the difference is, we actually try to make cars safer, there are drunk driving laws, you have to have spent 500 hours behind the wheel of a car(while having a permit) to even get a licence, and then that licence has to be renewed every year.
In Alabama a license is good for 4 years and a renewal is simply writing a check, smiling for the picture and signing your name.
Why do people state things that are false and so easy to check?
As a Democrat, I think we should work on universal background checks, improving the mental health system, and closing the gun show loophole. I don't think we need an assault weapons ban.
I read one proposal I support, INSTEAD of background checks, have national registry of convicted felons and people declared "insane" like we do with pedophiles.
The background check is nothing more then "guilty until proven innocent", when our judicial system cites just the opposite.
I have come to accept that private sales at gun shows should be eliminated entirely.
The dealers pay for the use of the facility and should NOT have to compete with private sellers.
I don' think anyone would take a car they have for sale and park it on the lot of car dealer with a for sale sign on it.
I simply misspoke, Why would you even think i would lie on purpose seeing as i dont know a single state where you have to renew a license every year ? seriously, you read to far into this crap.
And a renewal is not as simply as you just claimed, they do check your driving record and look at your points.
i also find it funny you mentioned nothing else in my comment, skip what you cant argue against and go for a simple mistake.
Sure there is. Those who shouldn't get firearms can easier at a gun show because there's no background check. Fixing that issue would keep AR's out of the hands of felons and allow law abiding citizens to have them if they wish.
I was with you at first, however you have lost me with, " would keep AR's out of the hands of felons".
I have NEVER seen an AR's for sale at a gun show.
Even IF an AR was there it would be against federal law already to sell one to a felon.
I have come to accept that private sales at gun shows should be eliminated entirely.
You can do that but it's not going to make one bit of difference. At a gun show, in a parking lot, to a friend at work, through word of mouth......what difference does it make where someone decides to sell their gun?

Private sellers often times buy a table and pay the same rate as a dealer to sell their guns.
How many massacres away are we from attacking guns NOT being politically stupid? How hard is it to understand that people are getting tired of seeing bodies carried out of schools,malls,theaters,etc.?
This the emotional rant that says people don't really care about the deaths. If they did they would be just as riled about bats and hammers and knives, which have killed more then rifles.
Oh boy! Comparing cars and junk food to terrorism.I`ll step back from this one.
IMO, YOUR post is worse.
You SHOULD stay away!
Comparing gun violence, "seeing bodies carried out of schools,malls,theaters,etc.?" to terrorism is MUCH worse.
