Even if I didn't have a problem with this proposed law, which I do, what exactly does this do to prevent anything?
All this does is make law abiding citizens go through that many more hoops to own a gun. If someone's going to shoot up a school or go pay their boss a visit while packing heat, has fuckall to do with someone with the intent of acquiring an illegal firearm to engage in illegal activity.
I mean I guess that a bunch of liberal pussies need to do something to make these senseless deaths mean something, but beating law-abiding citizens over the head repeatedly is beyond reproach.
