According to firearmchronicles
So-called ghost guns are one of the current boogiemen for the anti-gun side. They’re terrified that ordinary Americans can assemble firearms at home without getting government permission first. Never mind the bad guys will keep doing so–they’ve been able to do so for years–but instead focus on the law-abiding citizens and penalize them for…what?
Normally, I’d argue they’re penalizing them for the actions of the criminals, but as I’ve noted previously, we have no reason to actually believe these so-called “ghost guns” represent any kind of a real threat or problem. Instead, we get vague reports of a supposedly growing problem without any numbers to provide any context.
Not that it matters to Rhode Island Governor Gina Raimondo.
Rhode Island’s governor said Monday she plans to sign legislation to ban 3D-printed guns and so-called ghost guns that are untraceable.
The General Assembly is expected to soon send the legislation to Democratic Gov. Gina Raimondo for her consideration. “I fully and wholeheartedly support a ban on ghost guns so yes, I do plan to sign it,” she said.
