They want to make private sales require a NICS check. They want to make private sales require a NICS check. They want to make private sales require a NICS check. They want to make private sales require a NICS check.
THIS IS NOT A DRILL, THEY ARE ACTIVELY TRYING TO TAKE YOU RIGHTS.
"The House passed legislation mandating federal criminal background checks on all gun sales, including private transactions, in the most high-profile congressional vote on gun control in decades.
The House passed the bill on a 240-190 vote. It faces stiff opposition in the GOP-controlled Senate."
They said they wouldn't come for your guns, but they are. Do not let this pass. Call your senators. Urge them not to vote for it. Tweet at Trump, urge him not to pass this.
my local place has 5 dollar transfers and I live in new york... does this include grandfathered sales or do I now have to track everyone down.
Jackson Kelly
You're an idiot
Justin King
>does this include grandfathered sales or do I now have to track everyone down. Don't give them ideas user. Also how are they planning on enforcing this in any meaningful capacity? Are they planning on subpoenaing everyone that an officer suspects of purchasing a firearm without a nics check?
Aiden Thomas
>my local place has 5 dollar transfers Good for you. That's $5 more than you should have to pay to privately sell your own possessions.
Nicholas Watson
Lmao under what federal power do they expect this to pass muster with the courts? Sure as hell ain't interstate commerce. Are they doing this just to say "we tried, it's those damn conservatives and their damn constitution!" Because all they're doing is creating a precedent that will hamstring future gun control on the federal level.
>Also how are they planning on enforcing this in any meaningful capacity? Are they planning on subpoenaing everyone that an officer suspects of purchasing a firearm without a nics check? ATF honeypots.
Joshua Butler
Look anons I don't get to vote on the issue; chill the fuck out or go become a member of the senate or congress.
>This'll get knocked down in court and kneecap future gun shittery Wooooooow
Isaac Stewart
How the fuck did they slide this is so quietly? This is complete bullshit
>t. FFL holder
Oliver Jenkins
Jesus Christ they never stop..
It'll be fascinating to see how this plays out if it gets very far, as they will *literally* be requiring a fee for the exercise of a constitutionally protected right.
It's entirely unconstitutional, but that hasn't stopped states with strong "right to arms" constitutions from being cucked by it... whole different ball-o-cucks on a federal level though, significantly more scrutiny
Calling it now, this gets ruled unconstitutional and states with current universal background checks get uncucked
If you want gun violence to go down so we don't look like retards this is a step in the right direction.
Asher Jackson
You're an idiot for thinking that the law would be backward enforceable - NICS has been around barely 20 years.
Mason Sanders
If they really wanted to reduce guns getting in the hands of criminals, all they would have to do is all the general population to have access to NICS. Something like just go to a police station and ask them to process the forms for you (and pay them the fee for processing it).
Elijah Allen
Also no more guns found at the scenes of crimes that aren't traceable back to anybody.
This has always been a dumb loophole. Yeah it makes buying a used gun slightly less convenient for you but shit there are definitely benefits.
Luis Peterson
fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck, theyre going to give away rights because they think theyre compromising in our interest
Austin Flores
Yeah why don't they throw in banning gun sales for people on watch/no-fly lists while they're at it? Go ahead guise, I promise it won't backfire! (Not that the public will pick up on the fact that the inevitable outcome was clear as day all along)
Hudson Wilson
Good. I'm not saying it's anywhere near a fair trade, but its something.
Isaiah Foster
If this passes and they continue to infringe upon 2a rights until nearly is illegal, will you simply disregard the nfa entirely and do what you want?
Carter Hernandez

youre going to be on a list and a target for future discrimination. they will cone back for your guns when they know who has them

