Gun nuts WANT felons and crazies to have guns. 90% of Americans, and the majority of gun owners, want universal background checks. The GOP doesn't care.
Quote:
Obama said the background-checks proposal did not include everything he wanted, but it represented "progress," "moderation" and "common sense." He chided the National Rifle Association (NRA) and its allies for falsely claiming it would create a "Big Brother"-type gun registry, even though the legislation would specifically outlaw such a thing.
"Instead of supporting this compromise, the gun lobby and its allies willfully lied about the bill," Obama said.
