Reply #22: Background check hasn't stopped me from getting one. [View All]

[SlipperySlope]

If someone is being prevented by a Brady background check from getting a firearm, it means one of two things to me.

1: They are a person who is prohibited from owning firearms (convicted felon, etc.)
2: There was a mistake made.

I philosophically disagree with background checks, but in practice they have never gotten in my way of buying a gun. If your buddies don't like (1) then I wonder if they think *anyone* should be prohibited weapons. If your buddies experienced (2), then there are relatively simple ways to get the mistake corrected.
