Background checks are the cover story for keeping a database of gun owners. Although these days, there are so many different required “filings” to buy a gun, the point is rather moot.
No kidding.
this is not a question of statistics, its a question if is there evidence that each mass shooting could’ve been prevented if each guns involved in shooting were registered?
I live in CA where all sales are thru a dealer (FFL) with background checks and 10 day waiting periods. I cannot count the number of background checks I have had over the years, but trust me, they must work. I haven’t shot anybody. Without all the background checks, there is just no telling what I may have done.
They can’t be universal until Barack Obama’s background is checked.
It’s not about stopping shootings.
It’s about using fear and intimidation to set up the coming tyranny.
And you voted for it America. :)
Looking back forty eight years, the claim, by the anti gun crowd, was that we could stop shootings if we registered all guns and banned the import of 5 shot bolt action army surplus rifles and foreign made Saturday Night Specials, ban the “mail order” of all firearms, prevent all guns from being bought across state lines, ban military surplus hardware from the US.
So the 1968 Gun Control Law (a version of the 1938 Nazi Weapons law)was passed.
One of the first people to be raided was an arms dealer in Tulsa, Oklahoma who was busted for selling new imported MILITARY EQUIPMENT, namely, musket gun flints for flintlocks.
No... But they do make it easy to keep a universal registration of guns and their owners.
Stopping “mass shootings” is not the Nazi DemocRATS’ objective. Disarming the American people is their real goal. The comment was made on FNC this morning by one of the female hosts that Obama’s Fuehrer Directive was a “first step.” She didn’t say a “first step” towards what. The old frog in the kettle of water on the stove thing.
Yeah because if you want to shoot people up, you will not inform the government of your intention to do so.
