    Default Re: Bill would put background checks on bullets

    This bill proves one thing...

    It shows that they already know background checks don't work. You don't have a gun to shoot if you failed the background check in the first place.

    was a serious question, what if someone makes everything themselves as was the norm in the past, how is that regulated? how do you stop them? enforcement is the absolute last thought when a bill is written.

    pass the buck mentality. if i recall they have outright said enforcement isn't their problem. virtue signaling to the max, "WE'VE GOT TO DO SOMETHING! ANYTHING!" even if it has no effect. like creating crimes that can only have charges be brought up after a greater crime has been comitted thus having the lesser charges dropped. but we did something!!!

    and why has the dws investigation gone quiet? why isn't she in prison yet? [is sadly rhetorical]

    Why Are Federal Bureaucrats Buying Guns And Ammo? $158 Million Spent By Non-Military Agencies. Will they get a background check? BTW. They don't have guns before so why do they need ammo?

    Yeah but now you have to pay PA sales tax on PSA stuff. Sometimes it's just enough to kill the deal.

    This is just the tip of the iceberg. If they pass this, it will be milliseconds before they put an "sin" tax on ammo to fund the extra work of having to an entirely automated background check. Then that tax will be constantly ratcheted up until only the wealthy can afford to purchase ammo from the 1 or 2 manufacturers that haven't gone out of business. Then it's a short jump to "Only the wealthy have guns anyways, we need to just get rid of them."

    I'd say they have no foresight, but this probably their plan anyways.

    That’s a very low estimate.

    If it gets to the point that only the wealthy have guns, then they will decide that is fine with them, as that is what they wanted all along. It's just we commoners having guns that bothers them.
