As long as they don't go on forever. |
Usually it involves a head, big or little, it's usually the one or the other, or sometimes both. |
We all know why Jim Crow type laws were allowed back then. So, point to me which part of that law is unconstitutional? Wouldn't someone have brought up an appeal by now? Wouldn't the home of the NRA fought that law if it was unconstitutional? Or is the NRA now so broke because they can't get Russian money anymore that they don't have the money to fight it? |
They wouldn't, they would take the same amount of time as they did before. Once the info is entered, mine take anywhere from 30 seconds to an hour or so. It would just eliminate private sales. There will still be plenty of straw purchasers from MD/NY/NJ, and that won't change until DMV does a more thorough job of issuing Virginia IDs. It is to easy to set up a false residence here. |
Its full of military aged males 18-45 and a large portion of gun owning minorities. |

Do you have any data to back this up? I would say most come from straw purchasers who work along side these thugs in other states. Often a relative or spouse. |
Anyone? |
Any bullet that can kill a police officer should be outlawed, period. Frankly, and bullet that can kill a human should be banned, but one thing at a time. I'll take what we can get for now. |
300,000 people murdered by a guns every year are all the stats anyone needs. |
I'm NOT ok with that part. I want background checks to take much, much longer, not be the same or faster than now. I want them to take as long as possible, frankly. Anything that conceivably can delay a purchase as long as possible might save lives. If we can't have lengthy waiting periods and cooling off periods, then lengthy background checks can achieve the same ends. If it were up to me and I was setting the budget for such things, background checks would take months. I might not be able to keep you from owning a gun, but if I can delay it as long as possible I certainly would. |
That's not what the Brady bills are proposing. |
What kinds of guns do you think are acceptable for a regular person (ie not a police officer or someone in the army) to own ? Because I'm betting you're actually more of a gun nutter than you think you are. Do you owning a handgun should be allowed? What about sniper rifles or rifles capable of extreme accuracy at long distances? How about guns that shoot devastatingly powerful ammunition like shotguns? Where do you stand on stuff like this? Do you think people should be allowed to own stuff like above? |
Source please. |
If I already own 10 or 20 firearms, I shouldn't be made to wait as long as possible just for the heck of it. Maybe a five day waiting period, but if I pass the background check I, I pass. |
