So it turns out that pro-gun proponents don't really support background checks after all

107. So,

If you want private citizens to keep records of sales, how will you enforce that requirement without access to the location where they keep those records? It's in no legislation because it's a political and civil rights non starter. That's why Mancin/Toomey explicitly made registration illegal, which doomed it from the start and turned the debate into political theater.

If you believe something, that's fine. You have yet to prove that your beliefs, when acted upon in the real world, will actually make people's lives better. The best you are able to do is focus on certain aspects of the problem that that confirm your bias. Anybody can read this subthread and see the contradictions in what you want to do. Every time I point out those contradiction and inaccuracies you ignore them and recharacterize the discussion in terms of religious belief, because that is how you interpret the issue. There are any number of possible reasons for that attitude, most of which are unflattering for anyone who expresses it.

I asked you to prove your policy proposals would work, and you failed to do so. But no matter, I don't mind asking you again.

How will you make registration work without damaging and unnecessary sacrifice of people's civil rights and privacy? If you are able to accomplish that, will universal background checks and the required registry actually help any given individual survive an assault against another? If so, explain how that will work.
