The devil is in the detail but, this is a perfect example of where the Hearing protection Act can come into play. GOP leadership in the House should announce that they are of course supportive of "common sense gun laws" and constantly work to find "common ground" on issues of such importance, so they are perfectly willing to consider "compromise" and possibly support the UBC legislation, provided the Hearing Protection Act is included as a combined bill.
When Dems reject this "compromise", the message is that Democrats reject common sense gun laws, reject common ground solutions, and simply cannot compromise.
I agree with this method. While it'd be nice to dig in our heels and say "no more", that's not going to accomplish anything and our rights will continue to erode. We might as well get something in return for our troubles, and this method puts the spotlight back on the Democrats.
Along with the Hearing Protection Act, the UBC should be able to be performed my anyone by phone or by using an app, any time, any place. FFL's shouldn't be required. Oh yeah, and no record of the background check should be kept.
