Buying from a licensed dealer at a gun show requires NICS check and form.

Yes. The idea is to use NICS records (which by law are not permanently kept) to build a secret and illegal national registry of who owns guns .... for confiscation later.

Forcing FFL's to go out of business (when by law they have to send all their FFA Yellow Sheets to the ATF for preservation) would serve somewhat the same purpose, hence the proposals to burden FFL's unduly (and break them).

That was done once by Slick in the 90's, when FFL licenses were increased in cost about fourfold by Slick's Midnight Basketball Act. Large numbers of smalltime, basement-table FFL's turned it in (about 3/4 of all FFL's at the time).


Two things to remember:

The illegal registry-building, in the face of repeated Acts of Congress, went on even during the administration of Bush 43. Remember that.

Two: Business-class (RiNO, e-GOP, "moderate") Republicans are not your friend. The Pew Sociology Survey in the 1990's (updated periodically since) showed that, on the Right, support for RKBA is weakest among the RiNO group. This is because country-club Republicans and businessmen don't like their employees and helper class owning firearms. They get rich by being unpleasant and underhanded sometimes, and they want to be able to do such things with impunity and with the support of the law, and of LEO's everywhere. Pew's information workers identified, for gun-control supporters, this particular group on the Right as being most likely to roll over, with the right approach, on the 2A rights of other conservatives. (Pew is, after all, a liberal think tank.)

NEITHER Jeb nor Hillary are electable

Unless the Democrats nominate Hillary and the Republicans nominate Jeb, in which case one or the other will be elected.

And no, Trump running as a third party candidate will not get elected. In a three party race, the best any third party candidate can hope for is to win a plurality of the electoral college, which means that it then goes to the House, which will pick the candidate of whichever party controls the House at the time.

Evidently Hillary is not aware of the historical evolution of the 2nd Amendment during the formation of our great constitution. The Federalist, Anti-Federalist and the State Legislatures all realized the intertwining of the right to keep and bear arms and individual liberty. Thank God for their brilliance.

Mark Levin gave an excellent summary of this in his opener today. Can access after 6:30 PST here Mark Levin site. Click Audio Rewind and a player will come up with today's show. Just excellent, like a classroom presentation. I highly recommend it.

Oh, and Hillary, We the People are not giving up the 2nd Amendment. Period. End of story. If you do not understand the importance of it, you are not fit to be an American President.

Maybe she should have a heart to heart talk with Sarah Brady about Middletown, Ohio. My boys sure gave her a grand welcome there. I was never prouder to be a Middletonian, lol. She never showed her face for years after that. Please go there Hillary. I bet they do more then throw shoes at you this time. I see the democrats haven’t learned squat after the 80’s.

What is the gun show loophole? I am serious. I’ve been hearing this from the democrats for years now and no one has really defined it.

It's private sales WITH NO PAPER TRAIL. And that's the real issue.

Exactly how I feel! There is a facebook rage to counter this anti gun movement (AGAIN) going on ever since all this happened in Oregon. Hey it’s not the guns America it’s the Criminals!! I cannot believe we are still battling this! Taking guns from law abiding citizens or making more restrictions on gun-owners is not the answer!
Logic and Free Americans is not the dems/leftist agenda, as we all know!

That makes the confiscation much easier 2 years later.

Bingo. The only point of registration is confiscation.

“the anger, frustration and bitterness that will gnaw on her after wasting decades and a small fortune on two failed efforts to win the White House in which she had every advantage only to lose before even leaving the starting gate will be worse than any prison.
In January 2017, Hillary Clinton will be sitting in front of a television set watching someone else take the oath of office. Nothing the penal system has to offer would be a harsher punishment than that moment.”

I have often had similar ideas. Let us hope our vision of her misery will actually happen.

Why is this criminal allowed to run for President? She should have been indicted by now.

Once again, she threatens to be lawless.

The term “close the gun show loophole” is just smoke and mirrors to hide what the gun grabbers are really up to. The real goal is to eliminate all undocumentated private individual to individual sales, gifting, inheritances, etc, by forcing as these types of transfers of ownership through FFL holders thereby eventually a federal registery of all private guns would be developed thus making a door to door confiscation possible.

Ask Hillary these questions.

1. What EXACTLY is the Gun Show Loophole?

2. What EXACTLY is an Assault Weapon?

3. Do you understand the term “shall not be infringed” or are you running for Dictator?

4. Why aren’t you in Jail yet?

Sorry Bear. I've been attacked so many times today, I don't know whether I'm coming or going.

Owning guns are a constitutionally protected civil right. Buying a gun from a private free person without government permission is not a loophole.
