the fact that 90% support it should be obvious that most see it as *a* solution moondog Send a noteboard - 22/04/2013 05:32:42 PM

I know the left blames the NRA and the evil republicans but they fact is Obama and the left has done a piss poor job selling the idea that it would do any real good. I lot of people may be willing to agree with the idea but not a lot of people see it a s solution to gun violience.

also, obama didn't filibuster the bill so that 60 votes were required to pass it. i think that the problem is that the bill was specifically about guns, it would have probably been much better to wrap it up in an anti-crime bill like in 1994. it's easy for senators to vote against gun restrictions, but it's harder for them to vote against strengthening local police forces.

The point is that background checks already exist on every commercial firearm transaction. HyogaRott - 27/04/2013 05:16:41 AM 685 Views
but we all know there is no correlation between having a gun and shooting someone with it moondog - 22/04/2013 05:30:12 PM 626 Views
