I did. I've demonstrated to you that any bipartisan bill that gets passed will have exemptions which make your questions moot.
OH, ok...so when I said 'If I sell one of these ‘unidentified’ firearms to my neighbor and he gets into an altercation with it then informs LEO’s that I sold it to him, I can merely deny it as it is his word against mine' I will get an exemption for that...COOL. Now answer 'Essentially what good is an unenforceable law?' and we will be all good!
Well if criminals aren't able to get guns at guns shows the same way they can't in gun shops then of course we'll see the murder rate go down. It's common sense. In the same way when one day someone threw a rock of an overpass and killed someone we now have barricades on all overpasses. In what way does doing nothing solve anything? And you wouldn't like me if I ran things. The one thing no one in DC mentions is how easy it is lie on a background check. Why don't we improve background checks. Base them around the polygraph so we can root out liars and the mentally unhealthy.
No what I am saying is that it is likely that a small number of individual sales will likely be exempted and is therefore a moot point. Only the far right think it will be unenforceable.
So you agree that someone dangerous who couldn't buy a gun in a gun shop should be able to easily acquire one at a gun show and go and buy 6,000 rounds on ammo online with paper trail?
that isn't the parameter used to judge a law
that's just stupidYou're asking for magical solve all problems solution. I'm suggesting we curb the problem. There is no one solution but any solution is better than the way things are now.
Show us where anytime in the last 19 years that background checks have been ruled to be an infringement of Constitutional rights?

Ok, I am the far right, explain how it will be enforceable...some detail will be appreciated!
that's silly. and since I shot my way out of a mugging I have a perspective I doubt you can fathom.
the problem with the schemes that big government fans advance is that they mainly impact law abiding people (which of course is the intent anyway)
Just as it did in the 50's before it skyrocketed.that's just stupid
gun crime has been DECREASING even though the number of guns in private circulation has INCREASED
Because no gun control will work if not implemented federally. Listen to police chiefs in cities like Chicago and Philly. The laws in those places don't matter when someone can just drive over to the next state and buy firearms. And I agree with you on war on drugs. It was an utter failure and people finally aren't buying into the mythology about marijuana. I still haven't heard any solutions from you, just complaining about what I'm saying. What would you do to solve this you were in charge? Besides nothing because that won't change anything.
Only the far right think it will be unenforceable.
I'm still waiting for an idea from one of you. :]that's just stupid

No. What is wanted is a registration system and high fees.
Currently records must be kept for all BG checks by FFL dealers, that will not "go away".
Yes, I would agree when it comes to gun laws, the restriction impact the law abiding firearms owners. The criminal don't care what the laws are. There is a part of me that says the government has no right to know what weapons I own or have or those of my neighbors. But the government knows I own a gun because I went down to the probate court and renewed my carry permit. So it probably doesn't matter. I guess it all depends on how much one trusts their own government. But one thing to remember, a gun is nothing more than a tool, much like a hammer or a screw driver. How that tool is used depends on the user. I don't know which side to come down on and in the end it probably doesn't matter. After all, being retired military I am all ready on DHS Janet Napolitano list as a potential terrorist.
It has total relevance. It shows trends are not permanent, and bound to change.that has zero relevance to this issue
