HA, LOL, dream on, or did you forget the sarcasm tag?Hypothetical:
------------------------------------
I post gunXX for sale on THR. I post my phone number or some other method of non-internet communication. I state: "Do not tell me that you saw my advertisement or tell me where you saw it. If you do, I will not sell. Simply say, "I am looking for gunXX, do you have one to sell?"
Later, I get a call saying, "I am looking for gunXX, do you have one to sell?"
We arrange a meeting, no one ever says the word "internet" or "The High Road". We conclude the transaction and go on our way.

Legal under this proposed law?

Gah. After reading this post I wandered over to that Million Moms for Nobody Ever Having a Gun Herpderpderp site. The comments on that site make my brain hurt.I've been monitoring the conversation about this bill on several sites and the general consensus among anti-gunner's is that they think that it is far too lax and watered-down. If I've learned one thing from this latest go-round it is that gun-grabbers are now fully out of the closet about their real agenda. They mean to destroy the Constitution and they will say anything to make that happen.
How many times have you read that "no one is going to take your guns" or "no one wants to eliminate the Second Amendment?"
Lies.
Just wondering why there isn’t a one million dads for gun control? I googled and sadly all that came up was one million dads for gun rights.
What's the big deal? How about the fact that if you and I live in the same state and you go on THR's Trading Post and see that I've got a neat-o rifle for sale we cannot simply get together and make the deal. We'll have to go to a dealer and put that gun and your name on paper just like folks selling across state lines or buying from a dealer to begin with.
Want to buy or sell a gun from a friend or your brother-in-law? Well, the seller will be required to submit buyer to a background check, and pay for it. Oh, the antis will say no, no such thing, but the devil is always concealed in the legalese details, to be interpreted by faceless bureaucrats enforcing the law.After reading all the news recently i can't seem to find and answer or maybe I'm looking at the wrong thing. When they say Expanded background checks, what is expanded about them? They are checking a great amount of transactions? or are they checks that dig further into your background, not just legal, but medication, work history, etc?
It might be a stupid question but i think its being sold one way, to "keep mentally ill from purchasing weapons" but is in accuality something else.
as quoted earlier. So what exactly is the big deal? As stated - private party sales are OK as long as you do not sell to strangers you advertise to on the internet. The MAIN THING they are going after is the guy at gun shows with the "no background checks" sign on his table who hands over a Glock to anyone with enough cash who walks up to his table.
You figured that out, did you?It is nothing but to get records of people swapping guns.
If person A or B in an undercover agent then you are in trouble. Unfortunately we have to follow the law. That is why keeping unfair laws off the books is so importantIf private party guy A, sells to private party guy B, who will know unless someone says something?
Just about everyone will be a crook when DC is done doing what they want.
Do criminals care about getting caught?
I suppose only the ones that get caught.
I'm just glad I don't make a living buying, selling, or trading guns.
How about the fact that if I head off to the local gun show and walk the aisles with a "For Sale" sign on my FAL or 870, I cannot simply sell that gun to another resident of my state.
