Guns
Hate speech has become more deadly due to the easy availability of firearms. White supremacists, for instance, use firearms to intimidate, threaten, and attack political opponents. Armed opposition is a hallmark for hate groups and civilian paramilitary organisations. These violent, ideological and racist extremists will not be perceived as a threat to the public if guns are removed from these groups.
Hate
Last year, Jason Hayes, a member of the LGBTQ community from New Jersey, organized a national rally to stop gun violence and protect LGBTQ civil rights. Nine people traveled from Los Angeles to support Jason and his cause, calling it DISARM HATES. This bill, which is a companion bill for the Hate Crimes Prevention Act, is now back in Congress. This Act would prevent those convicted in hate crimes misdemeanors from buying or possessing firearms.
Gun laws
The Disarm Hate Act, a new federal bill, would bar gun buyers from buying guns from people who have committed hate crimes. While the Disarm Hate Act would not only be dependent on existing state hate crime laws, it would also prohibit people convicted of these types of crimes from purchasing guns. Background checks would be required for prospective gun buyers under the Disarm Hate Act. This requirement is already required to by the FBI.
Extreme risk laws
To prevent mass shootings and gun homicide, extreme risk laws were made. This law gives petitioners permission to ask a court to temporarily remove a gun from a person who is potentially dangerous. These laws aren't yet widely used by the public but states are starting to use them in certain instances. These laws have been effective in some cases to prevent mass shootings or gun homicides. Below are some examples.
Pulse nightclub shooting
The Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando, Florida, has inspired a new documentary, Disarm Hate, that follows nine LGBTQ people in a national rally to end gun violence and protect LGBTQ civil rights. Harvey Fierstein directs the film. He narrates how the activists battle the NRA to fight for gun reform. They also challenge America's obsession with gun violence. Here's a look.
Sandy Hook Promise
Many groups, including the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence (Gays Against Guns), CeaseFire PA (CeaseFire PA), and Generation Progress Fund, have endorsed Sandy Hook Promise to Disarm Hate Act. The legislation was introduced last year in response to the Pulse nightclub shooting, which claimed the lives of 49 people. However, it died in committee. The bill was reintroduced by Sen. Casey this year after the tragic anniversary at Pulse. While the Disarm Hate Act is a far way from being enacted, community members can take steps to further advance it.
National Coalition to End Gun Violence
The Coalition to Stop Gun Violence (Coalition to Stop Gun Violence) is an advocacy group dedicated to the reduction of gun violence in the United States. The Coalition is comprised of 47 member organisations that engage in policy work, advocacy and public education regarding gun violence issues. Its affiliate, the Educational Fund to Stop Gun Violence (EFSV), focuses on education. To be kept informed about developments in the gun violence issue, you can sign up for email alerts.
Anti-Defamation League
The Anti-Defamation League (ADL), has a strong track record of fighting hate and extremism throughout the world. In the past, it has brought attention to violent incidents involving white supremacists, such as the shooting at the Chabad of Poway synagogue in Poway, California. In recent years, the organization has partnered with the U.S. in fighting anti-Semitism within the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum to train law enforcement officers. ADL played a major role in the inaugural White House Conference on Hate Crime. It helped to strengthen community partnerships with law enforcement officials.

How to make a Deer Blind

The most common type of deer blinds is box blinds (also known as box stands). These blinds consist of a box made of wood with walls and a roof. Boxes are very popular because they are easy to construct and transport.
A tree stand, another type deer blind, is also available. Tree stands are made to look natural, so no one would guess they were there. Most tree stands are permanently attached with trees.
