Seems like a large majority of the mass shootings have been non-Muslim.
According to the Left nobody should have them so you should welcome the start of banning them. Why don't you? Is it because it's one of your favorite minority groups that you on the left like to protect? BTW, blacks shoot more people than any one else in this country and many of the are Muslim or like to pretend they are because it's the cool thing to do in prison.
I do not advocate the need for an actual "private sale" to have to go through a background check, but what I am in favor of is stopping these dealers, who call themselves "private sellers" from getting around them.
That still leaves it open ended, there have been dealers that lost their licenses and converted their stock to private sales. Many private sellers claim to "know" the person on the other end when in reality they know very little. If it's not universal there will always be a way around the laws.

Yet these entire thread is about protecting the rights of suspected terrorists (Muslims?)
It's not necessarily arbitrary, the FBI places these people on a list based on some intelligence, seems prudent to lean towards tighter restrictions and they can challenge their designation.
I don't see it being that effective in any event unless they close the other loopholes in the gun laws, they can always get a gun online or at a gun show or just head to Georgia.
I don't understand the reference to "Georgia".
If you buy from gun shop in Georgia, you have to pass the FBI background check just like everywhere else.
Several liberal states that have laws on the book now, where if somebody has accused you of saying "when I see you im going to slap the hell out of you" .
You can be charge with a "making terrorist threat" and lose your right to purchase a firearms solely on a arrest and not the conviction of the charge.
Does that make somebody a "potential terrorist" ? NO. but the Bill the NRA help blocked would of made it so.
Private sales do not go through a background check, whether it's online or through a gun show. Gun shows are not entirely FFl's almost half of all sales are private.
On line sales still require a background check unless you actually meet face to face, then it is not really an on line sale is it? The vast majority of sales at gun shows go through an ffl. Private sellers at gun shows are not very prevalent. Not to mention states that have made this practice illegal did not show any drop in crime outside of the national average.
