Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney made ridiculous comments about the strict regulations on the sale of wine and liquor compared to the lack of restrictions on the sale of firearms. He suggested that if guns were regulated similarly to alcohol, it could be beneficial.

This is ridiculous because in Philadelphia, purchasing alcohol only requires a license verifying that you're at least 21 years old. However, buying a gun involves passing two background checks: one through the Pennsylvania Instant Check system and another through the National Instant Background Check system.

Felons can legally purchase alcohol in Philly, but cannot legally purchase a gun.

Additionally, the individual in question was only 18 years old and therefore not legally permitted to purchase a handgun.

Mayor Kenney's remarks came after the tragic killing of a Temple University police officer, which was committed with a firearm that police have not yet recovered. While it is uncertain how the shooter obtained the weapon, Kenney used the incident to criticize the lack of restrictions on firearm ownership and purchase in what he called a "gun-crazy state."

He also stated that the second amendment wasn't written for AR-15s, AK-47s and Multiple shot clips.

This argument is silly because if the founding fathers wrote the second amendment so that the people had the necessary arms to fight back against a tyrannical government and the current government is running around with machine guns, you really think the founding fathers would say the people should only have muskets to fight back against a tyrannical government that has machine guns?
