I see so you just prefer other illegal means of felons getting guns through more laws that are easy to circumvent as long as it is more of an inconvenience for responsible gun owners...

restrictions need to exist to prevent these weapons from getting into the hands of criminals. No firearms to people with a history of domestic violence, nor to ex-cons nor those with mental disorders that tend to lead to violence against others.



We already have these rules.... The criminals ignore them.



Let me summarize your position:

We have rules that forbid certain undesirables from getting guns.

We have made these rules trivially easy to circumvent at the urging of the NRA and people like DaVinci and mnealtx.

Therefore criminals circumvent the rules.

Therefore there's no sense in having rules.



So, what changes do you suggest that would stop criminals from circumventing laws?

Nope.



So what's your point then...

A felon can illegally buy a shotgun/rifle with or without a requirement for an NICS check...

They specialize in breaking the law...they will break whatever law you make...that's what they do. They're professionals.

Is that a reason to make it trivially easy for them to break the law? I wonder why banks lock their vaults at night, if bank robbers are going to rob banks anyway.

Locking a bank vault doesn't infringe on anybody's rights to access their money nor does it make such access unnecessarily inconvenient...

Are you claiming that a NICS check is required of ALL gun purchases?



A NICS check is required for all sales by a dealer, regardless of the location.

Or is it just that you still don't know the definition of a strawman? Maybe you're thinking of "straw purchase", a common way for disqualified people to buy a gun while evading a background check.



Wrong on that one, too. Maybe you should quit while you're (way) behind.

So, you can show those criminals that have been arrested for illegally attempting to buy a gun from the local gunstore?

By all means, lets see the numbers - you'd think 0bama and Holder would be trumpeting them from the rooftops.

You mean the lie about enforcing the EXISTING laws, since they're mute on the private sales you keep trying to claim are bypassing the law?

Requiring a background check on ALL purchases doesn't infringe on the rights of law abiding, sane citizens.

I realize that you are happy to sacrifice people like Cho's victims and Rep. Giffords just so that you aren't inconvenienced.

Red herring. Existing laws are NOT mute about prohibiting certain classes of people from buying guns. However, in 33 states anyone can go to a gun show, including convicted felons, and buy a gun from an unlicensed dealer with no check whatsoever.

Apparently what you're getting at, is that you want private gun sales banned, and want a law that would force gun sales between private individuals to go through gun dealers with a background check.

Of course, the criminals would just ignore that law too, and instead it would increase the cost and hassle to all the honest gun purchasers.

The only question is why you don't just come right out and say this, and instead perfer to play all these snippity games with everyone. Why is it that you can't just say what you mean, and mean what you say? Why not just get right down to the point of contention, instead of spending all this time being evasive? And if you are unwilling to speak frankly and candidly, why should we give your comments any credibility or consideration?

Things have been much more peaceful in here in the absence of another certain person who had a nasty style. What animosity remains is mostly caused by this kind of petty debate style of yours. "Honesty"? What we need is more direct honesty from you, instead of all these petty games. How ironic it is that you call for honesty from others...

buy a gun from an unlicensed dealer



There's no such thing as an "unlicensed dealer". Dealers are licensed. If you don't have a license, you're not a dealer. Anything done without a license becomes a private sale. So you have either licensed dealers or private sales. That's it. The whole mantra of "unlicensed dealers" is an invention of the gun-o-phobe lobby.

Of course I am worried about the object.



And yet when people say you have an irrational fear of guns you claim that it is not true.

Fact is that I am more worried about the ATTACKER than the weapon. Because a gun by itself does absolutely nothing.***

Right, another captain obvious....

Except when the attacker drops his paperclip he was trying to stab you with and picks up an ak47, the threat level just went up a little bit.

Unless off course you are Chuck Norris, or DaVinci because you won't be worried at all, cause the attacker is the only thing that matters. The tool used is completely irrelevant....
