Don't need to, I live in north western South Dakota. I don't even know if I have a key to my home doors haven't locked them in years...Criminals will be criminals that's why they are called criminals no Amount of new laws will change that.dumbass
So....why do you lock your doors?
That's great, S. Dakota residents don't need guns if what you say is true. Sadly, S. Dakota isn't NY or CA or any other state in our nation. Thus, let's toss out Heller and allow we the people in each state and each city / county to decide on who can and who cannot own, possess or have in their custody and control a gun, how it must be stored and the type of firearm legally possessed.
And like the old South you would have been one of the guys determining how blacks should be allowed to vote...how much they paid in Poll Taxes and what kind of Literacy test they had to take...then people like you would determine where on a bus a black could sit...
We know how you nuts feel about basic human Rights and that is why they had to spell them out for you in the Bill of Rights.......twit.
What does any of your babble have to do with just checking to see if someone is a criminal or mentally ill.
This is the part I don't get. No one wants either group with access to fire arms. A majority of NRA members support background checks. The public overwhelming supports them.
And yet the gun fanatics oppose even this. Just checking to see if someone is legally allowed to buy a gun is an 'undue burden' to them. That's how ludicriously skewed they've become.
Merely *checking* if the person trying to buy a gun is violent felon.....is too much to ask of them.
See....that is untrue....normal gun owners and NRA members who do not research the issue support background checks...that would be checking to see if someone has a felony or mental health condition that makes them violent and too dangerous to have a gun......
What you mean by background checks is what the anti gun leadership means...they want background checks not on "Sales' of guns...but on all "transfers" of guns...that means you can't sell to a friend or family member without the added cost of taking them to a gun store or police station...if they will even do one for you at whatever cost...it means they want only large corporate companies teaching gun safety which will deny firearm training to isolated people who don't live close to a range....
And it will mean that the poor will be prevented from owning and carrying guns because of the extra cost of background checks and in cities in Chicago..that do not allow gun stores...they won't have access to anyplace to buy or get a background check.....it will cost them more to travel to get it done.....
And in order to monitor all "transfers" you will need to register all guns....and this is what normal gun owners do not understand.....this is what the anti gun leadership wants universal background checks for.....since background checks do not stop criminals from getting guns and they know it.......
So no....background checks are not a simple issue...and like mental health background checks, what an anti gunner means and what a 2nd Amendment supporter thinks are two completely different things....
