Would you consider requiring a background check before being allowed to speak or write in public to not be a 1st Amendment issue as well?
Watch Larry King interview Mark David Chapman about the night he shot John Lennon.
I don't understand why we would not want people like this having to go through a background check.

When one has served their sentence, any and all civil rights- voting, RKBA; etc- should be reinstated. If one is deemed to have " lost them", or is " too dangerous " why release them ever?
Again, this constant expansion of terms " felon" and " prohibited person " is deliberate and has NOTHING to do with public safety.
Precisely! We are dealing with unscrupulus, highly devious, master manipulators. Whats worse, the opposition is painfully inept, you cannot compromise with wolves as they prepare you for their dinner, even if its only one limb at a time.When one has served their sentence, any and all civil rights- voting, RKBA; etc- should be reinstated.

So what do you do? Your rights have been denied by a faceless bureaucrat and you can't even argue with them.
Poking your brother in the chest with a fingertip during an argument can lose your firearm rights for life if he decides to call the police and report a "domestic assault". Automatic loss of firearm rights for life in my state to have that on your record.
Some things are none of the government's business.
The "universal background check" con is just a stalking horse for REGISTRATION.I don't understand why we would not want people like this having to go through a background check.
Which is why they won't pass it WITHOUT registration.Yes ... it would be hard to show if you didn't do the background check without registration...
In what "Fringe" type alternate universe do you think THAT'S going to happen?So to my mind, they represent a point of argument we could yield IF we can get something meaningful in return. Like terminating the BATFE with extreme prejudice and replacing it with a licensing agency that does no enforcement at all.
If "we" would get off out butts and work for better government, "we'd" have better government. Too many of "us" are couch potato citizens -- "we" lie on the couch, drink beer and eat chips and cheer for the team or candidate of our choice, but do nothing "ourselves" to move the ball down the field."We" get the government "We" deserve? Bull.
"We" get saddled with the government the idiot majority is told to vote for. The rest of us are left in the cold, no matter how much feeling and logic we put into our own votes.
