Well no mr troll - even then that’s not always applicable.

Mentally ill WITH NO CRIME is not a reason to restrict one’s rights in America. How about that?

We all have violent tendencies as humans which are innate in the human condition.

If you want to restrict someone’s rights - be they gun or first amendment or property rights you go through due process where the accused has a right to defend themselves in court.

Not have them taken away like being silenced on twitter because somebody just reported you like a good little apparatchik.

This is going to not work very well. This system is going to get extremely overloaded if every Tom, Dick, and Jane can request a BG check for a ‘gun sale’.

EVERY SINGLE DAD is going to get a check on his daughter’s new boyfriend.

Most people are going to get a check on their new date.

A lot of people will probably request a check on most of their neighbors.

Every single politician is gonna be getting checked nonstop by people all over the country.

And more!

It will just add to needless paper work and won’t make any difference with the mass shooters in our midst.

BACKGROUND check WRT minors; no expunging of a juvenile record for the purpose of background check for a firearm purchase ... would that be fair?

F your “intense pressure” from Democrats! No one sent you there to work for them!

The system NEVER works for us! Never!

Lois Lerner? = free
Coup Plotters? = free
Jessie Smollett? = free
Kim Fox? = free
Blasey Ford? = free
Covington Kids Accusers? = free
Epstein’s Pals? = free
Sanctuary City Administrators? = free
Slave Labor Chicken Moguls? = free

The LEFT lies constantly! 2 freakin years of Russia Russia LIES and inside of a week these pieces of garbage are looking to spit all over the constitution to appease them?

THE SYSTEM NEVER WORKS FOR US! No more laws that only WE have to follow!
