Post hoc ergo propter hoc mean after this therefore because of this. I don't think anyone argues that UBC are the cause of prohibited persons getting firearms.
The idea I suggest is that legislating something very difficult to enforce doesn't have much of an upside, and that drafting and enforcement differ greatly.
