Don’t we already have background checks?

"Don’t we already have background checks?"

A universal background check law would make private transfers of firearms illegal. The only exception *might* be transfers between immediate family members.

Either way, the government would have a database and means for forcibly confiscating all firearms. Republicans, working for their more equal constituents, assume that the reaction from voters will be to simply try to vote Republicans back into office. No-go, though. No way. They've forgotten too soon, why Obama was elected for two terms (backstabbing from too many elitist Republicans).

As soon as Democrats take executive office, politicians in both parties will pass more gun control and reverse any law that would stand in their way of keeping and using those database records to confiscate all firearms. The confiscation laws will be passed, and the raids will commence.

Florida has them and Alabama has them. Florida also has a three day waiting period.
