It is precisely your brand of intractibility that precludes any rational discussion of how to keep guns out of the hands of criminals.

The first action that should be taken is to close the gun show loophole and make anyone wishing to purchase a firearm undergo an NCIC background check.

I realized a couple of years ago, it doesn't matter what Obama says, truth, lies, manufactured realities, twisted facts, he says it to appeal to his audience. The only thing he has left, an audience.

Although a different application, much like Capt. Picard's 'Make it so'. Little does Obama realize, he no longer conveys the authority. He's just a shmuhk diddling away the country's future while trying to look cool doing so.

I just love people that don't have a clue... If you purchase a firearm from a dealer at a gun show, you STILL have to undergo an NCIC background check. I have bought a few from them... Have you?

The left - idiocy on parade. EVERYTHING they post is wrong. But ignorance is the hallmark of the leftist brain.

How much? Not any more than is necessary to protect the public.

At some point you need protection from the government...
