I support President Barack Obama’s proposal to enact common-sense gun regulations in response to the terrorist threat.
Obviously, we should block suspected terrorists from gun purchases. If the name is on a no-fly list, it should also be on a no-buy list. This would require expanding our screening system to include gun shows and online purchases.
If 40 percent of guns are acquired without a background check, as they are now, we might as well not have any background checks at all. |

"we might as well not have any background checks at all."
Finally, gun grabbers and I can find some common ground. |

This brain dead liberal can't stick to voicing his opinion. He has to make up statistics to support his unsupportable opinion.
The percentage of gun sales conducted without a background check is nowhere near the 40 percent he claims. |

Karen is a proletarian dufus, and as such, should never be allowed to vote. |

TO REMEMBER |
After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
