Background checks?

[westwall]

Relevant reading. Emphasis mine.

''The current background check system violates numerous parts of the Bill of Rights. The Ron Paul Institute is correct in its assessment that background checks violate the First and Fifth Amendments because they “compel people to speak [and] provide information about themselves,” and “because you have to provide evidence against yourself in order to [acquire] a gun.”

The Brady System is also unconstitutional on Tenth Amendment grounds because the mandate to provide this information is not one of the federal government’s constitutional functions.

Last but certainly not least, background checks turn the presumption of innocence on its head. Instead of being free to acquire a firearm without government duress, law-abiding citizens are forced to submit records proving their innocence to a faceless bureaucracy. On what planet is this requirement not a violation of the very civil liberties enshrined in our legal tradition?''

Nonsense.

The courts have consistently held that background checks are perfectly Constitutional.

Cite the case law please.

Cite the doctrine of judicial review in Article III while you're at it. Heh heh.

Feel free to file suit in Federal court arguing that background checks are ‘un-Constitutional.’

We’ll wait.

Seems some folk in California, and very likely other states, don't care about background checks.

They've decided to make their own guns.

Feds charge 8 in California with distributing homemade guns

Any ideas on how to prevent this?

Why would you want to?

I'm waiting for you, the pseudo intellectual, to back up your claim.
