Widespread disruption in the area of Firearms, Guns Politics, and Gun Control. What Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and what Wikipedia:Wikipedia is an encyclopedia Wikipedia:Here to build an encyclopedia WP:Verify WP:NPOV WP:MOS

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and the community of people who build it: It combines many features of general and specialized encyclopedias, almanacs, and gazetteers. Wikipedia is not a soapbox, an advertising platform, a vanity press, an experiment in anarchy or democracy, an indiscriminate collection of information, or a web directory. It is not a dictionary, a newspaper, or a collection of source documents, although some of its fellow Wikimedia projects are. —Wikipedia:Five pillars

Sources

Sources must verify the text. Deleting a good faith edit because you don't like the source is wrong. If you have a better source you should add it. Primary does't mean bad[1] Secondary doesn't mean good[2]

mos

Rewrite the source in your own words see Help:How to mine a source This article (and the entire topic of of Gun Control) is subject to discretionary sanctions.

WP:NPOV says that ALL reliably sourced viewpoints must be represented. Taking one viewpoint and declaring it to be WP:The Truth is a violation of this.
WP:OR WP:SYNTH making claims which are not explicitly made by sources is not permitted.
