The firearm issue that should be uniting us in outrage: ghost guns
of a fatal shooting. Angry as a journalist who has written about young lives lost to gun violence and repeatedly watched solutions that would keep children safer fall between political divides.
If there is one firearm issue that should unite us in outrage, it is ghost guns. Those weapons benefit no one except for the companies that produce those parts and profit from them, knowing they are ending up in the hands of people who wouldn’t be eligible to get firearms from a licensed dealer, including teenagers.
— ATF has linked ghost guns to 692 homicides and nonfatal shootings through 2021, including mass killings and school shootings.— ATF estimated that the company Polymer80 was responsible for more than 88 percent of the ghost guns recovered by police between 2017 and 2021, though there are nearly 100 manufacturers selling parts, or full kits, which can be made into unserialized guns, a list compiled by Everytown for Gun Safety shows.
We now know a 16-year-old in New York created a “ghost gun factory” in his bedroom. We now know a 13-year-old and 16-year-old in Maryland were arrested at school while carrying ghost guns. We now know that an 18-year-old in Virginia who was an admitted drug dealer with mental health issues and too young to buy a handgun from a licensed dealer used a ghost gun to kill two schoolmates.Young people are getting their hands on largely untraceable guns with the ease of ordering school supplies.
