Don't feel like you have even a slight responsibility to vet the buyer, huh?

Nope, not my problem anymore.

This is just one more reason to put (keep) this dumbfuck on the ignore list. I only saw his dumbfuck remark because you quoted the dumbfuck.

The only reason you would put me on your ignore list would be that you think you're an alpha male, and you don't want to listen to anyone that disagrees with you, and especially anyone that can make you feel dumb and bad about yourself.

But guess what? That makes you a beta male.

My points of view may not be flawless (we all think our points of view are flawless, but I recognize that other people have different ideas), but my logic in arguing them is very good. I make good points to back up everything I say. If you can't stand to hear different points of view, with good points to back them up, that makes me a dumb fuck?

This place is a debate, not an echo chamber. Seems like you want an echo chamber.

1. beta male
An unremarkable, careful man who avoids risk and confrontation. Beta males lack the physical presence, charisma and confidence of the Alpha male.

No, it's not and no, you don't. Having said that, I don't bother with ignore lists because even a broken clock is right twice a day ...

Isn't requiring background checks to purchase a firearm an admission by the government that they are failing at keeping known, dangerous people off of the streets? There shouldn't be anyone on the streets that we should be worried about owning a firearm.

Why the fuck are there people out there, that the government already knows about, that I need to be worried about getting their hands on a firearm?

ETA: not only is the government failing at keeping these people off the streets, they are intentionally putting them there by releasing them. I don't get it.

Ignoring the rest of your post, this part doesn't hold water.

Why not?

If someone is too dangerous to be on the streets (but only if they can somehow get their hands on a gun, which they definitely can), then they shouldn't be on the streets. The only other option is that they're not too dangerous, even if they own a gun, in which case they should be allowed to own a gun.

of course there are dangerous people with no criminal history, but no background check will catch them, so nobody can.

You did a better job explaining your position this time. You should still feel an obligation to act responsibly toward society though.

If I sell a car to someone, I don't wonder how many dui's or speeding tickets they have. It's not my job to decide if they're too dangerous to own it.

I feel so much safer now. Thanks!........

Half the denials were for "other" reasons. I wonder what those are.
