UNIVERSAL BACKGROUND CHECK: The REAL Meaning!

Published on February 20, 2013
Duration: 26:41

This video argues that Universal Background Checks (UBCs) are a misnomer, primarily serving as a mechanism to establish a national firearms registry, which could ultimately lead to confiscation. The speaker contends that existing systems like NICS and Form 4473 already cover legal gun purchases, and UBCs would primarily impact private sales, creating a paper trail and database of gun ownership. The core concern is that this registry is a stepping stone to more restrictive gun control measures and potential confiscation, rather than an effective tool to prevent criminals from acquiring firearms.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the primary argument against Universal Background Checks (UBCs) presented in the video?

The video argues that Universal Background Checks (UBCs) are not primarily about preventing criminals from getting guns, but rather a political maneuver to establish a national firearms registry, which is seen as a precursor to confiscation and further restrictions on gun ownership.

How does the video explain the 'gun show loophole'?

The video clarifies that the 'gun show loophole' refers to private, person-to-person firearm sales that do not involve a licensed dealer (FFL) and therefore do not require a federal background check through NICS, which proponents of UBCs aim to eliminate.

What are the predicted unintended consequences of Universal Background Checks?

The video predicts unintended consequences such as the potential for denial of gun rights based on medical history, the ending of private gun sales, and the creation of a national registry that facilitates confiscation, ultimately disarming law-abiding citizens.

What action does the video urge viewers to take regarding Universal Background Checks?

The video urges viewers to write letters to their senators and representatives to voice their opposition to Universal Background Checks, emphasizing the need to prevent the creation of a national firearms registry and potential confiscation.
