Re: Officials negotiating with man reportedly holding people hostage at a Colleyville, Texas, synagogue
From the realm of never let a good crisis go to waste: Local newspaper ran an article today that was provided by the Texas Tribune. Seems the Giffords folks have jumped on this incident and are proclaiming (without any information from LE on where how perpetrator obtained firearm) that the perpetrator was easily able to obtain his firearm due to Texas weak gun control laws that do not require universal background checks on all firearm sales. They then went to the "ghost gun" used in El Paso in 2019. They will be pushing for Congress to enact both universal checks and banning sales of gun parts. Mid-Term elections can't come soon enough.
