??"background checks"???I'm STILL WAITING for YOUR proposal that would take guns from criminals,I don't think anything will do that. Background checks on all sales would make it harder for criminals.
Actually, no it wouldn't, there is nothing to show that it would....they steal their guns or get people who can pass background checks to buy their guns for them.....again....if you catch a felon with a gun....lock them up for a long time...the only gun control that works......
I know you prefer it is easy for criminals to get guns. Armed criminals sells more guns.
Already made one.
Already in place, "federal form 4473" and instant check BEFORe you buy a gun (NICS).
It is federal felony to sell a gun to someone who is prohibbited by law from owning a gun.
It is also a felony to lie on federal form 4473.
