Joe Biden recently cracked down hard on ghost guns. He used the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) to do it.
Biden claims this will help stop crimes done with untraceable guns which aren’t properly using serial numbers or trackable.
The phrase ‘ghost guns’ is actually a ridiculous way to say it. Guns that can’t be traced and are made at home are the oldest American tradition there is. The Pilgrims made them in their workshops.
Here’s what’s behind the ghost gun restrictions and why they are absurd…
‘Grave Threat’ of ‘Ghost Guns’
Biden’s bumbling sidekick, Kamala Harris, recently gave a speech about ghost gun crackdowns in Philadelphia, led by hypocritical PA Attorney General Josh Shapiro.
She praised the measures, saying ghost guns are a “grave threat” to secure cities and towns in America. This is nonsense even on its face.
In fact, untraceable homemade guns are used in about 0.07% of murders each year. What Harris is saying is just plain untrue, and she knows it. Though ghost guns sound scary and they give the federal government another chance to start carefully tracking everyone’s ability to arm themselves.
So the media cheerleads and the leftist politicians sound off.
I joined over 40 of my colleagues in demanding DOJ and ATF stop President Biden’s latest gun grab, which would expand ATF’s regulatory authority & infringe on Americans’ Second Amendment rights.

The Truth About Ghost Guns
The truth about ghost guns is that they kill fewer people than hammers and knives. Biden’s strict new rules through the ATF put a massive amount of red tape around ghost guns and requiring serial numbers, but they won’t actually stop gun crime at all.
In fact, the more the ATF and government focuses on punishing those who exercise their constitutional rights, the more they leave the criminals free to focus on harming people and destroying society.
The truth about violent crime and gun crime is the cause is criminals and left-wing policies regarding criminals.
Loosened bail laws have brought murder rates up to horrific highs; blue cities across the nation are breaking homicide records faster than Sammy Sosa at the baseball diamond broke home run records. This country is in crisis.
Liberal rules around guns won’t protect that. Getting tough on criminals will.
Opinion: Ted Cruz is right. Biden’s ghost gun ban is a distraction from his crime problem. https://t.co/SfFIZWCWO0

The Bottom Line
The new rules through the ATF requiring serial numbers on all parts of “ghost guns” have nothing to do with stopping gun crime. It has to do with closer control and tracking of legal gun owners and eventually seizing and confiscating those weapons.
We’ve seen this play out in many formerly free nations like Australia and it’s 100% obvious what’s coming. This country is being run by a far-left tyrant who’s a puppet for some of the worst globalist ideologies on the planet.
Be very careful about the rhetoric you believe, and don’t fall for scary-sounding terms like “ghost guns.”
