does not matter if it will make a bit of difference in the outcomes.

It also pisses me off that they keep allowing the outright lies to be passed off as factual.

ALL weapons at gun shows are not sold without a background check, most are sold from dealers and do indeed require a background check.

ALL weapons sold over the internet are not sold without a background check. Any weapon that crosses state line must by federal law be sent to an FFL and background check performed.

Only weapons from private non-dealer transactions withing the same state may not require a background check as it is a state issue, some do require 100% background checks.

I am sure many controllers here fall for those lies and so do many misinformed people in general.

And do not get me started on the 40% number
