House Democrats Ready Bill to Criminalize Private Gun Sales

The incoming Democrat House majority is readying legislation to criminalize private gun sales.

Ironically, the push comes nearly 227 years to the day after private gun ownership was hedged in by the Founding Fathers via the Second Amendment, which was ratified on December 15, 1791.

Politico reports that Rep. Mike Thompson (D-CA) is spearheading the current gun control push through “universal background” legislation. Such checks criminalize private gun sales, making it illegal for a neighbor to sell a firearm to his neighbor, a friend to his lifelong friend, and even a father to his son.

The Revolution nor the Civil War was fought by " Sunshine Patriots " with hunting arms. We had local armories and Militia and both conflicts were fought with foreign made arms. I like and collect guns buy and sell them. I don't feel threatened at all by any sort of CONTROL they are just objects of trade like vintage Tupperware. I do care who's hands they end up in and their motives paranoid and otherwise.

No "law" can stop this, just as no law has ever stopped gun possession from theft. Laws have never stopped mass shootings, and criminal who do not respect laws will always have stolen guns and use them to commit crimes.

In whose imagination lies the fact that criminals who willfully steal and commit murder will go there route of obtaining a firearm through a background check by a licensed dealer?
