“In most states you can go to a gun show or buy a gun over the internet, without a background check and it just makes it easy for criminals and people who are dangerously ill to get firearms when they shouldn't. Hey, I’m a gun owner. I own a lot of guns, I’m a big supporter of the second amendment, the same time, I don't see why we can't make it harder for criminals to get guns, we should be able to do that,” Kelly said.
Kelly says universal background checks have been adopted in eight states, and their organization “Americans for Responsible Solutions” is working with dozens of others. |

Looking for a solution to a problem that does not exist.
Criminals don't buy their guns at gun shows. They steal them or buy them on the black market.
These so called universal background checks aren't going to stop one criminal gun purchase. They will only inconvenience law abiding citizens. |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
