However, if that’s the case and as recent legislation indicates, we should also expect them to be applied to voting rights and perhaps other civil rights. I don’t like the idea, but it’s the political reality … unless the U.S. Supreme Court is willing to draw a line.<br /><br />Private firearms transfers are more problematic, since they also involve Fourth, Fifth, and Ninth Amendment rights. The better solution would be to open the instant-check system to the general public and allow for voluntary participation. Since most lawful gun owners would prefer to use the system, police resources could be focused more effectively on the questionable transactions that still fell outside it.M. D.

I just wish your side would fall on the liberal side for the issues of background checks and the gun show loop hole. We have way to many senseless murders and accidents due to guns. I personally know a kid that died from an accidental gun shot. He was a great kid and our laws should protect life before liberty.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4849269801054325042.post-22080296545555317102014-01-12T00:02:31.049-08:002014-01-12T00:02:31.049-08:00Thanks for the link.
