Title: Coburn Proposal
Post by: 1Buckshot on April 19, 2013, 09:26:40 AM
Hear is a new background check by Republican Sen. Tom Coburn of Oklahoma. It puts the burden on the seller of a gun if they want to use it. It may not say you have to, but maybe you should.
 What do you think. I will have to see the whole bill before deciding myself.

I gave up after a few minutes of reading.

Does he ever get around to explaining how you are going to prove you someone you are not on the list?

20,000 local, state and federal regulations have failed to do anything but infringe the rights of the law abiding.
But criminals will all obey #20,001 honest, this is the magic bullet.
Any one in favor of one more useless law is a f*cking idiot.

FTA:

Quote
COBURN: Well, the same way if you went through a licensed gun dealer - they wouldn't be there either. So what was proposed yesterday actually doesn't work. And the reason it doesn't work is if you've ever been to a gun show, the vast majority of guns sold at gun shows aren't sold by licensed dealers. They're sold by other people who are trading guns. So you have to address it.
[Emphasis is mine.]

The "vast majority"... really Coburn... that's even worse than the "40%" bullcrap we've been hearing from Obama.  I'll give his bill a fair reading when it's available.  If it's anything like the gibberish in that article, however, I'll be upset for having wasted the time.

"The people who aren't going to follow the law aren't going to follow it anyway."

Hey dumbf**k, why even write the law!!!
You want the law abiding people to jump through hoops knowing the criminals won't. Sounds perfectly logical. ::) ::)

Do politicians have their common sense surgically removed or are they born that way?
