The Moderate Approach: Enact Background checks for all firearm purchases and create laws for irresponsible owners.

Created by C.N. on January 25, 2013

Every American is entitled to their own opinion on gun control. The current debate in DC is not evoking what the heart of the average American feels. This is a call to take a more moderate approach by enacting and/or supporting the following:

-Create a law requiring a background check to purchase any firearm. Individuals selling firearms must use a broker to carry through with a transaction.

-Require individuals to register all firearms with brokers.

-Create laws for violent crimes initiated by firearms where the person carrying out the act is not the registered owner of the firearm. A law for both the firearm owner and the initiator, unless the firearm has been reported stolen.

Banning any firearm is not the answer; Creating accountability for individuals who aren't responsible, is.
