message: I removed the text regarding Pratt's claim about the Aurora, Colorado shooting. His quote is included in full in the source that was cited, and nowhere did Pratt say that the shooting was done as "part of a plot" as the text here claimed. All Pratt said is that the shooting has been exploited by politicians, which is a very different claim. ROG5728 (talk) 18:54, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

message: The statement that "The [Obama] administration in fact has taken no steps to limit gun ownership" is patently false and it is contradicted by the first citation, which clearly says that the Obama admin created a multiple rifle sales reporting requirement in border states (for which the admin was quickly sued by the NRA). It also mentions that Obama has appointed two vehemently anti-gun Supreme Court justices, Sotomayor and Kagan. I went ahead and removed the statement. ROG5728 (talk) 19:02, 27 July 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I am unaware of any anti-gun rulings by either Justice Sotomayor or Kagan. Could you provide a cite? Paul, in Saudi (talk) 06:24, 21 January 2013 (UTC)

message: Here's an article from USA Today with some current data, and their responses to incidents like Uvalde. There are lots of stories like this on the internet.

Beyond NRA: Other gun rights groups spend millions in Washington to influence laws
DONOVAN SLACK, CHELSEY COX
USA TODAY
May 5, 2022
"The Second Amendment is about defending yourself from an attacker, be it a criminal, or a tyrannical government," Johnston said. "And so Americans need to have the same weaponry as the military."
He said no legislation would have prevented what happened in Uvalde, arguing that a determined shooter would have found a way to get a weapon, regardless of age limits or background checks or bans.

message: Addition for consideration in this section.
"Gun Owners of America, a nonprofit lobbying organization that promotes gun rights, wrote about the elimination of the ban on X, formerly Twitter. "Congressional deal cuts funding to the ATF," the organization said, referring to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, "and eliminates a 20+ year old gun ban for veterans. It also temporarily reauthorizes the archaic Undetectable Firearms Act of 1988." Newsweek
