A White House and Department of Justice proposal containing gun control ideas is now available for public consumption.
CNN White House correspondent Elaina Plott tweeted a copy of the document:
The document clearly shows the White House and DOJ adopting the structure of the Manchin-Toomey gun control bill as a guide: Consistent with the Manchin-Toomey-draft legislation, a background check requirement would be extended to all commercial sales, including sales at gun shows.
The document shows the Manchin-Toomey background checksi.e., universal background checkswould include issuance of a bill of sale and the preservation of a chain of title. Sellers would have the option of preserving record of the sale or allowing a Federal Firearm License holder to record the sale.

“So if you are going to sell your gun to someone you dont know you will have to check them out.” Sounds very stylish, but I don’t think that’s what the Founding Fathers had in mind.
Dear Mr. President,
Stay away from any legislation concerning firearms, or you will lose 2020.
Do not chip away at the Constitution.
Remember, Its the guy behind the trigger, not the gun.
Regards,
LOL
No, Trump knows absolutely nothing about bills that are being advanced from the White House by his own legislative director.
Come on, friend. Can't you see clean through that ruse?
Thanks, Sport. I’m hanging in there, though things aren’t all that bright from day to day. I fight on anyway.
Thank you for sending that letter to the President. I’ve done the same. We need everyone to stop what they’re doing and let him know how we feel.
Do any of these F’n idiots even know what the F’n law is? You cannot buy a gun (legally) without some kind of a background check. Yes, even at gun shows (at least in Delaware; but I’m sure other states do the same).
Don’t bother contacting your “representative” or “senator”. They don’t care about you. Except at election time, when they want your vote and your money.
GOA is saying that Bill Barr is pushing this. Not sure if that’s accurate or not.
Really going to chap my arse if it is.
It was a trial balloon, but it shows how far the Trump White House is willing to go, to cut deals with the devil.
Doesn’t fill me with hope for when (or if) Trump is re-elected in 2020.
Then it’s Katie Bar the Door.
HELLO? The administrative state we have now is definitely not what the Founding Fathers had in mind. The FDA is unconstitutional. The Department of (fill-it-in) is unconstitutional. Social security is unconstitutional.
Are you quivering under your bed because of it? This legislation puts advertised commercial sales on the same level as commercial sales. When you’re half way down the slide, it is useless to talk about the slippery slope.

I think it is just a dose of FUD.

Mr. President, do not sign this.
The cops went to all the FFLs in the area and "requested" their 4473s. Every FFL complied. The cops tallied a list of everybody in the area who had purchased such a gun and "requested" them for testing. Every gun owner complied. They did not find the murder weapon, but it was an eye opener. All this was detailed in the Sacramento Bee.
Anybody who has ever purchased a firearm through a FFL is on the radar, as is the gun they purchased. It's already a de facto registration scheme.
And this goofy bull**** is supposed to do what? Why not just ban homicides and suicides. Problem solved.
Oops.
I meant to say "She actually works for the Atlantic."
Reading through that bio link I am just thinking, wow, they really are a completely different kind of people that live in a completely different "reality" of their own construct.
.
IANAL, so am having trouble with “commercial sale.” What defines that? Does listing a gun on your favorite gun forum make it commercial?
When you've already wet yourself it is useless to talk about cold and sticky your panties are.
NO GO!
I’m sure that would be spun as an invitation to white nationalists to commit mass shootings.
If Trump signs on to this, he will likely lose Texas.
