Universal background check = BATF form 4473 = de facto Universal Registration = end of privacy for honest firearm sellers/buyers
It is to no good or honest effect, of course. ALL gun sales by criminals are private sales. They will never submit to either the invasive paperwork or a background check. So they are committing a crime now? So what else is new?
But of course that is not the point. The point is government identifying every citizen who might have a gun - especially those who might conceivably have a beef about the government's ways.
It makes getting a search warrant for a "potentially illegal" weapon much easier ("we need to check your compliance with the law"). It also gives the authorities something to hang a hostile interrogation onto;... "Where is that gun you bought in June, 2013, now? If you don't have it in your possession, whom did you sell it to or give it to,... illegally? If it was stolen, why wasn't that reported within 24 hours as required by law?"
You get the idea. You are now a criminal. "Toss the house for more criminal evidence!"
An unintended (or perhaps intended) result would be a massive black market in guns by formerly law-abiding citizens. Now, of course, they are part of the criminal class.
This is a dream come true in the minds of the burgeoning fascists.
Watched couple minutes of FNS and same over at MTP
Both are a waste of time, all the hours I have wasted over the years...I am embarrassed
Joe Scarborough was announced as the lone “Republican” what a joke
I heard him refer to the Republican party as them, was a slip of the tongue...not that I agree with all Repubs do, certainly not, however in Joes case he likes the parts that I dislike and I am pretty darn sure he voted Obama for the second time
I did catch most of Ted Cruz, now that was worth the while, great guy, made mincemeat of Gregory and UpChuck Schumer I thought
Very good points to keep in mind, Gritty.
Joe Scarborough is such a disgrace. There is something in his background, when he abruptly decided to leave the House, that I believe is being used as leverage by dems and turned him into a muppet.
That would be the Lori Klausutis (dead intern) incident in about 2001.
Yes, isn’t it interesting how swiftly that ‘incident’ became non-news! Scarborough had been a very good spokesman for the Republicans during the Newt/Clinton years.
Scary scenario there shalom but accurate.
Its a discouraging day with a Manchurian being sworn in again. Both times with his number one job to destroy the country as much as possible.Were I a drinking man.....
Good catch!
Now you see why morning joe without his morning ho’ is on MTP with dnc dave so much.He’s not one of us. Never has been.He’s a DNC plant posing as a part time pubbie. Disgusting! Formerly from Pensacola as well.What loser.
Wow this thing with Scarborough is huge.I don’t recall it at all. the link at this site is phenomenal,here’s a snippet.
Lori Klausutis, an aide of Joe Scarborough, was found dead in Scarborough’s own office with a smashed skull (multiple fractures, front and back) at the very same time Levy went missing. Official reports of the death of Lori Klausutis, the 28-year-old aide to Joe Scarborough, have been contradictory and suspicious. Initial reports said there were no signs of trauma; the autopsy reported a “scratch and a bruise” where Lori’s head hit her desk, a fact which was initially concealed by the medical examiner because “The last thing we wanted was 40 questions about a head injury.” Then we learned the examiner, Michael Berkland, had his license revoked in Missouri in 1998, and suspended for six years in Florida in 1999. Now the Fort Walton Beach police are refusing to release reports about Lori’s death, citing an “open investigation.” Do the police believe Lori was murdered? The Northwest Florida Daily News wants to know, and so do we.
The link is above, its really good reading and makes you thing twice about good ol’ boy Joe.He is definitely up to his ears in this one.
I don’t recall it at all.

It was barely a one day story, and perhaps was only reported on Fox.
It looks pretty big to me! I may do some more research on it and I go to Pensacola and ft. Walton in 6 weeks anyway.
Almost forgot the transcripts, in case anyone is interested!

It’s more about what zero has on the CJ..

That D*ck*ead folded faster than a cheap suit.
Inquiring Minds want to know.
