When a gun owner brings a firearm into a home, business, or community, that gun owner becomes responsible for the use or misuse of the firearm. Responsible gun ownership means RESPONSIBLE.

Parents and adults are responsible for safe practices in their homes and communities. Our hearts are with the victims and survivors of Apalachee.

Under Measure 114, people who own large-capacity magazines before Measure 114 is implemented have an affirmative defense which allows them to retain those magazines. Large-capacity magazines manufactured in Oregon after the implementation date will be required by the manufacturer to have a stamp on the magazine indicating the product was purchased after the law was implemented.

All the guns in Texas, a state known for being heavily armed, did not prevent the shootings at Uvalde, the Allen Mall, El Paso Walmart, Santa Fe High School, Sutherland Springs Church, the Dallas Police shooting, or either of the Fort Hood shootings.

Texas has seen nine mass shootings over the last 14 years while lawmakers have steadily loosened restrictions on carrying fi****ms.

From the late Justice Scalia in his opinion in Columbia v Heller: "Like most rights, the right secured by the Second Amendment is not unlimited...nothing in our opinion should be taken to cast doubt on longstanding prohibitions on the possession of fi****ms by felons and the mentally ill, or laws forbidding the carrying of fi****ms in sensitive places such as schools and government buildings, or laws imposing conditions and qualifications on the commercial sale of arms."

Increasing standards or firearm ownership is well within the 2A right and is shown by peer-reviewed studies to reduce gun violence and reduce the flow of fi****ms to the criminal market.

District of Columbia v. Heller: Private citizens have the right under the Second Amendment to possess an ordinary type of weapon and use it for lawful, historically established situations such as self-defense in a home, even when there is no relationship to a local militia.
