Amid reports the Justice Department is weighing banning transgender people from owning firearms in response to last month’s mass shooting at a Minneapolis Catholic church, the National Rifle Association said Friday it will oppose any blanket rule that limits Second Amendment rights.
Their declaration comes after CNN and other outlets reported that Justice Department leadership is considering whether it can use its rulemaking authority declare that people who are transgender are mentally ill and can lose their rights to possess firearms.
It’s nice to see the gun organization likes guns more than they hate trans people
Honestly given the slippery slope of ideas like this, I’m not sure the NRA had any choice but to feel like this. Now whether they actually do anything about it is another story. It’s probably just lip service.
really surprising, they’ve been given similar choices before and have historically fought against the 2a rights of minorities
