        Even at a gun show there is a background check.

        in some states yes, but federal law doesn't require it when it comes to private sellers.

        Very small exception. If the politicians really cared about gun violence they would work on enforcement of existing laws.

        Less than 10 states require universal background & less than 20 go beyond the federal law. It's a big exception/loophole.

        How many crimes committed by persons who bought a firearm from a private seller at a gun show without a background check?

        we already have background checks. None of the recent mass shootings would have been stopped by a background check

        this is a liberal talking point. Gun crime means more gun laws, let's try some actual solutions. Schools with armed security etc

        very true for me, I have had a personal carry since the early 80's, why are people afraid to wait, register and educate?

        @Everytown The @NRA doesn’t release member info. This graphic & statistic is deliberately misleading.

        @Everytown gun owners want to outlaw private transfers and have all transactions go through gov approval? Hilarious. No.
