I think that would be an awful deal, unless it was coupled with National Shall Issue legal carry and full 50 state reciprocity.
I’m tired of feeling naked when I visit my family in Kali; at home, I can bring my Glock nearly everywhere. In Kali, carrying my Glock is a felony.
Trump correctly surmised that he could appear to be flexible and reasonable, and at the end of the day the Dems would just hate his guts too much/too focused on getting everything to ever strike a deal with him.
This helps him with those wobbly suburban females.
I guess my point is, how do we know the gun store actually did the check?
A lot of these laws are a bit like locking your car. If a thief really wants your car, they will still get it, but it deters. Same thing here. The current system isn’t perfect, but it is a deterrent.
No matter what the Democrats say, their ultimate goal is to disarm law abiding citizens and assume the throne.
If Bill has a criminal record who precludes his having a gun, then he would not have gotten a gun from Bubbuh.
How can they enforce keeping gun sellers honest? By occasionally sending in an undercover officer with an ID which will turn up "denied", and seeing if Bubbuh sells anyway -- at which point Bubbuh is in trouble.
Sorr. Not interested in unilateral compromise.
Which is all the Dems are interested in.
No. No more compromises of any kind. Time for the other side, the would-be tyrants, to do that.
Repeal the NFA in its entirety, and then the ‘68 GCA, as a sign of good faith, and then we can address the issue of background checks. Maybe.
Of course, this proposal assumes that no data will be collected just because it will be “forbidden” in the law. Yeah, sure - and I’m the Queen of England. BATFE is legally prohibited from collecting a database of 4473s, yet they do so without a 2nd thought or any type of challenge. Screw that whole idea, unless you first have a similar background check on people who buy the NYT or New Yorker magazine.
A gang member will just have his girlfriend buy for him. SHE will turn up clean on any check.
Illegal immigrants have people infiltrated into DMVs to get real drivers licenses from fake documentation under fake names. The name on the drivers license has no criminal record associated with it, so will pass a background check, even though the person using the ID is a career criminal.
Part of the compromise could be for FFLs to destroy all the records they have.
Which is no sure thing given our Goebbels media. It does make for interesting rhetoric to expose their true agenda.
Any time you compromise, you lose 50%. Next time you lose another 50%. and it goes on and on.
Every one of those tens of thousands is unConstitutional The Second Amendment admits of NO exceptions, not for automatic weapons or nuclear missiles, not for ex felons or those deemed to be dangerous in the future, not for anything that hinders the owning and carrying of arms of any description. There are restrictions on the 2Amd that are Constitutional and have to do with the unregulated costs of owning weapons.
There are no Constitutional laws or regulations re fire or any other arms. Actions are, however, appropriate subjects for laws and regulations. The 2Amd says “...shall not be infringed,” nothing else and there are no exceptions in that amendment for anything.
Compromise This!!!
That pretty much sums it up. But you never hear the left talk about changing or abolishing the 2Amd. But in reality, that is what they would have to do.
Like and kind to all attractive women are potential prostitutes.
If Bill has a criminal record who precludes his having a gun, then he would not have gotten a gun from Bubbuh.
It’s kinda like those mom and pop stores selling booze to kids.
