Guns flew off store shelves after shootings in Atlanta and Boulder, Colorado, last month that left more than a dozen people dead in each attack. Those shootings coincided with a pair of gun-control bills passed by the US House of Representatives. Also, millions of Americans received thousands of dollars in stimulus checks last month, which helped contribute to the boost in gun sales.About 4.
Republican senators are expected to oppose the measures, which will require support from all 50 Democrats and at least 10 Republicans in the Senate to establish the filibuster-proof majority needed to pass the bills before President Biden can sign either bill into law.Biden urged both federal law makers to pass gun-control legislation in the aftermath of the March 22 grocery store shooting in Boulder that left 10 people dead, including a local police officer.
Yes.. but! Don Lemon has this book out.....
Has nothing to do with the mass shootings that weren’t race driven and the other that wasn’t done by “a white guy”. It’s because this 🤡 administration is back to threatening gun bans. It’s actually benefiting the gun industries, so, thanks Biden!
Liberals, the best gun salesmen ever..
Nothing says America like panic buying. The cycle of gun violence continues
When the human society is becoming more and more information-based, the responsibility of the state is becoming greater and greater. Therefore, the state should have more restrictions on individuals, and the state has the responsibility to protect everyone.(2/2)
Majority of Americans including GOP support sensible gun control laws like background checks with no loopholes! Absolutely no need for assault weapons with large magazines capacity & STOP continuous NRA RW GOP lies that the government is going to take away our guns!
It’s those stimulus checks combined with tax returns. I bought 2 rifles last month and each time I was chatting with the employees/customers and each time we talked abt buying the guns with our stimulus money. No one ever mentioned the shootings as a reason.
Police brutally in America
Hahahahaha That’s one of only three months. Do you realize what a bad headline and what sensationalist bullshit you peddle? My god. And I am for gin control. You idiots. Or maybe it’s your readers. NotfarfromFox
These gun nut idiots are trained to do this every shooting and they still have no idea. Good boy, sit boy! 😝
The fbi knew the shooter was a criminal. Arrested back in 2018 for 3rd degree assault. Mentally ill. And still they let him fly right through their web. Almost as if it was ORCHESTRATED THAT WAY in order to pass unconstitutional gun control upon the citizens of this country. 🧐🤔
“...than any month so far this year” What a relevant data sample! Please, CNN, hire a journalist or two!
Who would not own a weapon or gun with all the race baiting being spewed out of the mouths of the POTUS And main stream media- Unity flew out the window and anger took its place
Check out Hunter F face
Stimulus fact check: Women bought designers dresses and bags, Majority of men yolo’ed in the stonks, and rest of the people spent on Guns.
Good luck trying to ban those guns...and confiscate them.
The same Americans who said that COVID was a hoax are the same problem we have with the guns, and until we figure that out every day there’s gonna be drama unfortunately....
Yes I'd hope so, I think we're all a little worried about the mental state of people out there. But what makes any one 'mass shooting' prominent?
I bought 2
“Do you have a history of murder, or will this be your first time?”
More than any month so far this year? All 3 of ‘em
would love to see which group is represented in these new purchases bet it would surprise folks
Its barely April lol
Said another way, gun sales highest month out of sample size of 3
Ban guns and ban murder
One has nothing to do with the other. Next CNN will blame Trump, yet again, for something that didn't happen under his watch!!
Fairly pointless statistic
The best choice I've made this year was investing in cryptocurrency and forex trading and earning from home. With the help of Kellybrian_ I've been earning $ 23k weekly I've never regretted this decision. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

What's the point? You have to take out a 2nd mortgage to get ammo.
🤦🏾♀️
So you say
You can't just let everyone own a gun if you don't have control of the mental health problem.
USA is a failed experiment! 245 years. And the grade is an 'F' ChrisCuomo
Good
And how did that turn out? Ask the folks in California.
