Re: Universal Background Checks - a Trojan Horse
Gun owners are a much more diverse group than many of us consider. On this board, most members seem to grasp the significance of words and phrases often used by "gun control" activists, pollsters and the media. The issue is that huge numbers of gun owners seem to miss the nuances we often pick up on. The average Joe living a happy, comfortable life in the US cannot fathom that "universal background checks" might ever be a problem -- until it becomes one when a friend or family member ends up incarcerated for improperly loaning or transferring ownership of a gun to someone. Therefore, they are quick to hop on the band-wagon of 'common sense" initiatives like universal background checks, effectively providing ammunition to folks truly interested in confiscating their property and force options. The devil is in the details, and he is constantly paving roads for us to travel.
