percent is nothing more than a run-of-the-mill anti-gun group, albeit one with better messaging and PR.

Some of the findings include:

  1. 97Percent has supported an “assault weapon” ban.
  2. 97Percent has supported a standard-capacity magazine ban.
  3. 97Percent has supported a bump-stock ban.
  4. 97Percent has supported expanded red-flag laws.
  5. 97Percent has supported permits to carry firearms.
  6. 97Percent has supported permits to purchase firearms.
  7. 97Percent has supported permits to possess firearms.
  8. 97Percent has supported the loss of Second Amendment rights upon conviction of a “violent misdemeanor.”
  9. 97Percent has supported mandatory storage laws, which would lead to mandatory home inspections by police.
  10. 97Percent has supported mandatory background checks, without acknowledging they would lead to mandatory firearm registration and the creation of a national gun registry.
  11. 97Percent claims the Second Amendment is “overprotected.”
  12. 97Percent claims “rapid fire guns” are not used for hunting or home defense but doesn’t define the term.
  13. 97Percent claims popular semi-automatic firearms are “weapons of war.”
  14. 97Percent claims constitutional carry results in increased homicide rates.
  15. 97Percent’s advisory board is stocked with radical anti-gun extremists, including a former president of the Brady campaign.
Mark Oliva, public affairs director for the National Shooting Sports Foundation, the trade association for the firearm industry, said 97Percent “masquerades as a centrist organization when in reality, it is just another radical element similar to the other gun control groups vying for attention.”



Funny....but all of those things are the exact same things the rabid, anti-gun extremists are demanding.....and telling us if we don't give in to their demands, they will take even more of our 2nd Amendment Rights away from us...
