You might note that incitement is a regulated form of speech. Reasonable regulation is needed in all aspects of life in a community. Even free speech.
So if government can put any regulation on a Constitutional right, they can put all regulations on Constitutional rights. Therefore, they really aren't Constitutional rights, are they? I guess they should have called it the Bill of Suggestions
Back to the all or nothing again. This all started with the premise that gun rights can not be infringed in any way. Obviously, they can be in reasonable ways. The only question now is "what is reasonable". I think it is reasonable for an individual who is selling a gun to find out if the buyer is allowed by law to have it. A few bucks for a background check that the buyer would probably pay for is the best way to make sure that happens. Don't you want to make it harder for crooks to get guns?
I don't want to make law abiding citizens into criminals because they don't keep up with the complex legal requirements created to trap them by anti gunners......if criminals are caught with a gun...lock them up...it really is that simple....that guy who shot the cop in the face....he had already been arrested twice for gun possesion and attempted murder......if they had just done what I suggest, and kept him locked up on the gun charge...the police officer, and whoever else he had victimized would be safe today.....
How about .....
Any caught illegally possessing a gun 5 years in prison, no exceptions.
IF they use that illegal gun for the commission of a crime (armed robbery, etc), 10 years in prison, no exceptions.
IF the discharge that illegal gun during the commission of a crime, 20 years in prison, no exceptions.
And that is actual gun control....controlling criminals using guns to commit crimes...anything else is just trying to stop law abiding people from owning guns because of an irrational fear of guns......
I always know what that means; i don't need to impugn the right for being so full of fallacy.only if you don't work for the government; want to "harass a Judge" about it? The citizens of each state shall be entitled to all privileges and immunities of citizens in the several states.Easy...we have background checks available now.....good guys can right now ask any buyer to go with them to get background checked.....if they refuse, they know not to sell the gun to the guy.......no need for any new laws......
Right. Voluntary checks. Lots of people willing to sell guns to anybody as long as they can say they didn't know the buyer was a crook. How you gonna prove they were lying? With universal checks, we get rid of that loophole.
Because when you catch the guy who bought the gun...and he wasn't allowed to have it....you arrest him......simple, easy, and no extra money or paperwork required...since he wasn't allowed to buy or be in possession of the gun...right?j
That takes care of it..........universal background checks don't get rid of that loophole, the guy gets a straw purchaser or steals the gun......
It is a felony to be a straw purchaser.
You don't know what that means
Only gun lovers who don't have a clue or a Cause have a problem.So if government can put any regulation on a Constitutional right, they can put all regulations on Constitutional rights.

No one is trying to stop you from OWNING anything.
You just don't like filling out paperwork and waiting a few days.
Gun owners like you are selfish pricks.
I got a friend who owns more than 20 guns and he says it's his civic duty to follow all the laws and only sell with a background check.
I am of the belief that a CCW should be treated like a vehicle driver's license. If you are visiting a state, your CCW issued in your state should be legal and valid, just like your driver's license. If you move to a new state, you should have a set amount of time in which to get a new CCW issued by your new state.
CCW permits, in my opinion, should not be treated like a marriage licenses.
Opinions?
That's idiotic.
Gun regs that work in Wyoming won't work in NYC.
Any reasonable person would understand that.
That's why we have so much gun violence -- piss-poor white trash states like Indiana with gun nutter and no regs flooding the market which spills over into grey and black markets.
You want solve the gun problem, you make it extremely risky and difficult for criminals, mental patients, and wife beaters to get guns and even harder to get ammo.

And again you show no bit of understanding of what is going on......it is already a felony for criminals to have guns....they use them anyway...they don't care until they are caught....so when you catch them, lock them up or a long time...that is the only form of gun control that works......
And Chicago, New York, D.C.....all have strict gun control....and lots of gun violence....if gun control in those cities worked it wouldn't matter what other states or cities have guns......but again, criminals ignore gun laws......so your premise is wrong.....

I agree with your point except the left also want the supremacy of the State
Universal background checks would be a minor inconvenience for a lawful gun seller, but without them, there is no way for the individual seller to tell if the buyer is one of the felons, etc. that are not allowed to have a gun. I believe most responsible gun owners would refuse to sell to crooks, but how do they know if the buyer is a crook? That would make me feel a hell of a lot safer.
By "universal background checks", you really mean that you want the federal government to be the one in charge?
For all intent, there already ID "universal background checks", but the states are in control of the "checking".
I'd like to have the check cross State so if you're convicted in Tennessee it turns up if you by in Texas. However, who is in charge I don't really have a position on.
I view this more as a chance to toss criminals back in jail than a chance to prevent them from getting guns. You can't do the latter, but criminals are stupid. Cross State checks may be the most important for that.
You understand that except for the automatic arrest warrant all of those are currently being done, right? There is no Federal wait period either.Why do you think that isnt done already?Universal background checks would be a minor inconvenience for a lawful gun seller, but without them, there is no way for the individual seller to tell if the buyer is one of the felons, etc. that are not allowed to have a gun.

I find your post a bit confusing since I don't believe I said it's not done, but my issue with the current law is the wait period. I support a background check, but I want:
1) It is instant
2) There is no record kept of the check
3) If a convicted felon tries to buy a gun, an arrest warrant is automatically issued immediately
If they do not do all three, then I oppose them. The only reason to me for background checks are to violate felons and send them to prison. I also think they should require ID just like for alcohol so minors cannot buy guns in gun shops and they can verify they are searching for the right person in the background check

In some cases, the NICS check goes directly to the FBI, other times it goes through your state Police, THEN to the FBI.
It depends whether it takes 15 minutes or 40 minutes.
Any felony ANYWHERE is supopse to be in the FBI files.
Anything in the state or FBI files, including domestic battery, drug addiction, and other things, will disqualify a person from buying a firearm.
It is the damn "24 hour wait", the "3 days wait", the weekly wait", and other such ridiculous state laws that need to be done-away with.
You should be able to walk outta the firearm store with your purchase as soon as the NICS check comes back.
.............. Just saying.

I got a friend who owns more than 20 guns and he says it's his civic duty to follow all the laws and only sell with a background check.
THAT (People waiting days to be able to take possession of the newly bought guns) is one or the most ridiculous laws EVER!!!
NICS can find out IF you can legally own/possess a firearm in 10 to 40 minutes.
Not reason to wait any longer than THAT (10 to 40 minutes) to take your firearm home with you.
