Ayanna Pressley claimed Wednesday that gun manufacturers are \u201cinciting violence\u201d against black people while upholding white supremacy.<\/p>\n<p>While speaking at a congressional hearing on firearm manufacturers, Pressley alleged gun manufacturers sell \u201cweapons of war to anyone who wants them\u201d and rake in profits at the expense of communities \u201cforced to deal with the consequences of their greed.\u201d She also alleged that gun manufacturers use \u201cmarketing tactics that spread white supremacy and embolden far-right extremist groups.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2022\/06\/03\/ayanna-pressley-taxpayer-dollars-private-security-house-records-defund-police\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pressley<\/a> then referenced an ad that was displayed at a National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) conference in 2018. She falsely claimed the ad was \u201cpromoted\u201d by the NSSF. Senior adviser at the Giffords Law Center Ryan Busse clarified that the ad displayed at the conference\u00a0was not from the NSSF but rather\u00a0from an AR-15 company.<\/p>\n<p>The ad depicts members of ANTIFA clad in black confronting a group of armed men holding AR-15\u2019s. The ad says \u201cnot today ANTIFA\u201d and lists the cities Berkeley, California; Portland, Oregon; Charlottesville, Virginia; and Boston. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2022\/07\/20\/jerry-nadler-gun-bill-common-use\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">(RELATED: \u2018That\u2019s The Point\u2019: Rep.

Daniels, Killoy and Busse told Pressley repeatedly that the ad was not sponsored by the NSSF, but that the NSSF hosts a trade show and the company displayed the ad on their own.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think the point still remains. As long as gun manufacturers have immunity to sell their weapons of war using harmful marketing tactics, black and brown communities will continue to be targeted and that has got to change. In the face of white supremacy, my neighbors and I are undeterred in the pursuit of healing and the true justice, and we will not let gunmakers incite violence against us with impunity,\u201d Pressley said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Democratic Massachusetts Rep.
