Schumer, Arbiter of Evil, Hangs Sinful Label on Firearm Retailers\">remarks<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;to media pushing his gun control agenda, Sen. Schumer said, \u201c\u2026the evil gun dealers, pushed by the NRA, have used gun shows as a major way to get guns into the hands of people without a background check.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What is evil is the senator\u2019s twisted distortions to bastardize the truth to disarm Americans. Sen. Schumer knows he\u2019s lying. He knows all commercial sales of firearms, whether at a brick-and-mortar store, at a gun show or initiated online, must be completed in a face-to-face-transfer with the required background check forms and verification from the FBI\u2019s National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sen. Schumer is lying. That\u2019s evil. Yet, he casually slings insults to those small business owners who follow the law and sell firearms to law-abiding citizens. That\u2019s the mom-and-pop shops on downtown street corners and the destination big-box retailers too, that sell camping equipment, fishing tackle and hunting gear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said firearm retailers are evil. That\u2019s not the conviction he applied to the murderers who commit their horrendous crimes. That\u2019s not the final word for those who criminally misuse a firearm, who wantonly ignore laws and prey on innocent Americans. Sen. Schumer reserved the harsh and final verdict to one of the most regulated industries in America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ignorant Hate<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Sen. Schumer slapped the label on gun owners during a New York City press conference where he spun tales about home-built firearms, or so-called \u201cghost guns.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019re as easy to buy and easier to assemble than Legos,\u201d he told reporters. Which is another lie. Unless of course toddlers are using drill presses, power rotary tools, metal files along with other hand tools like hammers and screwdrivers, he knows this is another lie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s also assuming that Legos also now fall under the 1934 National Firearms Act, the 1968 Gun Control Act and the&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nssf.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/3D-printing.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"sen-schumer-arbiter-of-evil-hangs-sinful-label-on-firearm-retailers\" title=\"Sen. Schumer, Arbiter of Evil, Hangs Sinful Label on Firearm Retailers\">1988 Undetectable Firearms Act<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;to ensure the Legos meet the required specifications, including the 3.7 ounces of metal that must be part of the overall design. Sen. Schumer\u2019s far-fetched comparisons dare to assume then that like all firearms, Legos would also be barred from being possessed by prohibited individuals. If Sen. Schumer were less prone to throw incendiary rhetoric and actually study the laws he\u2019s maligning, he\u2019d know children, criminals and those adjudicated mentally-defective by a judge are prohibited from possessing firearms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hate You, Not the Gun<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Sen. Schumer\u2019s problem isn\u2019t with the gun or the gun retailer. He\u2019s surrounded by guns. As part of the Senate\u2019s leadership, he is constantly surrounded by Capitol Hill police that carry guns to provide for his safety. He went along with Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and surrounded Capitol Hill with National Guardsmen carrying guns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clearly, if Sen. Schumer were so reviled by guns, he\u2019d demand they were nowhere in his presence. That\u2019s not that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His slandering of regulated, licensed and law-abiding firearm retailers is because they serve the more than&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nssf.org\/taking-stock-of-record-setting-2020-firearm-year\/?hilite=%2721%27%2C%27million%27\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"sen-schumer-arbiter-of-evil-hangs-sinful-label-on-firearm-retailers\" title=\"Sen. Schumer, Arbiter of Evil, Hangs Sinful Label on Firearm Retailers\"><strong>21 million<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;Americans who rejected Sen. Schumer\u2019s control over their lives and chose instead to protect themselves. It must be infuriating that 8.4 million of them \u2013 including a record number of New Yorkers \u2013 bought a firearm for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sen. Schumer\u2019s only borrowing a page from President Joe Biden\u2019s playbook. President Biden, from the debate stage while running for the White House, called firearm manufacturers \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nssf.org\/called-industry-enemy\/?hilite=%27enemy%27\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"sen-schumer-arbiter-of-evil-hangs-sinful-label-on-firearm-retailers\" title=\"Sen. Schumer, Arbiter of Evil, Hangs Sinful Label on Firearm Retailers\"><strong>the enemy<\/strong><\/a>.\u201d This is the industry that provides the U.S. military with their small arms, law enforcement their tools and citizens the means by which to exercise Second Amendment rights and protection for themselves and their loved ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is an industry that\u2019s veteran-heavy. These are men and women who literally swore oaths to defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic \u2013 the cost of which could include their lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In President Biden\u2019s estimate, being a firearm manufacturer is enough to earn the label of \u201cenemy.\u201d To sell a firearm in accordance with the law and regulation is enough in Sen. Schumer\u2019s mind to earn the label \u201cevil.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This isn\u2019t Sen. Schumer\u2019s first time going off half-cocked, if the pun is allowed. Sen. Schumer threatened U.S. Supreme Court Justices they would \u201cpay the price\u201d if they didn\u2019t vote his way on issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The left-leaning publication <em>The Atlantic,\u00a0<\/em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theatlantic.com\/ideas\/archive\/2020\/03\/chuck-schumer-supreme-court-comments\/607588\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"sen-schumer-arbiter-of-evil-hangs-sinful-label-on-firearm-retailers\" title=\"Sen.
