D.C. mayor, police chief want to keep untraceable 'ghost guns' out of District

[TexasTowelie]

The number of homicides committed in the District with untraceable, home-built “ghost guns” has risen to four, D.C. authorities said Friday as they proposed new legislation to prohibit kits used to make these new types of firearms.

One of the killings occurred in 2018, two last year and one this year, police said.

The numbers, up from a count police had provided earlier this week, added a new sense of urgency as the District’s mayor, police chief and forensics lab director said action was necessary to stop the flow of ghost guns into the city.

“The message we’re sending with this legislation is simple,” Mayor Muriel E. Bowser (D) said at a news conference. “If you assist with, participate in or profit from bloodshed in our community, we will hold you accountable.”

1. Does this legislation allow for action

against the people who created the means to create these weapons? I am betting not, since Big Business is beyond our lowly lives and is too important to allow such drivel from we lesser folks. So, that part about '...profit from bloodshed...' will only apply to individuals that they want to make an example of, and you can bet it won't be a CEO...
