Don't need more laws. Just enforce the existing. Less than 1% of those that lie on the 4473, a felony, are prosecuted.
So we need to spend more money on enforcement then. Maybe put gun fees to help fund it?

Ok. Then change the system.
These problems have solutions.... If you don't like them then you need to come up with an alternative gun control. People notice those who blame but don't offer solutions and those people get overruled if they don't start producing. Another few mass attacks with an AR, you may quickly find you have a very small voice. I suggest to start coming up with meaningful gun laws before time runs out.
The best part about it is we have had NICS for 17 years and only a handful of states share their criminal and mental health records on who should be denied a firearm. If you were convicted or been committed by a judge for being a danger to your self or others then later move to another state you can pass a background check. The Brady people who got this law passed don't even try to fix this. It's the gun industry who is trying to fix it. About FixNICS | FixNICS.org The left always want to demonize the NRA but they are the ones who are working to fix this. The NRA and the gun industry doesn't want sandy hooks by crazy's.
