Oklahoma Republican Sen. Tom Coburn said Sunday any Senate legislation on gun control that includes a national registry of firearms owners will be a deal breaker.
Coburn is part of the bipartisan Senate panel seeking ways to curb gun violence and that purportedly is about to agree on a proposal to expand background checks to most private gun sales, with national record-keeping still unresolved.
“There absolutely will not be record-keeping of legitimate gun owners,” Coburn told “Fox News Sunday.” “That will kill this bill.”
The potential deal on background checks was reported Saturday by The Washington Post
.“I don’t think we’re that close,” Coburn also said.

From what I have read they are already illegaly keeping records from checks. There should be a $100,000 dollar fine and a year in jail for each record illegaly kept. And the fine goes to the victim, not the government.

ReplyDeleteI'll vote for that.

Background checks are a registry.
Of course they are supposed to discard it after checking, but I wouldn't bet the ranch on that.
It's a deal breaker to vote on anything except reversal of all gun laws. 33
ReplyDeleteNow, that's a winner.
