Why would any resonsible gun owner want people that shouldn`t be able to have firearms be allowed to get them? WalMart is saying that they will sell you a gun when they can determine that you are qualified. What is wrong with that? Did they turn you down?

The question, rather, is why would any Constitution-loving business or individual seek to be more intrusive than our unConstitutional laws require in checking out a potential gun-buyer?

By the way, where in the Second Amendment do you find the word "qualified?" Am I missing something?

I wonder if Wal-Mart determines if customers buying axes, hammers, and knives are "qualified," too? Last I heard these can be pretty lethal, too.

Wonder how our Republic survived back in the days (that I still remember) when you could walk into a store and buy a gun or even order one via the mail?

And, nope. Sorry to disappoint: Never been turned down for a gun sale, yet.
