Rumble on the Hill: Groups Square Off About How to End Gun Violence

Sarah Brady made a name for herself off of her husbands misfortune. Otherwise, who would have ever known her name. Now she's powerbroker for the gun control/gun ban crowd. By the way, she is guilty of providing a firearm to her son without a background check being done on him. She bought him a high powered rifle for deer hunting. Many liberals refer to those guns as "sniper rifles". How do we know her son was not prohibited from possessing a firearm under some federal, state, or local laws? We don't. However, we can probably trust her judgement regarding her son. Just the same as me selling my sons, daughters, sisters, brothers, wife, dad, uncles, and aunts without going through a background check. Most of the 40% number of gun sales...

...without background checks are people selling to friends, relatives, etc, who are not criminals. The anti gun folks on the left have seized upon that 40% number as a factoid they can use to scare the general public who don't know what the real situation is. Why should my son go through a background check if I want to sell him or give him some of my firearms? That's just stupid. If I know he's not allowed to possess, then it's already a violation of federal law for me to give him one, whether via a gift or a sale.