Blake Wright
>democrap sabre-rattling passes dem-controlled House >Donald has promised to veto it >Senate will probably kill it anyway Oh look, more fearmongering over absolutely nothing.
Nolan Barnes
Yes, was added as an ammendment
Nah, only sales from beyond the effective date will require it
James Watson
but then we wont know who has the guns we want to take. theyd never do this
Jeremiah Brown
Let's see if the Senate will take this up for a vote, I doubt McConnell will but who knows.
Daniel Phillips
Still, the fact that this has gained any traction at all is a problem
Landon Wright
Because it has no chance of passing. It's just the dems riling up their base with bills they know damn well won't pass as usual.
>unenforceable without national registry We've been over this in my state before. You can't enforce this law without a registry of all firearms. Even with a registry, anyone who wants to sell guns illegally, will. You can't require every gun in the US currently to be registered, because it would be impossible to do so.
Mason Lopez
My collection of "braces, oilfilters and bottle openers" implies yes
Logan Green
1. The Dems only care about mass shootings, and pretty much all mass shooters did or would have passed a background check. They don't care about people in the ghettos ventilating each other, nor do they care about statistical realities of violent crime (other than those tortured and warped to serve their ideology). 2. There is no compromise, there is no appeasement. Every step on gun control is just one more step toward lists and then confiscation. Fight them tooth and nail.
Cooper Williams
They've been doing this shit for decades now you absolute child. Happens almost every election cycle: Party A proposes a bill that will never pass, so they can accuse Party B of not passing it because they eat babies or something. Jesus christ at least take a basic poli-sci class before you run your mouth.
Ian Hernandez

Connor Rogers

Agreed in all other areas, except this one. The fact that someone can buy a gun without a background check is mind boggling. Get rid of every other gun law but god damn that's stupid.
Easton Wright
So? It no reason to get complacent
Josiah Clark

The fact that you're allowed to speak openly without a background check is mind boggling.
The fact that women are allowed to vote without a background check is mind boggling.
The fact they you're innocent until proven guilty without a background check is mind boggling.|
Do you see how retarded you sound?
Mason Gray
Also worth noting that all the evidence indicates gun control has a slight positive correlation with violent crime and homicide. The thing is that they talk about reducing "gun violence" rather than violence overall, a slight of hand that disregards deterrent/defense effects and implies that things can always be better (less "gun violence") with more gun control.
Kevin Anderson

The fact that it sounded that retarded is what should clue you in to the fact he's a troll/shill.

It was a resolution to consider hr 1112 So, that and hr8 are probably going to be considered as a package

Benjamin Hall
This guy knows what he's talking about. A major thing that sucks about them controlling the house is that they're no longer cucked and sitting on their thumbs.
Aiden Walker
It just keeps getting fucking worse. Why was I born in 95. Why do I live in MD I will never get to own any fun firearms. I was too busy in school, now I have to pay a mortgage on a house just so I can afford to someday own guns, but I WONT get to someday own guns because they keep takjing our rights and there isn't a nice place in the world to move to where I can buy guns...
Ethan Young
Eat shit. I don't need government approval to give my family or friends a firearm.
Asher Bell
No, you sound retarded. Those are all different issues. Guns are related to serious crime. Voting and all that other shit isn't. A brainlet would make those comparisons.
You need to be reasonable. Like I said I understand it's less convenient for you to have to get your background checked rather than just being able to buy a gun in a Walmart parking lot. But there are gangbangers buying guns in such parking lots and those turds are the reason you need guns in the first place. If some nigger killing your loved one is what it's going to take to get you to change your mind, that's called being dumb. Just see all aspects of the issue now instead. Some people shouldn't be allowed to legally buy a gun so easily.
Adrian Baker
>40723604 don't bite
John Phillips
Voting puts everyone on a level playing field even when they clearly are not.
It lets a billy bumblin 2 toothed redneck have the same voice as a 45 year veteran on an issue. All in the name of "democracy".
We are a republic and yet Liberal forces continue to push for a "common vote" and the abolition of the electoral college so their less educated constituents can have the same impact as those who actually understand issues.
Voting is more dangerous than firearms, because at least you can defend yourself against guns. You can't defend yourself when they vote to take your rights away just because they hold the majority,.
Thomas Hughes
>40723604 They aren't different issues, you want to make it a different issue so your logic can exist in your vacuum which is retarded from the get go.
>you need to be reasonable its completely unreasonable to assume that because my rights are being squandered in one area they cannot be squandered in another.
Gang bangers are NOT going to do this, this doesn't stop criminals from unlawfully trading especially because its more likely they were already unlawfully trading from the beginning.
What gains are there to be had when now I, an innocent civilian, will now have to jump through a hoop that a criminal never had to, won't have to, and never will have to, just to enjoy my rights
>Voting is more dangerous than firearms, because at least you can defend yourself against guns. You can't defend yourself when they vote to take your rights away just because they hold the majority,.
Actually you can, by using a gun
Jace Ramirez
Background checks aren't taking your guns you retard.
Nathaniel Wilson
What are you going to do? Shoot everyone who voted against you? You'll never make it. You can take it to court, but I hope you have a lot of money and enjoy prison while you wait.
Easton Brown
>Get rid of every other gun law but god damn that's stupid I don't think you're a shill and you honestly sound like you mean well. But it's stupid to think that this is a viable political strategy for defense of gun rights. There will never be a gun control measure traded for a repeal. No compromise will last. This is why we speak in the language of rights: because hard lines and principles are the ONLY things that preserve liberty over the long term.

