Maybe they’ll add “Have you ever been a registered Democrat?” to Form
4473.

Claims??? Tells me right there that no matter what President Trump says or does, the Fake News Media and demonicRATS will continue to bash and discredit him.

Trump’s problem is he listens to that moron daughter of his...


I doubt that. I have two liberal daughters. I figure they will grow out of it, but they are in their mid-30’s.

Politically, I consider them children. Toddlers, actually.

FR’s boomer bridgade and their gereatric-level hot takes can be as irritating as the anything you hear from the left, that’s for sure.

There was some professor, University of Michigan IIRC, who said that psych exams are needed, and wanting to own a gun in the first place is an indisputable sign of mental illness that should prevent someone from owning a gun.

“Trump’s problem is he listens to that moron daughter of his,
that liberal twit should be banned from the Whitehouse.”

Don’t forget Jared the Worthless. Jared is going to make us eat a Jared sandwich with this immigration bill he’s ‘crafting’.

Would strong background checks have saved Vince Foster?

There ya go. I would love to see him propose something like that. Single demonicRATS out as the reason for mass murders and watch them squeal like stuck pigs even though that is exactly what they are doing by blaming President Trump and his supporters.

The second amendment was designed to protect “We The People” from the government. Protect “We The People” with better laws against the corrupt deep sate government and then we can talk about the second amendment.

I would mostly agree with you....adding the the Stoneman Douglas School shooting. In that case, the twenty-odd visits by the police to the home...should have been flagged, and that kid by age 16 should have been taken to a full-up max security facility. The local cops had chances, and just kept saying....let’s see how far this kid can go.

“Um, Trump is tying Immigration Reform to any ‘Background Check’ legislation.
The Dems will never go for that. “

Kushner is working on immigration reform and I’m betting it will include a continued invasion and amnesty. Why wouldn’t the Dems vote for it. None of these people are working for us.

Although I recoil at anything leading to gun restrictions, modernization of the background system is fine with me...on our terms. For example, this Dayton shooters ‘hit list’ should be part of the background check. It was expunged as juvenile record but should play into ability to buy a weapon a few years later. We have infinitely more data today that 25 years ago and more should go in to it. Especially for people under 25 where we are seeing this problem. Believe me I see the danger of opening Pandora’s box here, but much like immigration, we would benefit by modernizing the systems.

A New Yorker who’s a strong advocate for our 2nd amendment rights? I don’t know if there’s been one of them since 1776. This is what’s scared me about Trump all along. Let’s just hope it’s one of his negotiating tactics.

It’s defacto registration. ‘Modernization’ has nothing to do with it.

A bunch of hyperventilating pansies.

It’s August 2019, and they’re ready to concede the 2020 race.

Then once you have a psych exam, you fail since that is a disqualification on the gun purchase form.

How do you let the violent, mentally ill keep records shut? Is that not like telling no one the suicide bomber is getting on the plane or bus?

It's not a negotiating tactic. It's what he believes.
