KMA!

Every politician that votes to restrict our Natural Rights as protected by the 2nd Amendment WILL BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE and labeled a traitor of the Constitutional Republic. You swore to uphold the Constitution…if you can so readily lie to that oath you took why should we ever believe a single word out of your mouths?

Molon Labe!

I’m guessing that from now on I will only lend indefinitely firearms and borrow them indefinitely the same way.

No more sales….just a gun nut lending to another gun nut….

If I had any…that boat trip last month….

Won’t hold up in court. The Fed’s entire power to mandate B/G Checks comes from the Commerce Clause. Face to Face deals that don’t cross state lines are outside their powers.

I didn’t find a definition of “background check” in the article. Anybody know exactly what that means?

I saw this coming long ago, so I sold all my firearms at a garage sale along time ago.

(For the record)

Background checks performed by the government should be the same for whatever department wants a background check, and they should not result in a breach of anyone’s privacy.

I want to know the same things about an employee I am going to hire, as I want to know as a person selling someone a new gun.

I don’t want to hire someone who would not pass a universal background check, or would be here with FAULTY paperwork, making them not legal (ILLEGAL) to hire. I don’t want to “have to” hire someone with a mental/emotional problem. I don’t want to pay money to someone that later I am blamed for not knowing they could not legally cut my grass or repair my roof. Or teach my children in school.

Exceptions make bad law.

Camel’s nose under the tent…and none of the “solutions” offered by our esteemed Congresscritters address the real problems of purported mass violence via guns.

Stolen weapons? Gang warfare? The breakdown of family structure/increase of fatherless homes caused by the welfare state? Mental-health issues, esp. the incidence of schizophrenia and abuse in the prescribing of psychotropic drugs to young people?
