On Thursday, Rep. Burgess Owens (R-UT) directly confronted a critic who accused him of "prejudice" as he sent voters to I.D. Two gun control bills were opposed, giving the necessary permission to show up. Owens retreated to vote, saying, "You know what a racist is?" Assuming that I am black because 'I simply do not have the ability to get I-D. Disclaimer: We are able to get I-D (and even using the Internet!) "

Owens said, "I bought my I.D. To drive a car, to get a job, to board a plane, to get prescriptions, and virtually everything in life… so tell me again, why an ID is showing. 'Voter suppression? "

Speaking on the floor of the House on Wednesday, Owens severed support for the Biden administration's bills, which would expand background checks and make private sales of guns more difficult. Talking about gun rights, he said:
These rights protect my life, liberty, and property, were granted to me by God, and D.C. I cannot be taken away by bureaucrats. I grew up in the Deep South at a time when black Americans were unable to defend themselves. After the Civil War, black codes and Jim Crow laws prohibited people of color from owning firearms. In the mid-1950s Martin Luther King Jr. drove firearms for self-protection but his application for a concealed weapons permit was rejected due to racist gun control laws in his state.
As a child, my father witnessed a dispute between his father and a southern white man who thought my grandfather was being insulted and threatened to teach him a lesson. Later that night he went to the house of my grandfather with a flock of friends, standing on the floor-runner of the Model-T Ford. My grandfather was ready; He and his brothers hid on the front porch. As soon as these bullies and cowards reached near the house, they heard the click of the rifles and left as soon as they arrived. Without firing my gun at another human being, my grandfather's right to own a gun ensured his rights to protect his life, liberty, and property.
Listen to what you are doing and delegate. @ BurgessOwens Biden-Push opposes gun control.
"Just as bullies and cowards don't
