GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, OR DO THEY?

[F.U.]

I'm just wondering if those pushing for this understand what they are even talking about. Making anyone that sells a gun, get a FFL IS NOT going to happen. I say that not because I don't think people will apply, but because the ATF wont allow it to happen. The ATF denies most FFL applications from kitchen table dealers, as it is. I was told no when I applied for my FFL when I was going to run a business out of my house. But as soon as I had a store front that I could set up shop in, Whammo, here is your license. Well that is after I paid my $200 to the feds [that's what this is really all about, more $$ in their pockets. That's what its always about, MONEY] , had a agent come out and inspect the storefront and lecture me on the way to do business. SOooo , I don't see any of these little guys getting permission from the feds to operate a biz out of their house [that is unless they loosen they rules to allow home dealers].
I think this should have ben approached from a different angle. Instead of saying you must be a FFL to sell a gun I think they should have said the transaction must be RUN THROUGH a FFL. A transfer through a FFL is only 25-50 dollars, depending on where you are in the country. That would have ben a much better approach than saying a person must hold a FFL.
That being said the entire situation is a feel good, hope it works fuck fest. I say that because guns are not registered in this country. So how will they know who owned what and when? I see nothing that he is doing that is enforceable. But at least he will make the gun grabbers happy and say see, I did something and they will be dumb enough to nod their heads and say yep, you sure did.

Good news for you F.U.; your complaints validate some of the reasons why the Executive Actions have been proposed; they address some of your complaints.

The ATF criteria for qualifying "dealers" has in fact been changed to specifically include people who sell arms outside of traditional gun stores. Good news.

And, with more sellers qualifying as dealers and thus being licensed, more background checks will be required. Your recent position on universal background checks is a big thumbs up. So, good news for you there too, F.U.

And, since the ATF will of course know who those newly-licensed dealers are, they can take actions against those who fail to run the required background checks and/or sell to unqualified buyers. And, the ATF will also be able to more easily require those in the under-the-table business of dealing guns to be licensed when they come across them, using the new criteria. More enforcement of existing laws, as you rightfully advocate often. More good news.

As for this being all about money, I personally feel the NRA and gun lobbyists who oppose the current proposal are objecting due primarily to money motives; the more guns in more hands (legally or not), the more ammunition sold, the more upgrades desired, the more introduced to the next generation, etc...

And even if money is a partial motive for the government, if you've got a business selling guns and you're doing it under the table (and therefore not paying like other businesses), it's another problem solved under the proposed Executive Actions. Good news again.

You must feel really good that complaints you've lodged and corrections you've suggested in regards to the current system are being addressed by these Executive Actions. But, if you want to make their enforcement easier and more effective by establishing that gun registry you always put forth, that's gonna have to wait. It's not being proposed.

Do you really believe what you typed? Do you really think they are going to loosen the noose and make it easier for people to buy and sell guns? You have got to be joking or at least that is what I am reading through your sarcasm.
And yes, it is all about the money. Why else would they allow people to own fully automatic weapons, silencers, sbs, sbr, etc, well that is as long as they get there cut of the money pie. They do that and let the general population think they have outlawed those weapons. Its a win win for them. We matter not to them as long as they can keep the money train rolling along.
You seam like a smart person and then you go and post some shit like this and make me wonder if you are just fucking with me like I fuck with you , or not.
