BREAKING: FBI Makes Powerful New Announcement, Libs Hate It

According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), more Americans are embracing their Second Amendment rights.
On Saturday, the FBI announced that it received over 200,000 requests for background checks for firearms purchases on Black Friday. This number sets a new record for background checks in one day.
This number, which was reported by the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System, represents a significant increase in the number of gun owners. The previous record for background checks on a single day was 185,713 in 2016. On Saturday, the total number was 203,086. Both records were set on Black Friday.
While the number of background checks has clearly risen, it’s unclear how many guns were purchased on Saturday. However, it is likely that the number of weapons sold was higher than the number of background checks, because consumers sometimes purchase more than one gun in a single transaction.
On Wednesday, Attorney General Jeff Sessions ordered a review of the NICS, which is a government database that federally licensed gun sellers use for background checks. This was in response to the Sutherland Springs church shooting that left 26 people dead. The shooter who carried out the attack was not included in the system, despite having a criminal record in the military for domestic violence. This enabled him to “legally” purchase the weapons he used in the attack.
