Ok you yanks are going to have to help me out on this one.....

In American law.....

If something is NOT against the law....can it still be illegal??


They say that thousands of guns are bought illegally due to the current law system??

HUH??

If it is NOT against the law....how can it be illegal??

As I'm sure you know from experience with the Canadian anti-gunners, socialists base their opinions on oxymorons.  This poll question is another good example.

In U.S., private transfers are legal between citizens, using no paperwork/NICS registration, as long as the gun is not a Class III.  So what the socialists are trying to say here is thanks to the current law system, people who are not allowed by law to purchase guns privately.  So, they are trying to say it is legal for convicts to illegally purchase guns privately  ([%|]).

(BTW, it only takes one vote. I tried three times out of curiosity and it still said 87.85%(8015). So that means that the numbers have not been falsely inflated by the "vote early, vote often" campaign...)

Here's a little tidbit from the "About us" button on their site:

WHO WE ARE

In 1948, Eleanor Roosevelt and her friends had an idea for an organization that would pool the resources of small contributors from across the country and spend those funds to help elect the most progressive candidates to the U.S. Senate and House.

They called it the National Committee for an Effective Congress.

Their method was simple:
Target key races.
Support the best and most electable candidates.
Select the contests where NCEC support could be decisive.


The idea worked, and today NCEC is a vital force in American Politics. NCEC supports progressive candidates who fight for the issues we believe in, like freedom of choice, separation of church and state, gun control, equal rights, and environmental protection.

Some names, like Feinstein and Kennedy, you may already know and support. But many NCEC candidates run campaigns with tight budgets and need every bit of help they can get to beat the Religious Right- dominated Republican Party.
