A new report issued by the U.S. Department of Justice’s Bureau of Justice Statistics that examines where criminals get their guns offers a disturbing statistic: Data showed that a whopping 43% of the prisoners surveyed had obtained it off the street or from the underground market, while 7% had found it at the scene of the crime and 6% had stolen it. Additionally, 25% had obtained it from a family member or friend, or as a gift. The survey added, “Among prisoners who possessed a firearm during the offense for which they were imprisoned, 7% of state and 10% of federal prisoners serving a sentence in 2016 bought or traded for the firearm from a gun shop or gun store.”

Please, you know there are about 15-20 languages this needs to be posted in to be legal.

Fake news. I have never seen this sign at MOA before.

Like in the tunnel way area of the entrance. Nobody looks there. Not sure why I did but thought it was weird placement. Either way, no impact on me...or the criminals who carry there all the time I’m sure.
