Why on earth is the USA government not doing background checks on potential gun buyers? All talk and no action from the worst president ever.

Even if it finally gets passed to do checks, why would you still have assault weapons sold to the general public? Simply unbelievable.

We have background checks.

We have had them for decades.

Why are l*****ts so hung up on the myth that we don't have them?

Why do people have an irrational fear of certain kinds of rifles especially when considering they are used in less than 500 deaths a year - fewer than knives. Thats pretty unbelievable too

The ability of the anti gun leaders to whip people into a frenzy with a lot of false narrative would have made Goebbels proud.

So then why is Trump (on TV as I type) saying he will look into getting meaningful background checks?

Trying to appease the dumb masses I guess.

If he is doing that, why are you claiming there’s a hang up?

We have had background checks since 1993.

Read a book.

Don't ask me, ask the friends and family members of the dead, that were assassinated by way of an AK-47.

I know huh! These lefties think that the minute Trump took office that he voided all the old gun laws including background checks. In California it takes 10 days to get a gun and an extensive background check is done. Here in Arizona, they make a phone call that only takes a few minutes to check you out. If you have a conceal carry license, then the background check is done for that and then when you buy a gun they don't do it again and again. It was done when you got the CCL.

Besides, there were hundreds of shootings if not more when Obama was in office too.

What needs to be addressed is our mental health issues. Too many people behave with symptoms of having some kind of mental health issue and it goes unreported. But care must be taken not to take all reports seriously without investigation. Imagine someone like a vindictive ex-spouse reporting that you are acting crazy and one the word of just one person that h**es you getting all your guns seized or not being able to buy your next gun. That wouldn't be fair.

Nuff said. (for now)

Less than 500 people per year die via rifle. How many were AK 47s? You don’t have an understanding of the subject. More than that die from knives. Do you have the same concern for them? Those beaten to death? Hit with blunt objects? Each of those murder categories is more than by a rifle.

The reason you don’t know that and are fearful of rifles is because of the propaganda machine behind the anti gun faction. As you can see it works very well.

That's because you're assuming lww has a clue.
Yes, there are background checks however, they don't include gun shows, they don't include mental health history, they don't include most of what you would consider a reasonable background check.
The background checks are a joke. The last time I went into a gun store to buy a handgun, the entire t***saction including the "background check" took 12 minutes.

And, as usual, that’s a lie.

You cannot buy a gun at a gun show ... other than an antique or from a private small collection private citizen ... without a background check.

The private citizen t***saction could just as easily be done online or in the parking lot.

Now if it was done in 12 minutes they had obsolete technology. A credit check can be done in less than 12 minutes

What handgun did you buy? What caliber? How many rounds will it hold?

We do have background checks. Have you gone out and actually bought a firearm? Try to buy one without a background check.

Assault weapons are not generally sold to the public. And the cost? At least $10,000. Not a tool for kkkriminals. Evil leftie Dems try other means.

He and Frank are afraid it would chase them around the store firing hundreds of rounds per second.

Have you been to a gun show? Have you purchased a firearm there? Tell us about your experience.

Don't you think those rifle k**ls would go down if you eliminated assault weapons?

You people like to place a pile of s**t next to another pile and say, "Hey, this pile doesn't stink as badly!"

None of those used are assault weapons. Please use t***h and fact. Avoid indoctrination and propaganda.
