    Yea for sure not paying a traffic ticket should mean you are banned from buying a gun. Seems reasonable. Uh-huh

    agree. seems pretty f'ing idiotic to even think this would justify not passing a background check.

    If you don't pay a traffic ticket they issue a warrant for your arrest. It's not CBI's problem that it is "only" for a traffic ticket. It's still a WARRANT FOR ARREST.

    When someone has a warrant for their arrest they get pulled over by a cop they go to jail. do some research. Cops have been killed in traffic stops by guys that had traffic warrants and nothing more and didn't want to go to jail .

    Now I'm not saying that YOU or the original person that brought this up would shoot a cop. I'm just saying it is a reason to deny a purchase.
    Besides I'm sure as soon as he took care of the warrant they dropped the denial.

    you seem fine with denying someone gun purchase becasue they failed to pay a ticket and have a warrant for their arrest. I am not. I think it is retarded that you should be denied a gun purchase becasue you didn't pay a fee to the state for a traffic violation. You can go on about warrant for arrest all you want, but the base reason is a traffic violation

    Maybe, just maybe, stop issuing arrest warrants and sending people to jail becasue some bloke didn't hand over a hundred bucks or whatever to the state for a frikken traffic violation in a timely manner.

    Nah. That's crazy talk I know.

    What, then, would you recommend then to get people to pay for the traffic tickets, if not the threat of jail time? I mean, if you get a ticket and there is no recourse from the state if you don't pay, why pay? Don't you think the state needs something in place that will prompt people to pay the fine? Seems the threat of jail would do that pretty well.

    I'm Ok with CBI denying for a warrant.. it's not their problem what the warrant is for . Would you be OK if the warrant was for murder? or rape ? or ( insert laundry list of offenses here) ?

    We all sit here and scream about how we are responsible gun owners. well not taking care of your legal obligations is not being responsible.

    Hey I've had a couple of warrants for traffic.... I've also gone to jail on them ( this was back when I was young and dumb and thought my car had two speeds.. stop and top .... I was a bit of a lead foot)

    Get a ticket you have 3 options.... Pay it , Go to court to fight it ( win or lose) or ignore it and have a warrant for your arrest issued... they will catch you .. eventually . Arrest warrants for not showing up in court is the courts only recourse when you don't show up. this is how it works .. no matter the offense, It's " ALWAYS" been this way .

    What would you suggest they do when you don't show up in court ?

    Just like we all learned in elementary school if your parent(s) didn't already teach you... follow the rules and you can participate with all the others. Think the rules don't apply to you and you can do it the hard way. If you didn't learn it then I guess you'll have to learn it now.

    I personally don't know of any responsible people that don't pay their tickets and I like the idea that irresponsible people get held up by the background check.

    What you are fine with, and what you are not fine with, have nothing to do with it. It's what the system dictates. You can argue with the state, jump up and down & stomp your feet, scream your lungs out, but the state, in the end, will win. EVERY TIME.

    You should be embarassed by your actions and not blaming someone else for your problems. Man up and take some responsibility.
