The party gets jailed for no more than six months. It's not useful.

Wow, that's really something. Turbineguy Feb 2013 #1
This idiot has no shame. He really doesn't southernyankeebelle Feb 2013 #2
Blithering idot or just monumentally disingenuous? BlueStreak Feb 2013 #22
Excellent point. You would have thought the idiot would have gotten that. Proves they can southernyankeebelle Feb 2013 #23
Wrong. AtheistCrusader Feb 2013 #27
That's a really narrow technical argument. Total waste of resources to chase that. BlueStreak Feb 2013 #36
A waste of resources to interdict a felon seeking a firearm? AtheistCrusader Feb 2013 #38
What are you going to do with him when you catch him? BlueStreak Feb 2013 #44
As I said repeatedly up thread... AtheistCrusader Feb 2013 #47

Graham's SO ignorant Plucketeer Feb 2013 #13

Graham is a piece of shit, and is not a good advocate for his position. AtheistCrusader Feb 2013 #3
Please clarify for me drmeow Feb 2013 #6
When you purchase a firearm from a dealer (FFL) you sign a form 4473 from the BATFE AtheistCrusader Feb 2013 #7
Ah, you also asked 'how would you know'. AtheistCrusader Feb 2013 #10
Thank you for the clarification eom drmeow Feb 2013 #37

Pure BS DWinNJ Feb 2013 #4
just to clarify DWinNJ Feb 2013 #5
Also pure BS. AtheistCrusader Feb 2013 #9
I agree! DLnyc Feb 2013 #11
Yeah, because, you know, that's totally the same thing, right? AtheistCrusader Feb 2013 #12
Smoke weed, No gun! SCVDem Feb 2013 #17
Does failing the background check prevent them from purchasing that gun they're applying to purchase MNBrewer Feb 2013 #18
Yeah, at that place and at that time. AtheistCrusader Feb 2013 #19
We're going to prosecute and convict and house these 88 thousand people MNBrewer Feb 2013 #20
So, what do you think federal agents do when they catch people trying to buy AtheistCrusader Feb 2013 #24
But, if the gun show loophole is closed it wouldn't be so easy to do that. mucifer Feb 2013 #41
I agree with both your points. AtheistCrusader Feb 2013 #42
Where on the form does it say that if you fill out the form truthfully but are ineligible MNBrewer Feb 2013 #35
It doesn't specify. AtheistCrusader Feb 2013 #39
So is filling out the form truthfully, then failing the background check a felony in itself or not? MNBrewer Feb 2013 #43
I can cite no instance where that has happened. I looked. AtheistCrusader Feb 2013 #46
So what does that do to Sen. Lindsey's point? MNBrewer Feb 2013 #48
Nothing. AtheistCrusader Feb 2013 #49
Is such a follow up required by law MNBrewer Feb 2013 #50
This is the relevant section. AtheistCrusader Feb 2013 #52
Maybe I'm misunderstanding what Sen. Lindsey's objection to those 88thousand forms was MNBrewer Mar 2013 #54
No one knows because no one has followed up on those forms. AtheistCrusader Mar 2013 #55
That's like Sen. Ted Cruz's question about "Friends of Hamas" MNBrewer Mar 2013 #56
That raises a question. AtheistCrusader Mar 2013 #57
WHAT FELONY???? MNBrewer Mar 2013 #60
The law doesn't specify 'knowingly'. AtheistCrusader Mar 2013 #61
Yes it does. MNBrewer Mar 2013 #62
Fair enough. AtheistCrusader Mar 2013 #63
I saw that, yes MNBrewer Mar 2013 #64
Graham probably wants to see people thrown into a stockade over it, but AtheistCrusader Mar 2013 #65
Frankly i'm annoyed with Graham because he seemed to think it was the police officer's call MNBrewer Mar 2013 #66
I bet he knows. AtheistCrusader Mar 2013 #67
This Police Chief was on Al Sharpton's show this evening PatSeg Feb 2013 #8
Yes! He was excellent! Hope someone can post his comments. FailureToCommunicate Feb 2013 #14
NRA talking points: background checks... Why does the NRA push this line... midnight Feb 2013 #15
It's deflection. AtheistCrusader Feb 2013 #16
I wish people would summarize embedded video like Huffington Post does. I don't have time to Bernardo de La Paz Feb 2013 #21
I understand how you feel PatSeg Feb 2013 #25
This is one of those videos where the transcription isn't enough to describe what happened pacalo Feb 2013 #28
It really was something to see PatSeg Feb 2013 #33
If that is true, the poster can put that point in the summary. Sell the video! . nt Bernardo de La Paz Feb 2013 #30
The link in the OP summarized it. pacalo Feb 2013 #26
Thanks! Bernardo de La Paz Feb 2013 #29
You're most welcome. pacalo Feb 2013 #31
There is a link up in the OP to the full article that goes with the video. n/t Tx4obama Feb 2013 #32
Some people are way, way to ignorant to be embarassed. Island Deac Feb 2013 #34
I thoroughly enjoyed that, Graham should be ashamed of himself. n/t Jefferson23 Feb 2013 #45
Most people are embarrassed by incidences of stupidity. Kalidurga Feb 2013 #51
Graham feels he's made his point and, by asking the same question over and over, proved it. PDJane Mar 2013 #59
