Background Checks
Does Nancy Pelosi live under a rock?
The other day, I heard her say we need background checks. |

What Pahoo said.
We already have NICS check at FFL's as federal minimum. When they talk about "internet sales" or "gun show loophole" They're talking about private sales within your own state. At the federal level it's not illegal to sell to another citizen of your own state privately. They want to end that so that all transfers have to go thru a dealer. You can't have a gun sent to your house.. when they say internet sales they mean classified sites like armslist where you post what you're selling and then meet face to face (in your own state) to sell. gun show loophole is what they call people who sell privately at gun shows... mind you FFL's still have to conduct NICS at gunshows. It wont do any good though since a minority of guns used in crime and especially mass shootings are bought privately.. most of them turn out to be bought legally thru a dealer, or stolen is the 2nd most common method of obtaining.. no amount of "background check" will eliminate theft. |

yeah, it was the first "solution" offered by the DNC after the LV shooting took place. Nevermind that the shooter passed all background checks (as did the Orlando shooter).
The logic is akin to recommending that everyone eat chicken soup as a solution to global warming. "Never let a crisis go to waste."

Speaking as someone who votes lefty, I would very much like to see Pelosi and a few others in lefty leadership retire. Now, I know she was talking about universal background checks, as does anyone who has actually been following some of the demands coming from the left. But to the unlearned, of which there are more in this country than there should be, it would give the impression that there aren't any kind of background checks being conducted at all. This is one of the things I absolutely hate about politics, and it happens on both sides. Things get worded in such a way to distort the truth.

While Clinton tries everything she can to convince everyone that Trump isn't fit to lead it is actually the other way around. Clinton, Pelosi, Feinstein, McCain, and certain others are the ones that are unfit to lead.
People will follow them with no regard to what they follow. Last edited by Prndll; October 10, 2017 at 04:59 AM. Reason: spelling |

Why would she admit that, has she come to her senses? NO. She is setting the stage (again) that Gun Control does not work, so the only solution to keep Americans safe is a total and outright ban, or better yet "repeal the Second Amendment". Admitting gun control does not work is NOT admitting defeat, it is taking this debate to the next level, Repeal the Second Amendment. |

That's a pretty big gamble. First, she has to admit her gun control policies are a failure. Second, she has to admit the Second Amendment protects an individual right bear arms. And that's all for just a remote chance of repealing the 2nd Amendment. The incremental death of the 2nd Amendment is a better and proven option for the anti-gunners...

She already said after passing the AWB in 94 she would have taken all guns if she could, ("Mr & Mrs America, Turn them all in") but there wasn't votes for it so she got what she could (AWB 94-04)
That kinda reach is to radical even for non gun owners. I know plenty of people who do not have a gun, don't want a gun, but would never support a complete ban. |

"She [Feinstein] is setting the stage (again) that Gun Control does not work, so the only solution to keep Americans safe is a total and outright ban, or better yet "repeal the Second Amendment".
*rolls eyes* To repeal the 2nd amendment, 2/3 of both houses of congress have to pass the repeal. Then 3/4 of the states have to ratify it. I doubt that 3/4 of the states will ratify that in any of our lifetimes, more so hers. She's on the judiciary committee and doesn't recognize that? She's another one who's fit to lead is questioned. |
