Register illegals not legals
Confiscation has already started in NYS. I cannot think of a better reason to prohibit background checks and wipe federal databases of ANY information about citizens that could be possibly misused by government itself.
Biden said they can’t even handle the background checks they do now. And they do millions a year.
anytime you order a gun online it’s an ffl and background check. anyone buying from a store has a background check done. Thieves do not buy guns from gun stores. they get their guns illegally on the street. Or they steal them from law abiding gun owners, like Adam Lanza did. Lanza did try to buy guns at a gun store the week before and he was turned down, the background check didn’t go through.
Aren’t Universal BC’s done by Hollyweird?
The gun-control advocates know that a certain percentage of legal gun-owners will obey the law. The problem is that many others will decide to become “criminals,” knowing that the law cannot be enforced.This will breed contempt for law, just as prohibition did and the war on drugs has.
A complete lacking of understanding of criminals, their motives and disincentives must be a prerequisite for becoming a democrat/liberal/progressive.
If we wish hard enough all the bad people will just become good and blow bubbles...
Background checks for guns should be as simple and unintrusive as registering to vote. Buying a gun should be as easy as voting. Both are constitutional rights. I think they should be linked.
“Of course businesses owners have a right to deny entry to people with guns -”
Assuming that’s true, would it be an infringement if there was a law making it illegal for people with guns to enter a business if the business owner denies entry to people with guns?
“-just as gun owners have a right to patronize other businesses.”
The author’s worldview is to narrow. There may be no other businesses to patronize.
I think it's even worse than that. Yes, the useful idiots on the left believe as you say, but their masters in the royal court know better.
They have no intention of disarming their partners in the overthrow of our country. They only intend to disarm those who would resist their treason.
Just another basic human right. Right?
The reason: if that gun owner fails the background check, it will not prevent them from having a gun; they've still got all of whatever guns they had before.
Your insight, I regret, is likely true.
I hate to think such things of American government officials.
“Of course businesses owners have a right to deny entry to homosexuals. -”
Just another basic human right. Right?

How about last year the ‘Philly Cheese Steak’ (or a similar type establishment) had a sign that simply stated:
“Order in ENGLISH only”
And he got dragged over the coals...While the sign may have been a ‘little over the top (wink wink)’, there should be absolutely nothing wrong with it.
Do you expect him to hire someone to speak Farsi, Tagalog or whatever Nationality may venture into his store?
NOW, if he is in a predominately Filipino neighborhood, it would behoove him to speak or at least hire someone that spoke Tagalog on his payroll.
Fine if he doesn’t want their business (kind of stupid if that is where he is located) BUT it should be none of the Governments business to ORDER him to HAVE to communicate with anyone that may walk into his store.
When I first went to Japan and the rest of the Far East in the mid 50’s, ALL the people that worked in relationship to US learned to speak English because they knew it would be easier to get our money that way.
Of course the more Sake or Torys you drank the less important the language barrier became BUT that is another ‘story’ in itself.
BTW in VA if you go into an establishment armed and they have a posted sign that they ‘don’t want guns in store’ etc, the only charge you can get is trespassing.
I am sure if you make a point of it, the more liberal cities/towns/counties, would find other stuff to charge you with.
But since ‘they’ can’t ‘frisk you without probable cause’ if you are carrying concealed, who is to know?
I pay no attention to the store owners ‘wishes’ but if it comes to the point where I have to brandish or draw, the owner and other customers will be falling over themselves ‘thanking me’ because the situation will have gotten desperate and just about ‘out of hand’.
Questions that should be on the background check:
Are you muslim?
Does obama give you a tingle down your leg?
Answering “yes” gets a rejection.
A florist in WA state is being sued (prosecuted?) for refusing to sell flowers for a “gay” wedding. Business owners are not allowed to choose to allow smoking in their establishments. If business owners are not allowed to make these choices what right do they have to refuse to allow law abiding gun owners?
