If it is “unconstitutional” to do background checks on voters or to charge them a “fee” to vote, then it sure as hell is “unconstitutional” to do it to those Americans exercising their Second Amendment rights.

And Reid and the DemoQuacks care about the constitution and civil rights? As Diane Feinstein recently said in regard to her gun ban proposal: Congress don’t care about the Constitution, and it just passes the laws it wants.

My pop put a shotgun on a chair on the front porch, loaded. All day long people passed by and never once did the gun shoot anyone. I think it was defective, or something.

Seems like hell’s experiencing a bit of a cold snap. Even the ACLU gets it right once a decade or so.

Methinks, they would find a way around via some provision of the General Welfare clause - or some such nonsense...

A background check should check the status of the buyer, not record the serial number of the gun he bought.

“Right”? What is this “right” of which you speak, comrade? The only “right” is the state.

Didn’t see any mention of that whole “-—shall not be infringed-—” idea. You wouldn’t expect the whiners to actually stick with the fundamentals. But anything to whittle down enthusiasm for obamuzzie’s big plan.

Nah, it was a geographic problem. In Chicago, it would have gone on a rampage and killed at least six people, seven or eight on a week end. Maybe it's the air coming off Lake Michigan.

That gun must have had wheels. LOL

Agree and I hope this will be used to legally challenge this assault to the second amendment.
