The country is awash in guns and background checks are a joke since they are easily evaded. Close the loopholes and apply require registration of ALL guns.
Psychos?
Background checks should include psych checks for the purchaser and their immediate family. Sorry, but if you have a mentally unstable person in your home, guns should not be around.
Also, I can understand having a few gun around for self-protection, but there are people out there with bloody arsenals. Why do people need dozens of firearms, including military-grade assault rifles with high capacity clips?
I am not for banning guns, but limiting the number and type, and requiring registration and EFFECTIVE background checks that are hard to evade, is just logical and prudent.
