Firearms Trainer Rob Pincus Endorses Expanded Background Checks<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, when it comes to expanding the system to criminalize <em>all<\/em> private transfers, the devil is in the details. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many Americans, for example, strongly oppose universal background checks if they&#8217;re forced to go to an FFL and pay a transfer fee every time they went to lend or sell a firearm to a friend, neighbor, or extended family member.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many Americans see this process as not only chilling a fundamental right but taxing it as well.&nbsp; One can argue it\u2019s tantamount to a poll tax on one\u2019s right to keep and bear arms. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, many Americans strongly oppose universal background checks if they lead to the establishment of a federal gun registry, which is, as the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/useful-idiot-firearms-trainer-rob-pincus-endorses-expanded-background-checks\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"new-everytown-ad-these-cops-gun-owners-support-background-checks-you-should-too\" title=\"New Everytown Ad: These Cops, Gun Owners Support Background Checks \u2014 You Should Too!\"> Obama administration has stated<\/a>, the only way to ensure compliance. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other words, universal background checks will not be the least bit effective if the government cannot track the location of every firearm in civilian hands.\u00a0 And even then, there will be a huge gap in the data as criminals will never register their black market firearms into the system.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Everyone agrees that criminals shouldn\u2019t have guns. But there\u2019s little evidence to suggest that enacting universal background checks will stop bad guys from getting guns.\u00a0 What they will do, for certain, is burden law-abiding citizens and bring us one step closer to universal registration.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many lawmakers on Capitol Hill recognize this, hence their reluctance to vote for expanded background check legislation.  Doubtful these new ads will change their minds.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-31ddfd76-f231-4a77-91bf-8d8619150e4e\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/\" campaign=\"BuySellGA_Register\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">Buy and Sell on GunsAmerica!<\/a><\/strong><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cThese ads are a reminder that background checks aren\u2019t a partisan issue, and that the vast majority of Americans support common sense steps to keep guns away from dangerous people,\u201d said John Feinblatt, president of Everytown for Gun Safety. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":34,"featured_media":146123,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_specdata_upc":"","_specdata_placement":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[244,240,1],"tags":[132,469,607],"featured":[],"hunt365":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-146122","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-2nd-amendment-r2kba","8":"category-this-week","9":"category-uncategorized","10":"tag-buzz","11":"tag-gun-control","12":"tag-news"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.1 (Yoast SEO v27.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>New Everytown Ad: These Cops, Gun Owners Support Background Checks \u2014 You Should Too!<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Everytown for Gun Safety hopes that its latest ads will spur Congress to criminalize private transfers and sales.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/new-everytown-ad-these-cops-gun-owners-support-background-checks-you-should-too\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"New Everytown Ad: These Cops, Gun Owners Support Background Checks \u2014 You Should Too!\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"\u201cThese ads are a reminder that background checks aren\u2019t a partisan issue, and that the vast majority of Americans support common sense steps to keep guns away from dangerous people,\u201d said John Feinblatt, president of Everytown for Gun Safety.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/new-everytown-ad-these-cops-gun-owners-support-background-checks-you-should-too\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Gun Reviews and News | GunsAmerica.com\/Digest\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/gunsamerica\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2021-06-02T15:37:10+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2023-09-07T12:43:05+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Screen-Shot-2021-06-02-at-10.30.21-AM.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1388\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"842\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"S.H.
