“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. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
