I suggest the Republicans honor the wishes of the people and not the NRA and Russia.

The latest NBC News-Wall Street Journal survey finds that 89 percent of Americans favor expanded background checks for gun purchasers; 76 percent support "red flag" laws to identify dangerous persons and deny them guns, and 75 percent favor a voluntary buyback program in which the government would purchase firearms from current owners. Sixty-two percent of Americans favor a ban on the sale of semi-automatic weapons.

My source was a national poll conducted last month.

...by NBC..and you can bet they only asked people in the northeast......nuff said.

[Retirednsmilin308]

Being able to buy a gun without a background check is not a "basic human right".

...it is in Texas.


From the Sean Connery movie, Wrong is Right.

Phone rings...
Is it Texas?
I don't know. it sounds like war. Shooting, yelling.
It's Texas...

[Retirednsmilin308]

Why not? We regulate private sales of other things.

...like drugs, stolen car parts, illegal alien labor, and hookers...

I have partaken in all of those except the drugs.
never even once saw a government regulator during the process.

90% of Americans want background checks!
You are woefully uninformed!

That same 90% number has been thrown around for decades.
If 90% of Americans want something, it will happen.
it DOES NOT HAPPEN because that number is a lie.
90% of Americans DO NOT WANT draconian laws like that one, as written.

A big lie repeated over and over, but we are too smart for them and see it as such.

Or....you can step out in the hallway, wait for the dealer to bring you out the gun, hand him the money, and walk off.

what a reach.

[FindersKeepers]

Then you have broken the law.

Bull$#@!.

[stjames1_53]

Bull$#@!.

odd that he won't say what law(s) you've broken. Only that by some mystical means you are a criminal..............it's freaking magic!!!!!

[stjames1_53]

what a reach.

"Our main agenda is to have all guns banned. We must use whatever means possible. It doesn't matter if you have to distort the facts or even lie. Our task of creating a socialist America can only succeed when those who would resist us have been totally disarmed."

Those are all illegal things. I do not see the relevance.
