Firearm sales have TRIPLED since 2000.

Fun fact: Gun sales (and production) don't dip under Democratic leadership. USA is world's number one arms dealer (all weapons)

Every state is involved in the firearms industry, even Hawaii.

Truly disgusting, defense theatre that costs countless lives so the gun industry gets rich.

Meanwhile since 1993 homicide rates (and all violent crime in fact) have steadily decreased. Interesting.

They often go up because people get paranoid that their gun will be taken away. When Biden was elected, AR15 sales sky rocketed.