How do you intend on enforcing this?
That's right: a registry and ATF entrapment.
Jackson Lee
at what point did I or anyone where have a say in what bills they propose. I voted against AOC but I cant counter the city alone user.
Luke Diaz
I'm sorry user. I was rude. I'm just.. upset and flustered. I feel like my vote has never counted and my voice has never been heard. I feel outgunned and backed into a corner and I just don't know what to do.
Jace Kelly
How can someone even be this blind?
Chase Watson
Its an attrition thing. Makes it harder for more people to get into guns, thus reducing the number of people to oppose more stringent laws. Its the long game that matters
David Sullivan
>be reasonable goy we just want a record of every firearm sold for your safety goy we would never abuse it trust us we are proud gun owners like you
Dont remember Jow Forums having this many shills before
You can't enforce it, which is why it doesn't matter. It's security theater legislation, nothing changes, the retards who straw purchase or sell to niggers will continue to do so, the only person who suffers is the buyer who has to pay extra for a check.
Parker Brooks
> Recent high-profile mass shootings like Vegas and Parkland committed with weapons bought through an FFL > This still happening
its alright user I understand. I've lived in new york all my life and had to sit here and watch my rights be eroded despite my voting efforts only to be told to run from the issue and leave state. Well god damn no. This is my home and I will stay to work towards a better future.
Ayden Russell
I stand corrected, but forgive me for not reading the multiple thousand word document and only ctrl+f for the word "private," but what is the specific verbiage that requires private parties to conduct a NICS check?
Evan Foster
I just wish my wife understood why I get so upset about this and didn't tell me I was being childish for wanting guns.
Hudson Garcia
>nothing changes except the looming fear of a felony over your head.
Unenforced laws are the most dangerous because you can't predict when you'll get slammed with it because you won't actively know you're breaking it.
If speeding laws were rarely enforced it'd be the same thing.
Aaron Gomez
The bigger problem is that it's not within any federal power. This is literally the opposite of interstate commerce, which is the power justifying BCs at traditional gun stores. I expect UBCs to hold up at the state level, but not federal, assuming they ever pass.
>(t) (1) (A) It shall be unlawful for any person who is not a licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, or licensed dealer to transfer a firearm to any other person who is not so licensed, unless a licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, or licensed dealer has first taken possession of the firearm for the purpose of complying with subsection (s).
Functionally this means that you will have to hand over the transferred firearm to someone with a FFL to perform a background check before it can be handed over to the person youre selling to
Joshua Johnson
>literally the opposite of interstate commerce
So what youre telling me is, this will be an easy SCOTUS win
Owen Myers
>IM PISSED BECAUSE FILLING OUT A PIECE OF PAPER VIOLATES MY RIGHTS
I guess voting registration violates your rights too huh?
Jace Fisher
It will take a decade or more to go to SCOTUS
Basically someone has to get arrested for breaking this law and press up, have the money to do it or have nothing to lose.
Blake Myers
Hang in there user. We may fight like catholic priests over the last altar boy, but Jow Forums is a family. I propose a “how you doing, user?” thread.
It does because voting registration is what they used to deny blacks the right to vote.
Tyler Kelly
Maybe I'll take you up on it. Gotta go on Armslist and sell a few of my guns which really sucks. Good ol USA, gotta pay some bills and I got more toys than I know what to do with that I just don't want. I'm a .22lr connoisseur and I love subsonic especially so I'm a real niche...
