There is no constitutionally delegated power for this law. The authority to mandate background checks at retail issues from the commerce clause. Firearms dealers are thus federally licensed, and can be regulated. The mandate is on the licensee, not on the purchaser. Private transfers are not commerce, the sellers are not subject to being federally licensed, and there is no section of the Constitution that delegates the power to regulate them.
Period. |

TO REMEMBER |
| ...If a man lies under oath or procures the lie of another under oath, if he perjures himself or suborns perjury, he is guilty under the statute law. Under the higher law, under the great law of morality and righteousness, he is precisely as guilty if, instead of lying in a court, he lies in a newspaper or on the stump; and in all probability, the evil effects of his conduct are infinitely more widespread and more pernicious. — Teddy Roosevelt - May 12, 1900 |
