A note from the GRPC
abbafandr:
Would this be a single event or would it be required for every purchase?
Sadly, the electronic records will end up in Utah.
AAllen:
abbafandr has a good point, you know how we keep hearing there is no "National" gun registration or data base. Actually the FBI keeps track of all background checks, yes they can not keep the details but they do keep that a check was run on person X at this time by dealer Z. They then find out they need to track down firearm Y that was sold by Dealer Z at a specific time, all they need to do is go back to the records for that time and they know who to contact. There is no single data base of the records and they are not breaking the law, just keeping a record of phone calls and the other data they a required to keep; but people are learning how to use these separate "lists" to develop records they do not have otherwise.
Mntnman:
No, just no. If states pass them, we squash them there.
Mntnman:
We need to roll back 80 years of infringements as it stands now.
RLMoeller:
This discussion (and a lot of debate on day 2) came about while discussion Washington state initiatives 591 and 594. both on the topic of background checks.
There are certainly some strong opinions on the topic. I also noticed a variety of misunderstandings on topics surrounding the debate. And this was among folks that have a lot of knowledge that many us have a great respect for.
I cringed when I heard someone say "It would never pass it Arizona". I immediately thought of what HSUS had done in Arizona. Bad bills pass while good people say "it will never happen here". Never take anything for granted. Things that would "never happen" do sometimes happen.
