Most here know, -- you stand for "background checks".

You stand for and support anarchy,

Simply not true. You cannot cite any such argument I've ever made.

-- by the use of faulty logic and pure BS to gut the Constitution.

Again, you are simply trolling, "flaming" me as attempting " -- to gut the Constitution --", by defending our right to buy guns without 'background checks'.

Such 'checks' are unconstitutional infringements made by Congress under the pitiful guise of regulating commerce. -- And you pitifully defend Congress.

Can you refute John Ross?

"-- You know, -- the right to travel freely and the right to defend oneself through the ownership and use of firearms are both Natural Rights which existed before our Constitution.

Here in the United States you can AT ANY AGE go into any state and buy as many motorcycles, cars or trucks, of any size as you want, and you don't need to do anything if you don't use them on public property.
If you DO want to use them on public property you can get a license, depending on the state, between 14 and 18.
This license is good in all 50 states. NO waiting periods, no background checks, nothing but a basic driving test, written test and vision test.

If we treated firearms like cars, a teenager could go into any state and legally buy handguns, rifles, shotguns, machine guns, cannons, whatever, cash and carry, and shoot them all with complete legality on private property.

And at a certain age he could get a state license good for anywhere in the country to shoot these guns on public property.

However, as driving a motor vehicle on public property is a privilege and firearms ownership is a Natural Right, the former requires a government issued permit while the latter must never require government sanction. --"

Any 'faulty logic' comments spunk?

Re: DLs

"NO waiting periods, no background checks"

There are background checks for DLs. You're just not aware of them. The check isn't complete and refers to State DOT records and any sent to that State.

THere's no point to the Brady waiting period, if one can already slap a gun down. In that case they're clearly a violation of right, w/o justificaiton. If not, and the person ignored, "be prepared", they'll have to suffer the few days, because the law is there.
