What are you going to do this week to support expanded background checks?

223. I already explained to you how that bill works

And what about it is idiocy, burdensome, and illogical.

A bill that requires me, already exempt from the check, to go out of my way to travel to a gun dealer, pay a dealer a fee so he can record all my personal info and the exact details of my purchase, while still not doing a check is a badly written bill.

A bill that would require the same if loaning a rifle to a hunting buddy, if loaned even minutes before the season opens or if the person must travel through any cities to the hunting ground, is a bad bill. Ohh, and another trip to the gun dealer, another fee, and more paperwork to return the loaned gun.

It is bad legislation. Badly written, by people trying to get to a good goal (maybe, I take them at their word on this) but who are clearly pretty ignorant about the realities of what implementation would mean.

Pass legislation making felons of two people who already both own guns if they loan a shotgun for hunting the day before the season opens (because everybody gets ready the days before, my dad sure does) or for an out of state hunting trip and you drive the occasional hunter, ok with reasonable gun control person, into the hands of the NRA.
