“In most states you can go to a gun show or buy a gun over the internet, without a background check and it just makes it easy for criminals and people who are dangerously ill to get firearms when they shouldn't. Hey, I’m a gun owner. I own a lot of guns, I’m a big supporter of the second amendment, the same time, I don't see why we can't make it harder for criminals to get guns, we should be able to do that,” Kelly said.
Kelly says universal background checks have been adopted in eight states, and their organization “Americans for Responsible Solutions” is working with dozens of others. |

Looking for a solution to a problem that does not exist.
Criminals don't buy their guns at gun shows. They steal them or buy them on the black market.
These so called universal background checks aren't going to stop one criminal gun purchase. They will only inconvenience law abiding citizens. |

TO REMEMBER |
| For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
