Why we will never accept Intergalactic Background Checks

It never fails, whenever there is a ‘serious crisis’ involving guns, the Socialist-Left wastes no time in trotting out their favourite hobby horse of Background Checks – Intergalactic and otherwise.

While lorries and other motorised vehicles can be deadly, they don’t serve as a constraint on tyranny so they are no concern of the Left. The plain fact is that firearms aren’t any different than other types of property. As it is with the government, the slippery slope will see them try to control other types of property if it can get people to accept it with firearms.
