When caught, gun carriers often say they "forgot" they had a gun in their bag. If true, that's not an encouraging indication about the mental acuity of America's gun owners. But fairly obviously, it's not true. They just have that little respect for laws and rules. 6/x — PolitiTweet.org

In 2019, the TSA apprehended some 4400 guns - but that was 5 guns for every 1 million passengers screened. The 4500 guns as of mid-October 2021 = 11 for every passenger screened. IE gun carrying by air travelers has doubled since before the pandemic. 5/x https://t.co/FwJsjVlmb6 — PolitiTweet.org

American culture valorizes the so-called responsible gun owner. But American law doesn't do much to sift the responsible for the irresponsible. And there are maybe 50 million more guns in Americans purses, belts, and backpacks post-pandemic than there were only two years ago. END — PolitiTweet.org
