So if I want to sell my neighbor a gun I should have to do what? Call the FBI? The gun is legal. I'm just pointing out the obvious roadblock to telling 2 law abiding citizens they have to get the government involved in the transaction. That isn't going to fly in most areas.

.

constant media bombardment creates a fear culture.

I have no problem with you but when it comes to guns you're the biggest fucking imbecile on this forum by far.

Completely brainwashed and delusional.

the thing is do you know if your friend has been convicted of a violent crime? you might of just aided in him committing another one. sure its fine 9 times of out of 10 but that one time makes a lot of noise and its totally avoidable.

Yup, that's what you get with all these idiots walking around with guns.

Obviously the solution is more guns.

The last couple of times I purchased a gun the dealer called my info in. After a week the dealer received NO RESPONSE from the FBI/ATF whoever and then sold me the guns based on the fact my drivers license was current.

If timely approval isn't given to an authorized firearm dealer what will happen if the system is flooded with calls from every private citizen looking to sell his private property?

I understand the problem, I just don't see a viable, read actual working system ever being in place.

Well, 1 out of 3 isn't bad ?.

* I agree background checks work.

* Straw sales? How do you stop someone who can legally purchase a firearm from selling to someone else? That's a tough one.

* "redneck psycho morons" aren't the problem. Middle to upper middle class emotionally fucked up young adults and career criminals are the problem.

.

that's pretty sad. there should be some kind of online database that doesn't give dealers info but sends back a red flag if there is reason to deny them ownership. you would think in this day and age something like that shouldn't be so hard to set up.

What do you do when another inanimate object is involved, such as a motorcycle or a car ?

Exactly. My local store calls my info into the FBI but receives no information back within the 3 days required for a response. Why? The dealer is then allowed to sell the gun based on his impression of the customer. That's the system currently in place.

Once again, a solution always sounds good until the government actually tries to implement it.

.

You buy it and take it home.

Weird how our society is these days.

People are actually begging the govt. for more taxes, and now to create a "data base" on them too. lol

I remember when citizens were outraged that the govt. was keeping files on them. REAL liberal thinkers were in the streets protesting that kind of shit. Now they are begging for it???

This is like taking candy from a baby for the govt.
I remember when The Rolling Stones had the song "FingerPrint Files" about the FBI spying on them and John Lennon and Martin Luther King and other people whose opinions they didn't like.

And now LIBERALS (fake ones) are determined to get every person in a data base so just in case they ever wanted to buy a gun they would be able to be checked against it?

George Orwell was right. He was just off by 30 years.

don't be so stupid, it already exists...they're called criminal records. are you against sexual offender databases too?

Well the gun nuts always crack me. "I need a firearm to protect myself". Protect yourself from what?

My buddy Tony lives a few blocks from. He's armed because he feels the need to protect himself. I don't have that fear at all.

Ok Crime.

Some people consider a car jacking Not Violent.
Some people consider knocking down grandma and stealing her purse non violent.

Hey look http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-d-tc-ZVa5N...0/image001.png

Because illegal guns used by criminals started out as "legal" guns, and since Americans are never going to change their gun crazy attitudes, the only real solution is some kind of future fingerprint or DNA technology that allows only the registered user to fire the weapon.

Buy you have at least a couple firearms... Trolls crack me up!

How do you go back and equip all the millions of weapons out there? Roll up on the gangs, hey guys we need to change your weapons you have, then give them back to you!

That about sums it up.

Because our government doesn't track you from the day your born? I got a card from Social Security shortly after I born because I was assigned an SSN number, which in the run the IRS uses. Have a driver's licence number from DMV, which in turn is used by the police and insurance. Pretty much any company I do business with - cable company, cell phone, etc - has both my SSN and DL.

Yet you don't want the government to know you have a weapon who's only real purpose is to kill another person? Then again, in another thread you bitched because someone selling cocaine got arrested.

I own firearms but I'm not a gun nut.

Oh, I thought you had to go to the DMV to get a temp or permanent license plate...

That must be only for Canadians buying a 57 corvette in Chicago suburbs :warning

Bad timing http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013...oston-marathon

No, that's if you want to park it or drive it on a public road. There are no regulations about who can purchase a car or motorcycle and no regulations about keeping it in your garage.

I see your point though and am not trying to be a wise ass.

If I want to carry a gun I have to either carry in plain sight or have a permit to carry concealed. (not true in all states) But again for private use in my home there are no regulations in my state provided I'm not a criminal.

.

You don't. This would be a change that effects the long term situation. Eventually old guns are phased out from age. It's enevitable.

This is the same reason an assault weapon or clip size ban would help. There are guns in circulation that nothing can be done about, but the aim of the ban is to keep new ones from overpopulating our culture with guns, guns, guns.

Everyone thinks anything we do is supposed to take effect right away and keep some school children from being shot up next week. The idea is to change our culture so 40 years from now, the problem is getting better, not exponentially multiplied.

People will still own guns, which is fine -- but there won't be 10 guns for every man woman and child on the planet. If that that doesn't sound like a good idea to somebody then I'd have to wonder what mental defect they have.

hummmm... this article makes it seem quite more complicated that `I buy it and leave with it as I wish ....':

mainly:
seems that you can have a car with no registration ( license plates ) but you still need to go thru the process ...

In Canada, I suspend my plates on my collector cars during winter , along with some insurrace coverage, but they still are registered .

That's the damn truth.

If you are law abiding you can get a gun no problem even with a background check.

Actually, it was pretty easy... You stand alone, liberal puppet. How does it feel knowing that your life belongs to someone you've never met?
