The Good News - Gun Safety 10/22/24 reair

All states should consider improving gun safety laws. Each year in America over 500 people die from accidental gun shot wounds. The GOOD News is that states like Minnesota, Illinois, Maryland, and Colorado have enacted new gun safety laws. These new laws will expand background checks before a gun purchase is permitted, bans on high-powered firearms, and restrictions on unregistered “ghost guns.”
