More Guns For Everyone Found Poem

Trump Administration Advances Plan to Relax Gun-Export Rules found Poem

The Trump administration 
Sought to relax export rules for American small arms,
 including semiautomatic rifles, handguns, and sniper rifles.

Because the NRA said 
the solution to gun violence
Is more guns
 for everyone in the world

Everyone should be able
 to buy American made weapons
The best in the world after all
And everyone in the world 
needs what the US 
Wants to sell
?
The shift,
 is championed by gunmakers
 who say it
 will make them more competitive 
in the international market. 

Critics argue 
an export policy 
that favors commercial interests
 could put the national security
 of the United States at risk 
or harm diplomatic efforts.?“

 “This decision is also politically tone-deaf 
as our nation reckons 
with a gun violence epidemic.”
?A State Department spokesman 
said that the change
 would ease the regulatory burden 
on American gun makers
 and allow them to compete better globally.

Currently, the Department of State 
monitors exports of nearly all weapons 
.
“The world of firearms exports 
is full of questionable, dubious characters.”

the Department of Justice
 and Department of Homeland Security
 criticized the change 

because it could make it
 easier for transnational criminal organizations
 or terrorists to get American-made guns.

But the NRA
They don’t care
More guns for all
Is the solution to all gun violence

And sadly,  our President 
Has sold his soul
To the NRA

Who offered him 
Millions of dollars
In blood money


note: this may be too political and in your face but I don't care. I have had enough of this nonsense. We must stop the carnage in our streets! That’s my two cents worth and I am sticking to my guns pun very much intended.
