[QUOTE="abajaj11, post: 2058479, member: 3553"] [U]Check this out:[/U] "Gun-safety activists were coalescing around expanded background checks as a key goal for the vice president's task force. Some advocates said it may be more politically realistic - and even more effective as policy - than reinstating a ban on assault weapons. The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence said some 40 percent of gun sales happen with no background checks, such as at gun shows and by private sellers over the Internet or through classified ads. [B]"Our top policy priority is closing the massive hole in the background check system," the group said Friday.[/B] While not backing off support for an assault weapons ban, some advocates said there could be broader political support for increasing background checks, in part because that could actually increase business for retailers and licensed gun dealers who have access to the federal background check system." __________ from: [url]http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_OBAMA_GUN_CONTROL?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2013-01-11-21-48-28[/url] We have to prevent this loophole closing from being passed because it will lead to mandatory registration via executive order, IMHO. PLease consider talking about this when you call your senators and reps. IMHO, this should be our line in the sand. :) [/QUOTE]
