this is not a Federal issue.

As long as the purchase is between two residents of the state then the federal government has no power to regulate that purchase.

Closing the private-party "loophole" would only lead to massive straw purchases instead. LAGC Apr 2012 #44

It's not even "strict constructionism" per say... ellisonz Apr 2012 #84

more logical fallacies and straw men gejohnston Apr 2012 #10

In other words, no, you can't back your previous post with any actual evidence. DanTex Apr 2012 #12

more false claims about gun blogs gejohnston Apr 2012 #13

About that wikileaks cable. DanTex Apr 2012 #16

What does that 90% mean... (long rant) sarisataka Apr 2012 #37

But what you and gejohnston are both missing... DanTex Apr 2012 #69

There are simple solutions discntnt_irny_srcsm Apr 2012 #70

Good reply sarisataka Apr 2012 #78

Disagree about a few things. DanTex Apr 2012 #81

We can agree to disagree sarisataka Apr 2012 #83

On what do you base your conclusion ... Straw Man Apr 2012 #38

My basis is sarisataka Apr 2012 #40

I was asking DanTex. Straw Man Apr 2012 #41

Wow. krispos42 Apr 2012 #65

It's illegal for ANY PERSON to transfer a firearm to someone who is prohibited from buying it slackmaster Apr 2012 #5

Not quite DanTex Apr 2012 #7

the hits keep coming gejohnston Apr 2012 #11

In other words, I was right. DanTex Apr 2012 #14

So what new laws would you propose to remedy this? oneshooter Apr 2012 #15

Umm... I would require background checks on private sales. DanTex Apr 2012 #17

Yep. But most would ignore my questions. oneshooter Apr 2012 #19

Umm... I'd accomplish it with a federal law, requiring background checks... DanTex Apr 2012 #21

So you would rather bitch and gripe instead of doing something. oneshooter Apr 2012 #25

Well, we're both posting on an internet forum right now, so... DanTex Apr 2012 #27

Such a federal law... discntnt_irny_srcsm Apr 2012 #28

Like I said above... DanTex Apr 2012 #29

Have nice life... discntnt_irny_srcsm Apr 2012 #48

Just some supporting data discntnt_irny_srcsm Apr 2012 #49

You should take your own advice. Clames Apr 2012 #72

Keep sleeping. discntnt_irny_srcsm Apr 2012 #79

That is not possible under current law. ProgressiveProfessor Apr 2012 #22

Right, that's why I want the law to be changed... DanTex Apr 2012 #26

Is it practical to expect that amount of change in the foreseeable future? ProgressiveProfessor Apr 2012 #30

I'm in favor of what's right, not what is currently popular. DanTex Apr 2012 #33

IMHO... discntnt_irny_srcsm Apr 2012 #35

We have that requirement here in California CokeMachine Apr 2012 #24

If you want to wear a swastika with your gun, it's legal. But Hoyt Apr 2012 #56

my opinion as well sarisataka Apr 2012 #57

I don't like businesses that rip people off, wall Street types, among others. Point is that it's Hoyt Apr 2012 #58

Something we agree on sarisataka Apr 2012 #60

You have managed to turn the argument 180 degrees sarisataka Apr 2012 #53

How much did they have to pay legislators to believe that crud? Hoyt Apr 2012 #59

If we are going to play "not greats" - howsabout 6 year old shoots friend with Hoyt Apr 2012 #62

Shall we ask... sarisataka Apr 2012 #63

First off, a bunch of uses of guns aren't necessary. Other than a few cases, Hoyt Apr 2012 #64

Ask this mom who slept safely with gun under pillow until 4 year old shot son shot himself yesterday Hoyt Apr 2012 #73
