9news just did a piece from the firing line. They said the sales manager supports the bill for the state to charge $10 to preform a background check. "Its fairly reasonable if its costing the state money and someones buying an expensive thing already"

Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen."

Wow guess who's not walking into TFL ever again! Sorry Dave!
Keep Calm and Carry.
I am gonna be watching 9news at 9 when they are supposed to air the interview with firing line again... The reporter did mention that firing line agrees with some of the introduced bill without going into specific. This is mess up.
It was in the 6 o'clock segment. I was in cooking dinner and heard it the background. I went and rewinded the DVR. What I quoted is exactly what the reporter said. I searched the 9news websight but couldn't find the same video.

Progressive ideology, ideas so good they must be mandatory.
Your freedom to be you includes my freedom to be free from you.

That quote was taken out of context for starters. We welcome "friendly" news organizations in an effort to get our side out as much as possible. There is no special arrangement with anyone. Just wondering, where do people think the funding for CBI is going to come from- especially with the additional funding request being shut down a few weeks ago? Who is going to do all of the additional background checks if some kind of universal bgc law is enacted? Does anyone really think it will be free? Are all of you going to be satisfied with permanent 7 days and more wait times? Without funds coming from somewhere- it will be an endless backlog with no end in sight. Beyond that- do you realize that the gunshop will almost certainly have to take possession of the firearm from a private gun sale for the duration of the background check? So would you prefer background checks to continue at their current pace and likely get much worse, or perhaps go back to where they were last November and before? I'll hand over the sawbuck thanks, and happily.
