Re: Universal Background Checks: An American Fantasy
Andy, I understand you posted it for future reference, but I've thought about this stuff many times. I've pointed out that there are nowhere near enough LEOs, particularly Federal LEOs, to remotely enforce something of that nature, even if they were all dedicated just to that task. It's not a matter of want on the part of the grabbers, they certainly want us all disarmed very badly; it's a matter of logistics...and they seem to have the most extremely poor understanding of logistics. I do understand the argument of "those laws will be enforced in a manner to create a chilling effect on firearms". And that has a possibility of working in some areas. But, this is a BIG nation with a lot of localities, counties, and even some states, that flat-out disagree with that stuff. Witness the NY State Sheriffs who said they would not waste any personnel enforcing the so-called SAFE Act. And that's in a grabber-friendly state. I'm sure I'll get told off about not knowing what I'm talking about, and that's fine, maybe I don't. But even California is full of unregistered "assault weapons", and I don't just mean the ones in the hands of gangs, but there isn't much the authorities there can do about it.
