Why expanding background checks would, in fact, reduce gun crime - The Washington Post

I am not a gun guy and don't know anything about owning a gun. I've fired a .22 when I was a kid and a 12 Guage once (and only once, ouch), and fired a pistol a few times at a shooting range. Forgive me if I confused clips with magazines. There is no need to insult me or call me ignorant. This is just a discussion after all.

My point is, is that maybe these terrible crimes could have been prevented if it was harder to get guns, ammo and magazines for them. Just maybe.
1: I'm not wrong about it. It's been proven time and time again that background checks create more problems and do not prevent crimes.

2: Which is exactly why your voice carries no weight on the topic.

3: Um....But none of these recent crimes have been committed by "High power assault rifles" so why are you even mentioning them?
