Yes, private sales should be subject to checks, but how could it be done?

Would you want to sell a gun to someone not allowed to have it? I sure as hell wouldn't.

The question what check is going to be run? On the purchaser only or would it include firearm serial numbers?

It seems it would be too much trouble to have such a system.

Not allowed by who? The same people who want to stick their noses into my private business? I trust my own judgement more than some clown in DC.

Would you want to sell a vehicle to a felon in which to elude capture?

Or gasoline to an arsonist? Or a knife to Jack the RipperII ?

Or rope or duct tape to a potential rapist?

You would penalize the innocent to protect the innocent! We have laws that cover all of these already! Big Brother get out of my life!
