Any background check is just as stupid, pointless, and idiotic as anything Obama can think up on his own. After all, the guy who ambushed firemen in Christmas morning in NY state wouldn’t have passed a background check. The only thing that would have stopped him is making sure he never walked free again after beating his own grandmother to death with a hammer.
If someone wants to use a gun to do harm, no background check in the world is going to stop them. In less than 2 hours I could go to the hood, offer a couple hundred for a throw away weapon and have it with no questions asked.
Any man too dangerous to own a gun is a man too dangerous to walk the streets.
“Any background check is just stupid, pointless and idiotic”
That is the crux of the matter. The rest of your post is spot on as well. Criminals won’t be affected by this.
I really think there should be legislation to outlaw murder./s
