Nobody does Ron, they are here to stay. We just do not FOOL ourselves that background checks do anything but force Criminals underground to acquire firearms by any other means. They do not simply say shucks, I gives up ! Darn background checks and gun control !! They buy firearms on the black market just as they buy illegal drugs, also illegal.
Is he back on the Passport Jazz again ? Ask him, if Passports are such a big dill, why are there so many undocumented illegal Aliens ? How do Mexicans get here ? They don't have no "stinkin" Passports...... lol
So how come we have so many illegal aliens with no Passports ? So many Mexicans with no Passports ? What do Passports prevent ? Nothing, undocumented illegal Aliens everywhere sans Passports... Sorry, I forgot to add the customary Duh.....
Are you saying we should get rid of passports? You are clearly making the case they don't work....so just get rid of them then?
not on their own. i oppose them being a prerequisite to purchase. in most circumstances, the bgc takes a few minutes and hinders no law abiders from purchase. Ideally, imo, a purchaser would complete the bgc, buy the firearm (if the bgc takes longer than purchase time), and then be reported to LE for having bought a firearm after the fact if found to be a restricted person, then arrested for having committing a crime.
Kind of like allowing a person entry into the country and then notifying INS that the person is here illegally.
non-citizens are not guaranteed the constitutional right to presumption of innocence. those entering the country have to verify their citizenship prior to being afforded constitutional rights.
Non prohibited persons are guaranted the constitutional right to purchase a firearm. You must verify that you are a non prohibited person prior to be afforded this constitutional right.
