Also, I never said this was a "compromise." I'm just trying to find a solution to keep guns out of the wrong hands, while allowing normal people to be affected as little as possible. I would think this would be a common goal of all sides. Not a give and take. But something to strive for.
I guess that's the point. You wouldn't have to go through a background check. Neither would 99% of gun owners on this forum who have an LTCH. If I want to sell a gun to you: Done. You to me: Done. But I guess I just don't have a concern with being required, as opposed to being advisable, to see...
Well, you do have the option to run a person through NICS, you just got to an FFL and they will do it for a fee. But more to the point, do you feel some responsibility to ensure you're not selling you're gun to a bad person? A felon? A rapist?
To your statement, you can sell a car to a drunk...
So, amid the absolute grid-lock in Congress over anything gun-rights related, I figured I'd throw this out there and just get INGunOwners' thoughts:
What if the legislation to expand background checks had the following caveats:
All transfers at gun shows should require a background check...
Sen. Long is considering moving SB97, which would allow carry on college campuses and in other State facilities that do not house a courtroom, out of the Rules Committee for a hearing. This bill would allow college student the opportunity to defend themselves from being robbed, or, in the...
We need to TRY and educate these people. If they aren't educated, we'll never be able to have a rational debate. I'm blogged extensively about the AWB and why it's bad, and I've actually gotten good feedback from people about how it enlightened them. So throw these links around anywhere you guys...

Caverjamie,
I think you would be quite pleasantly surprised at how little no-knock warrants are used. It is probably less than 1% of the time. And the situation you laid out is used by LEOs all the time, often in place of a no-knock. No-knocks, at least as I've known them executed, are done...
I have selectively quoted your text so that I can respond where pertinent. Let me just say this so cover 90% of your argument:
You seem to think that "reasonable suspicion" isn't reasonable. That's not possible. It either is reasonable, or it isn't. And a judge determines that, in cases where...
After review, I think its fair to say that at the point the driver said something to the effect of, "Am I free to go," the rest of the stop after that point was invalid. The passenger may have been nervous, the driver may have been throwing off indicators (and he was -- "there are no drugs to my...
thebishopp,
You're right. We shouldn't have police, because they could be tyrants. And we should change the law so that under no circumstances whatsoever can a police officer enter your home without a warrant supported by probable cause that a crime has been committed.
You're house is on...