Correction: the Guns have flown off the shelf all the past year b/c anti-American Marxist politicians are at risk of violating the 2A and want to disarm the people under increasingly authoritarian one party rule. Or you can pretend it’s in response to your BS narrative. 😂
Whats new? This happens ALL the time! Gun control? Naive thinking by now. Just kill each other🤷♂️ i bet most of those people call themselves Christians. Eh i guess you cant expect christians to care for others when they expect the world to end with violence.
When I look at America and their guns laws, I ask myself, what the hell is wrong with Americans. When so much carnage happens at the hands of idiots, I just don’t understand America’s compass for common sense and societal human decency.
Yay so more shootings can get underway ASAP
Just what you need America, more weapons. Haven't you worked it out yet?
DamnRight Plus Biden is threatening an executive order to limit gun rights!!!!
Yes. People need to arm themselves for protection
That's right, America. Your solution for guns is....MORE GUNS! Real smart, folks. Real smart.
Shame.... Insecurity is a horrible feeling, especially when the perpetrators are armed.. It really is not the way forward for peace of mind.. Not every person has the ability to kill or seriously main an assailant and live with that in your subconscious for ever..
🤣🤣 ive heard dogs and cats are now allowed to have guns in US
So there is a national background check?
The FBI conducted this ratio
A nation sadly out of control ;mass slaughter of first graders, high school students, little kids in church, 20somethings at a concert, people shopping, on and on and on it goes ; with no end in sight ; who knows who will be next to suffer from some senseless act of shooting

Looking for a great gift – look no more! These days when the old pictures filled with dust, without the new ones stored somewhere in your phone or computer – Memories are lost or forgotten. Pic Stop inc. Can help you with that...
Word of Mouth feels that these are not really FBI agents. Last time I checked the FBI was closed down so how are they able to do their job? Have the FBI investigate the New Arms dealers for atmosphere weapons yet
So you get rid of all the guns what then? But you won't in reality criminals will still have them of course, their price on the black market will skyrocket. And if you did manage to collect all the guns, then knives machetes etc would be the order of the day methinks.
If bad people want guns they will find them!! We have our constitutional right to bear arms
Good. That means that the POS that wants to commit a mass shooting will have to think one of their intended victims might be packing. protectyourself
We are getting ready for the aftermath of the Floyd Trial. When our families are in jeopardy, we will put holes in those who mean to do us harm.
But how many guns were bought at gun shows or privately without background checks? That's the bigger problem
So they are doing their job!! Too bad most of the shooters didn't have a record when THEY SHOULD have if the police and judges had done their JOB!!
Why are there never shootings at gun shows or shops?
🤦♂️ Americans
NRA love mass shootings
Wehey!! Keen em coming more guns in the states means more shooting and more business for gun suppliers - eventually, hopefully you’ll all shoot each other to a level unseen before and only then someone may or may not realise that your given right to bare arms really is fooked
Ya shoot those gun murderers
ABOUT DAMN TIME FOLKS TO THEIR OWN SECURITY IN THEIR OWN HANDS
That’s what happens when the left politicizes every fucking thing
There is 3 things that sells guns. 1) family 2) Hollywood 3) fear But nothing sells more guns faster than a democrat saying tge words gun control. ( this goes in with fear.)
Insecure losers. 🙄
There should be an AUTOMATIC ONE MONTH WAITING PERIOD EXTENSION established after ANY MASS SHOOTING. Slow down the over-exuberant weapons purchases.
I bet its all the new gun owners from 2020 who are hooked now..
Let's just hope they don't fly through those background checks and pass just anyone.
The solution to gun violence is more guns? smgdh
It's almost like gun companies make profits from mass shootings, I wonder why they lobby do hard for politicians who don't want to fix the mass shooting problem. It's almost like they want us to die...
I couldn’t have said it better myself 😌
Maybe we should ban ammunition because the 2nd Amendment provides NO RIGHT TO KEEP OR CARRY AMMUNITION. People could still take their stupid selfies carrying a super ridiculous assault weapon. Guns could still be used for protection...as a club.
I think this is just bad for Police...they want to be safer on patrol...they should advocate for gun safety...
bad guys don’t use laws to purchase firearms legally 🤡.
