Guns should not be banned, but they should be regulated just like cars are regulated. Local background checks have been proven to be effective at reducing violence, and they don't interfer with people's right to own guns.
And ALREADY REQUIRED you dumb ass. It is a FEDERAL Law. Even at Gun Shows people have to have the background check done to buy handguns. In this State it is accomplished by requiring everyone that wants to purchase a handgun to get a permit from the local Sheriff. Takes 5 days and satisfies the 5 day waiting period mandated by LAW. Permit is only good for 90 days. Did I mention you have to PAY for the permit? No permit no handgun sale.
