Good discussion, but you might want to at least start listening at mark 20:17 where they bring up the ATF 4473 and how hit-or-miss background checks are.
Because, Government knows how to do one thing right: f#ck sh!t up.
In THEORY, this country would have a fraction of the problems we experience if the solutions they dreamed up were actually implemented and managed as they should be.
What drives me nuts is this concept that the government can fix anything.
or do anything to make life better.
It can't and even if it could it would not.
It is a zero sum game, if Democrats win everyone else loses.
I just tossed that in as every one here expects that from me.
What is necessary is to make everyone responsible for their actions.
And make sure they understand that.
Family is the glue that holds society together - not government.
All these shooting tragedies are primarily due to kids with just a Mom or grandma,
and they can't/won't admit they have a nutcase kid.
and thanks to the ACLU, they can't do anything about it.
Take us back to the 50's, Divorce was nasty. Shacking up for lengthy times was bad,
and chase down dad's for child support.
Dad paying for pussy he isn't getting will stick around.
A bad family is better than no family, statistically speaking.
