But - but- but - can't we do background checks on them all to prevent the M-16's from falling into the wrong hands?

No. That only applies to the homosexual issue. As in Countries have to agree to DC’s version of morality before the state dept will provide assistance/funding as they have done several times now.
Come to think of it, giving guns to terrorists IS the DC version of morality.
And the GOP refuses to defund/stop them.

Who stores tens of thousands of automatic weapons in a warehouse located in a tinderbox and doesn’t post guard #1? Imagine leaving a gun shop unlocked in Detroit and expecting your merchandise to be there when you got back.
