Some Tennessee lawmakers are calling for universal background checks while others are standing firm in their opposition to more gun control. “When it comes to the Constitution, there are no compromises,” said Rep. Glen Casada, R-Franklin, chairman of the House Republican Caucus. Last October, Middle Tennessee State University conducted a poll of 603 random voters statewide. Eighty-three percent said they were in favor of background checks on all gun sales, including gun show and private transactions. |

And?
Constitutional rights aren't subject to popular opinion. That's why we have them.
If it is too much to ask to show an ID to prove your identity before voting, why is it okay to require an ID, a 4473, a background check, and sometimes a waiting period before exercising another right? |
