Background checks apply to gun shows, Nutwinger. Really.Gee, I've been pissed at my boss and I own a gun. I never shot him.Stop it? Probably not
We are a second amendment nation. We have 300 million guns ready for you to resolve any grievance or conflict you may have. We are also a nation raised in a gun culture. Cowboys shooting it out in the street. Gangsters spraying machine guns.
Pissed at your boss? Heres a gun
Had it with your wife? Heres a gun
Guy cut you off in traffic? Heres a gun
Want to kill a bunch of first graders? Heres an AR-15
We need to admit that we prefer being an armed society than a safe society. People getting killed is a price we willingly pay
I've had it with my wife and I own a gun. I've never shot her.
I've had guys cut me off in traffic and I own a gun. I've never shot one.
I have no desire to kill anyone. And I own an AR15.
It's not the gun, idiot. It's the idiot.
Very true
The challenge is how do we keep the guns away from the idiots?
We can start with keeping them away from criminals....background checks
We can keep them out of the hands of crazies....background checks
We can keep them out of the hands of wife beaters...background checks
But we cant have effective licensing or background checks because the gun nuts insist on.......except for gun shows, except for private sales
We have background checks idiot. They don't work.
Especially when they don't apply to private sales or gun shows
I love it when gun nuts insist on exceptions and loopholes to the laws and then use those exceptions as proof that the laws don't work
And how do you propose to stop private sales between two criminals?
Easy
If I find Rabbi has sold a gun to a criminal who should not have a weapon, I send Rabbi to jail
