All this rioting has turned a lot of people into fans of the Second Amendment. If there is one benefit to this nonsense, it seems that Second Amendment has emerged stronger.....
https://www.kiro7.com/news/local/pandemic-protests-cause-soaring-gun-sales/CH7OWR65EJF3FDFUMRU5PQZ2U4/LYNNWOOD, Wash. — New numbers from the FBI showed more people applied for background checks last month than at any other time since the bureau started keeping records.
Gun sales are especially strong in the North Sound, where KIRO 7 News met Dillon Hauck as he went from gun shop to gun shop. “I ask (employees) about a certain firearm, and they said, ‘We’ll get it in when it gets in. We can’t say the timeline of it,’” he told KIRO 7. Hauck’s search for a specific gun lasted an entire morning. “A lot of places are sold out of their stock right now, so I was just curious to see what they had in the (Lynnwood Gun) store,” he said.
In June 2020, across the country, nearly 4 million people applied for background checks. According to the FBI, that is the most people since record-keeping began 22 years ago, with women making up a growing percentage of new gun buyers.
“It’s the craziest thing,” noted Tiffany Teasdale, owner of Lynnwood Gun. “Nobody in the nation, in the gun industry, has seen anything like this when it comes to sales.”

A Seattle sports-talk radio host has given us the template by which many liberals convert to conservativism. This process first became famous when former Philadelphia Mayor Frank Rizzo switched from Democrat to the Republican Party, saying, “A conservative is a liberal who was mugged the night before.” ESPN 710 host Paul Gallant tweeted in June that President Trump was wrong about the violence in Seattle’s CHAZ, only to tweet this weekend that he wants to arm himself for protection against the violent protests.
