Dialogue like that posted in the first four are not exactly what this statement suggests.

“I think it’s important that people on both sides of the issue get together and talk,” Stanley said.

IMO, unlicensed dealers as seem to be largely present at the last two show I attended are those who rent tables and offer potentially hundreds of modern firearms to anyone with the money. A legit dealer tends to oppose this failure of adequate control, mostly from a competitive issue rather than the moral one but still they oppose it. I oppose it as well.
HOWEVER, I see a nice looking firearm offered by some old dud with an Army hat on and buy it from him for my use….NO NEED FOR A CHECK. Single gun transactions between individuals need not be “regulated”.

Exempting gun buyers at gun shows from meeting the requirements they would have to meet if buying from a licensed gun shop is like exempting drivers from needing a driver’s license if they buy their car from an individual instead of from a licensed car dealer.

You want to tell women what to do with their womb and it is us who should be ashamed? There is something seriously wrong with your picture. Can you possibly believe that only Democrats have abortions? Can you be that dense?

Because you do not have the sense to support all efforts to end abortion (and you don’t), you cannot claim it is Dems who are the “ardent” supporters of it. Your efforts seem pretty “ardent” too.

Murdering unborn children is what turns the Democrats like `hokie hater` on…Hillbillies keeping their guns ? Yep.

Funny republicans are against abortion but once the child is born they don’t care if they suffer, whether it be through hunger, lack of shelter, lack of heat, or being gunned down. As long as the hillbillies get to keep their guns.

Shame on YOU for trying to tell people what to do with their property! Democrats love dead innocent children as seen through their ardent support of abortion.

Anyone against background checks, are simply in favor of the slaughter of innocent people and letting felons and mentally ill people owning guns. Shame on anyone that votes against MANDATORY background checks you all have blood on your hands.
