Anthony Brown tweeted the following:

"To understand how we got to this place, we have to revisit the policies that set the stage for tragedies like #Buffalo and #Uvalde.
In the 90s, handguns were deemed more of a threat to our communities than #AssaultWeapons because they were used by Black and Latino men."

Here are other recent tweets from Anthony Brown:

"As a soldier, I was trained to handle military-style #AssaultWeapons.
Ive seen firsthand the carnage they can inflict and the responsibility they require.
I know *damn well* that these weapons have no place in our neighborhoods, let alone, in the hands of an 18-year-old."

"It doesnt have to be like this. An 18-year-old shouldnt be able to purchase an assault weapon. Period.
I have bipartisan legislation ready to pass TODAY to raise the age to buy these deadly weapons to at least 21. We could act TODAY. twitter.com/atrupar/status"
