There are some things that the government can do on a federal level which would benefit the people. Gun control is one of them in my opinion.<br /><br />You can't say the background check requirement is a PR and perception thing because it's never been tried. The way it is now, so easily circumvented, makes it useless. Proper background check requirements on all gun sales would go a long way to slowing down the gun flow into the criminal world. But, since that's just theory at this point, one must employ a bit of common sense and honesty to see it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09806175370305006933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-50014219504727554002011-06-11T09:56:51.759+02:002011-06-11T09:56:51.759+02:00Why can't I own a war worthy tank or fighter j...Why can't I own a war worthy tank or fighter jet?

Comparatively speaking, the GOA, SAF, JPFO, and the CCRKBA are a bit more hard core. Where I would disagree with Ted though is in <i>effectiveness</i> between groups<br /><br />The NRA isn't perfect but they are after all the oldest civil rights organization in the country. The Gorilla in the room in stopping misguided legislation. <br /><br />The rest have had zero success in stopping any piece of legislation.<br /><br /><i>"Are real Libertarians too extreme for the NRA? Do they really consider background checks which prevent some bad people from getting guns, an infringement of rights?</i><br /><br />Most people who have been around long enough recognize that background checks are more PR and perception than anything else. <br /><br />From a Libertarian perspective, its never extreme to look for methods to get things done without government involvement. <br /><br />BTW - A libertarian might also say that once one has served their time in jail, all of their rights should be restored. And that includes gun rights.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
