I have posted this idea before but with hilary pushing Australian gun confiscation and universal background checks...it is time to suggest it again...
The best way to stop criminals from going to gun stores and gun shows and stopping them from getting guns from private sales......
When they are convicted of their felony....put a no guns allowed tattoo on their shoulder.
What does this do...
One of the two ways criminals get guns is through straw purchasers....the one technique used is the felon goes into the gun store with the straw buyer and points out the gun he wants....
The tattoo on the shoulder stops this cold. The gun store, the gun show, could have a policy of asking all customers to show their shoulders before they are allowed in the store...........
Right now..there is no way to tell if the guy at the counter is a felon without running a background check.
If you have a straw purchaser at the counter with a felon, you check their shoulders and if the one guy has a tattoo...you can ban both of them from your store....straw purchasing will then have to change........
Same with the private sale....if you want to stop felons from getting guns from private sales...this is the best way...any private seller can just check the shoulder of the buyer and tell immediately, without a universal background check, if the buyer can legally buy the gun....
This tattoo on the shouldeer actually does what the anti gun extremists want....it keeps felons from buying guns in person.....
And it does not target normal gun owners.
In fact...you could do away with 95% of background checks.....you walk into a gun store, you ask to buy a gun, they look at your shoulder and if it is clean, you can walk out with the gun right then and there.....no background check is needed....
If for some reason you already have a shoulder covered in tattoos...then you would have to go through the current background check system.....
But for most people...no more background checks needed......
