...because, you know, it will stop the bad guys from getting guns!

As if background checks would have stopped these upstanding yoots from obtaining 26 handguns in one trip when they stole them from a gun store.

You have it all wrong.

They're going to go on the computer and register them online. NICS will run a background check then.

No worries.
