[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As soon as someone can explain the procedure of how a person is put on a terror watchlist, is notified of their being on that list, and can explain how they petition how to be removed from it, we can discuss it. But you can't. Because it's a secret list. You're not told if you're on it. You're not told why you're on it. And there's no means to get off of it. So when we have some openness about the watch list, then we can talk about it. Until then, nonstarter. As for online sales of guns: 100% of guns sold through online auction or sales sites have a federal background check associated with them. Every. Single. One. Because federal law requires the gun be shipped to a FFL, not directly to the buyer. The FFL logs it into their bound book, and transfers it to the buyer after the federal paperwork and NICS check is done, in addition to any state paperwork, if there is any. Again, to reiterate: EVERY GUN SOLD ONLINE THROUGH A GUN AUCTION/SALE OR TRADING WEBSITE GOES THROUGH A DEALER AND HAS A BACKGROUND CHECK ASSOCIATED WITH IT. A GUN CANNOT BE PURCHASED ONLINE AND SENT DIRECTLY TO THE BUYER. PERIOD. FULL-STOP. Now, can we please stop with the repetitive, childish, moronic, infantile "but what about guns sold online?" questions???? You have your answer. Yet again. Enough already. [/quote] Ok. And what about the online classified? Like PP posted - VAGunTrader.com? Or armslist.com as I mentioned earlier? Felons can buy guns via online classified with no background check. [/quote] Felons can also buy them at yard sales. Or flea markets. Or from friends. Or from family. Or from straw buyers. Or from other criminals. Or steal them. Or even build them from scratch if need be. And it's already illegal for a felon to do all those things. So what's your point, exactly? [/quote] That universal background checks will give felons fewer options to buy guns. [/quote] Like prescription requirements give junkies fewer options to get drugs. [/quote] Exactly. It's getting increasingly difficult for junkies to obtain opiods because of tighter controls around prescriptions. https://www.cdc.gov/drugoverdose/pdf/guidelines_at-a-glance-a.pdf [/quote] So..... what you're saying then.... is when addicts can't obtain something legally, they just give up and stop looking. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!! No. When addicts can't find something legally, they simply obtain it illegally. But felons don't do that with guns. Nah... totally different scenario, right? :roll: Why don't you just admit that the REAL reason you want background checks on private sales is because you want the information on who owns what in a giant database, so when the time comes to confiscate them all, you know who has what. Seriously, just admit that. We already know it anyway. But we'd actually have a modicum of respect for you if you had the courage to admit that's the plan. But you never do. You go on thinking we'll never figure it out until it's too late. Yeah, that went out with the Sullivan Law. [/quote]
