Stupid Democrats.
Criminals don't obey laws. All these laws only restrict the rights of law abiding citizens that aren't the problem. |

I reiterate (and I seem to be the only one pointing this out) that there is no constitutionally delegated power for the federal gov't to do this.
The power to mandate background checks at retail issues from the commerce clause. The feds can mandate commercial licensing and impose conditions upon those licenses. Private transfers are not commerce, hence no power to mandate private background checks resides there. One can tediously pore over the rest of the Constitution looking for such authorization, but you will not find it.
Because it ISN'T in there.
This law would be facially unconstitutional. |

| Once again Repressive Democrats show that they couldn't care less about the Background Checks only in increasing the expense, red tape, inconvience and the number of booby traps they can set for the unwary to discourage gun ownership. Open the NICS phone lines to private individuals if they really believe that background checks do anything except promote the Black Market for untraceable guns. |

TO REMEMBER |
| ...If a man lies under oath or procures the lie of another under oath, if he perjures himself or suborns perjury, he is guilty under the statute law. Under the higher law, under the great law of morality and righteousness, he is precisely as guilty if, instead of lying in a court, he lies in a newspaper or on the stump; and in all probability, the evil effects of his conduct are infinitely more widespread and more pernicious. � Teddy Roosevelt - May 12, 1900 |
