So you are against background checks? You would have no problem with someone out of jail being to buy a gun the first day out to settle a score?

So you can't buy all the guns you want even in gun happy Nevada? That is surprising. Kind of hard to argue against your irrational emotion....so have you done anything to fight for this freedom other than post about it on the internet?

Well if you have no way to check that the guy just got out of prison, it should be easy to stroll into any gun shop and walk out when any gun you want. That seems to be what the irrationally emotional pro-gun group seems to want.

so instead, he will just go into an alley and buy one out of the back of a van. if a criminal wants a gun, and criminal will get a gun.

And that is why I want to see us go after those who buy guns legally with the intention to sell them illegally. Unless you are trying to say the criminal will buy a gun illegally so why not just let him buy it legally no questions asked, that sounds a bit reckless.

To fight crime? are you aware the after prohibition ended so did most of the crime?

so you are telling me democratic politicians exploited a crisis to limit the freedoms of law abiding citizens? I am shocked!


so because crooks commit crimes we should all suffer?

Does that answer the whiny rightie's question?
No, it does not, but of course, you still have not educated yourself on the subject. You continue to spew leftist talking points like a good leftist.