I’d like to buy more guns but ammo is hard to come by. Also, safe is full.
Guns and ammunition have been scarce for over a year now. There’s about 20-30 big reasons for that, starting with the pandemic and including the presidential election and riots.
Bahahahahahahahahaha TheAmericanWay
One reason I'm so very glad I don't live in the United States - access to guns far too easy and seems to be a culture built around guns for solving problems instead of mental health treatment and social safety nets are sorely lacking.
About bomb sales?
Oh goodie so we can have even More 'bad day' club members.
How dumb can humans be USA: YES
Jokes on them. Ammo is almost impossible to find or waaay overpriced.
I understand why but in reality it’s like throwing gasoline onto a fire in hope it will quench it.
Canada and Mexico both need to 'Build those walls'!!!
Wait, background checks? We have those already? Huh....who knew?
FOOLS ' NRA THE MONEY THEY GAVE TO PASS GUN LAWS & GUN OWNERS HAVE MADE IT EASY TO GET GUNS ' ! WHAT DO WE TO THE PEOPLE WHO KILL US BY THE LAW ' WE DON'T PUT THEM TO DEATH ' WE FEED THEM FOR LIFE ! AMERICA IS WIDE OPEN ' BY LAW OR PLEA CAN RAPE,ROB & KILL ' AT WILL ! SAD !!
And not one ‘good guy’ has shot the ‘bad guy’ before he kills! 🤷🏼♀️
Funny, I own a rifle and a crossbow for hunting, a shotgun for home protection and a handgun for personal protection. Buying anything more would simply be overkill. I've got far better things to spend my hard earned money on.....like my kids!
$1400.00.
Once again, the rubes buy into the scare tactics of the NRA and the GQP.
How is this different from the collapse of a society?
The overwhelming majority of the time a firearm is ineffective at self-defense or worsens situations where it is used in self-defense, it is the rare happening where it helps. And like in Hacksaw Ridge a gun is only good as long as you are alive...
Liability insurance for every gun owned in America
Because that's what we need is more guns out there 😒
So we already gun haven let's get more is the crazies answers..
It was this summer when the country was burning. Stimmy Guns.
'murica
....less guns EQUALS less shootings.....just saying
America is obsessed with guns. It says alot about their culture when violence is normal and any mention of sex makes them flip their lid. I'm forever grateful to live in a country where I dont have to worry that a family member or friend is killed by cunts with guns
Funny how the right always says the left fakes these shootings to promote gun control. Seems more likely the NRA would commit these crimes to boost sales.
Goes like this . you can not spell ( Brain ) out of America . but BRITAIN do back up checks and you can spell ( Brain ) out of Britain .
That is why the GOP/NRA will do nothing. They love mass shootings just for the monetary incentive.
Well, Joe Biden is good at one thing - ensuring we buy more guns. Thanks, Joe! 2A
Those damn background checks that never happen.
America is the greatest country in the world.
NOVAVAX UP STOCK 🚀🚀🚀
In the west, people buy guns for hunting, target shooting, etc. Not to go shoot people. Leave it to MSM to make it all about killing people.
All hail democrat gaslighting and hyperbole. The best gun salespersons in history.
Look we have BackgroundChecks
not a good feeling
Awesome! We the people have to protect ourselves. Since yall are pushing this shit naritive of defund the police. Fucking joke.
The irony: How many of those guns were purchased with stimulus checks?
So the American formula goes like this... More mass shootings? Let's buy more guns! Oy.
Gun industry loves shootings. Drives sales. Don't kid yourself.
And the sick, fucked up cycle continues. People die for gun sales.
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Ridiculous country
I would like to bet that the majority of those Gun sales are high powerd automatic weapons before they are regulated in some way .
I managed to get my students start up capital of $900 and traded it and I got $2400 within 70 hours of trading in a week. Trade today and stand a chance of winning big I always make profit from the market irrespective of that. Send a DM to know how ... Let's activate money
America! Fuck yeah! Suck it Biden.
you fucks are whacko
Damn! FEAR😬
background checks are already required? I thought liberal democrats were demanding that
Really America, you’re safer with MORE guns? Crazy.
