The bill extends the amount of time that a Delaware gun buyer might have to wait for a background check to be done from three days to 30 days.
“To me, this is a no-brainer bill,” said House Majority Leader Valerie Longhurst. She added that lawmakers have an obligation to protect public safety, and that only one gun in the wrong hands can have drastic consequences.
“It’s a public safety issue,” said Longhurst.
Representatives of the Delaware Coalition Against Gun Violence also spoke in favor the measure, arguing that it is not unreasonable to make gun buyers wait for a background check to be completed. |

| It is unreasonable to have registration and background checks it the first place, waiting 30 days is insane! |

TO REMEMBER |
| To have no proud monarch driving over me with his gilt coaches; nor his host of excise-men and tax-gatherers insulting and robbing me; but to be my own master, my own prince and sovereign, gloriously preserving my national dignity, and pursuing my true happiness; planting my vineyards, and eating their luscious fruits; and sowing my fields, and reaping the golden grain: and seeing millions of brothers all around me, equally free and happy as myself. This, sir, is what I long for. -- General Francis Marion, American War of Independence, Georgetown, SC [Source: 'Marion, The Life of Gen. Francis Marion' by M. L. Weems, Ch.18] |
