Report: Gun Sales Surge in States Adopting ‘Radical Measures’ Against 2A Rights
Mark Oliva, NSSF Managing Director of Public Affairs, noted, “April…[witnessed an] uptick of 1,369,296 FBI National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) verifications.”
He suggested this increase “shows that there continues to be a steady appetite for lawful firearm ownership even as certain state governors and legislators are taking radical measures to infringe on the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens to possess firearms.”
Oliva noted the desire to posses firearms is particularly acute when it comes to AR-15s, AK-47s, and variants of both rifle types.
He pointed out that Washington and Illinois–the two states which adopted “assault weapons” bans this year–saw sharp increases in NICS checks for gun sales.

German Chancellor Warns Ukraine Not to Attack Russian Territory with NATO Weapons
Scholz said that as such, Ukraine is not permitted to shell Russian territory with weapons supplied by Germany and added that he believed other Western powers supplying arms would have made similar demands of Kyiv.
The German leader did not stipulate, however, if this rule would apply to Crimea, which both Ukraine and Russia claim rights to but has been under control of Moscow since Vladimir Putin illegally annexed the territory in 2014.
The warnings from Scholz came as he confirmed that Ukraine can expect to receive ammunition for the German-made Gepard anti-aircraft gun starting from August of this year. He said that the production lines are currently being set up, but that it may take some time before shipments are able to be made.
South Korean Union Official Dies After Setting Himself on Fire for May Day
South Korean labor unions used the communist holiday of “International Workers’ Day” to press demands for higher wages, better benefits, and shorter working hours.
The most militant of labor organizations, the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions (KCTU), vowed to hold a general strike in July if its demands were not met.
The 50-year-old man who burned himself to death, identified by the surname “Yang” in South Korean media reports, was an officer in the Gangwon provincial chapter of the Korean Construction Workers’ Union (KCWU), which is affiliated with the KCTU.
Yang was the subject of a racketeering investigation launched in February. He allegedly participated in forcing construction companies to hire union members and pay exorbitant union expenses.
Prosecutors reportedly intended to charge him with extorting almost $60,000 from construction companies over the past year.
Mother who starved son to death detained under Mental Health Act
A mother who starved her three-year-old son to death by causing him to join her in a religious fast when she was suffering from paranoid schizophrenia has been detained in hospital under the Mental Health Act.
Olabisi Abubakar’s mind was “thrown off balance” by the Covid lockdown and concerns about her immigration status and she began denying herself and her child, Taiwo, food, hoping fasting and prayers would save the world from coronavirus.
Abubakar, 42, was found not guilty of manslaughter and child cruelty by reason of insanity by a jury at Cardiff crown court but on Tuesday Mrs Justice Jefford ordered her to be remain detained in a clinic in south Wales.
The case came after two other high-profile lockdown child deaths in Wales: Logan Mwangi, five, was murdered by his mother, her partner and his stepson after largely vanishing from sight during Covid; and the parents of teenager Kaylea Titford were jailed for manslaughter last month after she died morbidly obese, having been neglected during lockdown.
