Make no mistake: The universal background check bill would not have done anything to stop criminals from acquiring, using, and brokering firearms. Nothing.
This law was purely a symbolic feel-good measure brought forward by the same bunch that tried to pull this trick six years ago.
Worse, the language of the Bill expressly denied Second Ammendment firearms rights to any 'mentally ill' person forever, without any right of appeal.
What's wrong with that, you ask? This: the devil is in the definition of 'mentally ill'. The anti-gun legislators who crafted this eight-thousand page 'law' used vague, overly broad, obfuscatory, conflicting, and utterly disingenuous language to creatively define virtually every citizen as 'mentally ill' and thus forever barred from owning firearms.
Anyone who ever saw their school vocational counselor for job advice after graduation was deemed 'mentally ill...unfit to own firearms'. Anyone whose family doctor prescribed them a mild sleeping aid following the death of a loved one was deemed 'mentally ill', and on and on and on.
Worse yet, even the bill's promoters admitted it that it would do nothing, absolutely nothing, to prevent criminals and criminally insane individuals from acquiring all the firearms they wanted.
So in light of that, what was the real goal here? Nothing good, and that's why even the democrats scuttled this pile of garbage legislation to the bottom of the outhouse basement.

With an on-site fire station, how'd the blaze get going to this extent? Who discovered it? What'd the building house? Records? Equipment? How long had it been going before being discovered? How long did it take the FD to knock down the blaze? Where in the building did the blaze start?
Hmmmm....this and reports of increased smuggling thru the Bahamas? Starting to sound like the 70s all over again?

Kudos to Dr. Minnis for speaking out, for asking straightforward questions which others fear to answer.

Agree. Dr. Minnis is indeed right. As President Reagan well said, 'if you can't make the light, then make them feel the heat'.
There's no place to hide with so many citizen reporters on the Net. Truth, as does murder, outs - always.
