There is no gun show loophole and guns are not the leading cause of death among children.
GOP Kentucky Congressman Thomas Massie provided clarity for millions of Americans regarding two anti-gun myths promoted by the left-wing establishment.
First, Massie got ATF Director Steven Dettelbach to admit there is no such thing as a gun show loophole and “there never was.”

Massie also exposed a federal government trick in which they count 18 and 19-year-old citizens who are shot and killed as “child” gun deaths.
Often, these deaths are actually gang related.
Thanks to the dishonest figures, Democrats have been promoting the false claim that firearms are “the leading cause of death for children.”
Yesterday, I dispelled two myths commonly invoked by gun-grabbers.
1. ATF Dir. Dettelbach admitted to me there is no such thing as a gun show loophole.
2. The ATF and media artificially inflate childhood firearm death statistics by including 18- and 19-year-old gang members. pic.twitter.com/0h5favthkf
