Bill Melinda Gates Donate 1 Million To Gun Control Campaign
OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates and his wife, Melinda, have donated $1 million to a Washington state campaign seeking to expand background checks on gun sales, bringing the total amount the campaign has brought in up to nearly $6 million.
The donation to the Initiative 594 campaign was given Friday, but it was not made public until Monday, when it posted on the state's Public Disclosure Commission website.

Because we all know criminals can never ever get guns once another law is passed. JUST ONE MORE LAW and it will all work.
Also, we all know the gun control idiots will stop at expanded background checks.
Just because you can't stop every gun from getting into the hands of a criminal does not mean you should not try to stop any.
You are not stopping criminals from getting guns, you are just making it harder for law abiding people to get them, for no benefit other than saying "we did something." Its just another law that can be broken and ignored by people that break and ignore all the other pre-existing laws.
Why do you want criminals to be able to walk into a gun shop and pick out what they need?
You don't want things to be harder for you but insist that it be easier for a criminal
Why do you want to disarm law abiding citizens? (see anyone can do that crap)
For a felon to walk into a gun shop and buy a gun they already have to break other laws to do that. How would this new law change that?
How does a background check disarm you? Are you a felon?
