'Inconvenience' a silly reason to block background checks
allvoices.com ^ | 1/25/2014 | Michael Rappaport

As I write this, some patriotic American is expressing his love of the Second Amendment at a mall in Columbia, Md.

We know two things will happen. A lot of people will talk about things that should be done, and nothing at all will happen because our political leaders are terrified of that tiny minority known as the National Rifle Association.

This isn't about taking anyone's guns away. It isn't about preventing anyone from buying and owning the most obscene weapons, weapons the founders would never have envisioned. It isn't even about those poor, sad men who believe they need state-of-the-art weaponry if the time ever comes to overthrow the government.

Inconvenience is a silly reason to block voter ID laws.

Children should never be allowed near a word processor.

Inconvenience is a silly reason not to prevent any random resident to use a car to drive to a bank
Every day, dozens of bank robberies occur with the use of a car.
Some even result in fatalities!

How many people drive to a bank each day?
A tiny minority!

No bias there.

I could not get past the hyperbole in the 3rd paragraph.

*** It isn’t about preventing anyone from buying and owning the most obscene weapons, weapons the founders would never have envisioned.****

Would they prefer the killer had used a Claymore broadsword, in use when the Founding Fathers wrote the Constitution?

"The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be Infringed”

No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President

The rule of law is dead.

Indeed. He’s cancelled much of the first amendment too.

Citizens voting is a right AND a privilege. Bringing a legitimate ID to the voting place is the least one should have to do to assure honest voting across the land. How anyone can see it otherwise is outside the realm of common sense.

The well-known Chicago way of conducting an election is having its way with America.

There’s a huge possibility that the Chicago way of elections (vote early vote often, vote Daley) is how the Manchurian candidate got elected to Congress in Illinois in the first place. From that his handlers parlayed the man with a complexion into the national spotlight and used the Chicago way to get him elected president.

Let’s give everyone a background check. that way we’ll know if they are qualified to vote, hold a job around children or the elderly, who we can trust with money and who we can’t, and yeah if they can shoot well with a handgun or rifle. Those who can’t shouldn’t be allowed to own ammunition.

"If you're afraid of the government knowing you own a gun, I don't see anything about that anywhere in the Constitution. If we Americans ever did have the right to live secretly, it has been gone for a long time. A really long time."

To know that there are people in this country who actually think this drives me to despair.

I recently did a web search using these words:

nra blocks funding

This has to do with research related to gun violence in the USA. Is this simply because they do not trust the government to investigate the matter? It seems to me the NRA would have an interest in obtaining accurate information in terms of how often guns are abused or cause innocent deaths. What is your take on this?

If our standing army has it, then the citizens who empowered that army should have it, too.

GUNMAN IN MALL SHOOTING HAD NO CRIMINAL RECORD

“There are a lot of unanswered questions,” McMahon said at a news conference. Aguilar purchased the shotgun legally last month at a store in neighboring Montgomery County.
