Mandatory Drug Testing for Firearms Purchases

Created by A.S. on September 27, 2011

Many people have called for drug testing of welfare recipients. It seems reasonable that individuals seeking to purchase firearms should also be required to submit to a drug test prior to gaining ownership of these deadly weapons.

This would protect society and law enforcement from drug abusers and addicts seeking to use deadly firearms, often in criminal acts.

This administration should urge Congress and the states to pass legislation to this effect.
