key word being "usually",,so passing bad checks as a college student means he cant protect his family when hes 45,,,it violates the 2nd A,,,So you don't care if you sell a gun to a guy who uses it to murder someone or is felon or if you buy a possibly stolen gun that some criminal is selling you?I asked a licenced FFL I hadn't purchaced from before what kind of warranty he offered ... He said "A Taillight Warranty"...as in, when your taillights disappear from view, so does the warranty.I'm curious how many people buy or sell guns from or to a person they don't know.
I have never bought or sold a gun in a private sale. I don't want to buy a gun from someone only to find out it's a piece of junk and I don't want to buy any guns that may have been used in a crime so I only buy from licensed dealers.
I don't want to sell a gun to a person I don't know who may not be responsible or may commit crimes with a gun.
I buy from private individuals, FFLs and online gun stores.
Never had an issue.
Selling is a different story...
I will only sell to unknown individual with a Missouri CCW. Otherwise I'll just sell or trade with folks I know or my local FFL.
I oppose banning private sales.
A ban of private sales is a de facto registration scheme. The first step to confiscation.
Do you oppose background checks for private sales?
Yes, for several reasons.
One is that they then let the government know what you have.
It also costs money.
The government won't let just anyone do a background checks, so you have to go through and pay an FFL.
Background check are pointless since any criminal will just get their weapons illegally.
Federal background check laws are specifically illegal according to the constitution.
The idea of turning the whole country into a supervised institution is insane.
What a normal society does instead is put only dangerous people into supervised institutions.
I think the $25 bucks an FFL charges is worth it for my own peace of mind
I have no problem with felons and the adjudicated mentally ill not being allowed to have firearms.
I most certainly do have a problem with federal laws prohibiting felons and mentally ill from owning firearms.
It is NOT legal for the federal government to make ANY gun law, but felons can not be legally discriminated against.
Mentally ill can be, but obviously if they are mentally ill, they need to be institutionalized, since you can't let them get flammable,, toxins, explosives, etc. So federal gun laws make no sense and are not legal.
Good for you.
As far as I'm concerned any one who commits a felony has proven he isn't responsible enough to be trusted with a gun.
if they are to dangerous to be trusted with a gun they shouldnt be let out of prison or put on lifetime parole,,
cause if they wanted a gun no law will stop them,,
You have to hang a lot of bad paper to be convicted of a felony so yeah fuck that college student because he knew what he was doing.
Not true.
Governments get to impose fines and fees, so are eager to get felony convictions whenever possible.
One can just be counting on the next paycheck, and you get fired.
I've never bounced a check but I have had people pay me and bounce a check usually they cover it and there are no charges ever filed.
To get a felony charge you usually have to write a bad check for 300 dollars and you only get that felony charge if you do not cover the check.
If you don't cover a check you are stealing. If you're a fucking thief then you should be treated like one.
covering the check after your caught doesnt change the fact you wrote it,, and thats the crime,,
