Clinton's Latest Op-Ed Exploits Victims in Push for Gun Control
There are some common-sense steps we can take that are fully consistent with the law and Constitution to finally begin to tackle this scourge.
Wow. Common Sense. Well that doesn't get my spider senses tingling.
First, we need to repeal the law that gives the gun industry sweeping liability protections, so companies that make and sell guns can be held accountable when their products kill people.
The law doesn't prevent them from being sued. It prevents them from being sued when there was a lawful transaction, and someone else committed a crime.
Second, we should implement comprehensive background checks.
...
Surveys have shown that even 85% of gun owners favor these
...
And it’s hard to believe that we still allow people on the no-fly list to purchase firearms
So, Universal Background Checks are needed, and what's the big deal since 85 percent of us support them.
And, let's start making secret lists and deny liberties based on some bureaucrat.
Third, we need to close the so-called “Charleston loophole.” Right now, a person with an arrest record can walk into a gun store to buy a gun, and if their background check isn’t completed within three business days, they can walk out with a firearm
You want to speed up the NICS, then hire more people instead of talking about denying liberty by underfunding departments.
Ok. I'm done. Someone else can shoot some more holes in it.
