2. In 1972, Congress passed a law specifically prohibiting the CPSC from evaluating the safety of guns As a result, there "is not a single federally mandated safety standard or child-proofing requirement for firearms made in the United States." https://t.co/EQ17RHSnnZ — PolitiTweet.org

I wrote about why there are more consumer safety regulations for Teddy Bears - AND TOY GUNS - than for actual guns. It has nothing to do with the 2nd Amendment It was a carve out created in the 1970s by a Congressman who was also on the board of the NRA https://t.co/EQ17RHSnnZ — PolitiTweet.org

FACT: In the United States there are more consumer safety regulations on TEDDY BEARS than GUNS

3. Firearm safety is regulated by the firearm industry, through a group called the Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers’ Institute (SAAMI). SAAMI "does not solicit feedback from the public." https://t.co/EQ17RHSnnZ — PolitiTweet.org
