Just had a petitioner ask me to sign to require background checks on long guns in addition to hand guns. She explained that current law only requires local background checks for hand gun purchase but not long guns. She said the petition would require federal checks instead of local checks.
I read her petition and it was the standard language requiring all purchases thru dealers. Nothing about long arms or local checks. This was a state ferry waiting line.
She got lots of signatures from people who didn't read it.