I thought there were no background checks?
Hunter Biden got a gun and how in the world did he pass a background check? But remember guns don't kill people, people kill people!
When will they ever learn......?
The cycle continues
What do people do when a person under the influence drives and kills people. Do they go out and buy more alcohol?
Likely the same people buying the weapons... only 3% of Americans own 50% of all weapons. Gun hoarders are the ones doing this, not normal people.
and that surprises you?!
well yeah.. gotta protect your self, people that dont have a CCW and dont carry are just throwing their lives away
Because more guns is clearly the solution to reducing gun deaths. That makes total sense.
There needs to be a moratorium on gun sales due to the national paranoia and criminal activities...
So everyone gonna be the hero now? If a kid beats another kid with a stick we don't make sure other kids have sticks.
Insanity. Only in America
An indictment that after mass shootings, arms sales increase instead of people voluntarily giving up their weapons so that the streets will be safer at some point. Streets and cities should be gun-free ... but believe it will be decades before that happens ...
Guns are flying of shelves because the Democrats want to ban them. Funny as gun ownership by people of color increases the Dem push to outlaw them increases
this is why the NRA/GOP don't want the bloodshed to stop. there's too much money to be made off murder.
I’m tired of this country being such gun fanatics🤬🤬🤬
Thanks Democrats
🙄
Yeah, y’all need to chill out. I’ve been trying to build a canned 300BLK pistol for about a year now, & can’t find parts.
May have something to do with the Lefts call for defunding the police and the increase in hate and division coming from the Democrats?! Just a guess!
Gun and ammo companies when they create deals after a recent shooting:
God Bless America!
We need control
Notice there is no validity to CNN’s statement. What influence does destroying property and looting have in fine sales? What influence does the statement about no more semi-auto rifles? No statistical support to statement
So the answer to putting out a fire is either water or a fire extinguisher. To stop many traffic fatalities its to wear a seatbelt in a car or helmet on a motorcycle, but to end mass shootings its to have more guns on the street? That doesn't work at all
Or because another president says we are banning certain weapons. Its almost like we go thru a cycle.
If there are background checks then what's the issue?
Black Lives Matter
We’re getting our first guns soon!
Just like a buy a snowmaking machine every time there's a blizzard.
No money for food but plenty for more guns, when will America grow up?
Great!!
Anti-gun rhetoric fail.
Every law abiding citizen should carry. An armed society is a polite society.
2A is a cult
The irony is that some of those guns will be used for mass shootings. That’s the irony. More guns + time = bad. It’s that simple.
Perhaps when the people in the government go around getting people killed with no consequences, the people feel they have to protect themselves.
Totally normal country.
You have 2 hands... How many guns can you actual use at once? And when you're drunk off your ass from too much PabstBlueRibbon how the hell will you react to get these multiple guns to shoot the boogie man in your apartment? It's white fear and ignorance, not defense.
Looks like Americans really want their guns and don't trust the government to protect them. 🤔.
The US clearly has a mental health crisis and not a gun control issue. Problem is ppl with mental health issues don’t vote therefore both sides of the isle choose not to address the issue.
hope they ban this shit
How did Hunter Biden pass the background check?
Me thinks it's more about the Biden Administration's policies rather than mass shootings
Makes total sense. The answer to all the shootings you have in the U.S is more guns. Do any other first world countries have such lax gun laws?
This what happens when you talk gun control
Never ending cycle
We need more background checks too many unstable mofos getting guns and murdering people.
Sounds a bit/lot counter intuitive.
I’m forever reminded of jeremyscahill’s line: “A sick country filled with guns.” (
But how many were 3D printed?
All the good guys with guns who’ll never intervene in a mass shooting buying more guns. Sweet.
I mean joe Biden gave everyone $1400.
Americans killing each other. sounds good to me. you reap what you sow.
April fool's? You guys are completely insane. Gun's aren't making you safe.
The dumbest country I. The world who keeps selling more guns k owing they already have major gun problems
