NBC News is using the November 14 Rancho Tehama school shooting to whip up fear about guns that are already illegal in the state of California.
Their report revolves around “ghost guns,” which they present as something that can be purchased and assembled in just “a couple of hours.” Their report omits the hours of milling required to complete a lower frame before assembly can happen and, more importantly, they completely omit that gun laws in California require that any homemade gun be affixed with a serial number and entered into the state’s gun registry (like any other gun).
Yes, they mention that Rancho Tehama gunman Kevin Neal’s long guns are already banned by the “assault weapons” law in the state of California, but this admission is sandwiched between descriptions of rifles “with multi-round magazines” and intimations that “ghost gun” legislation needs to be taken up at the federal level. They point to the “loophole on so-called ‘ghost guns’” and assure readers that Sen. Chuck Schumer (D- New York) wants to take action.
