Ex-PH2 sends us a link to an NBC article<\/a> which states that the National Rifle Association won’t oppose the Chuckie Schumer bill that’s coming out of committee in regards to background checks. here’s a screen shot in case it gets edited later;<\/p>\n

\"NRA<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

Of course, their intention is to convince Republicans to back the bill without having to worry about backlash from voters (also known as NRA memebers);<\/p>\n

If that requirement is met and key Republican negotiator Sen. Tom Coburn of Oklahoma signs on, the powerful gun lobby has signaled to lawmakers that they would not actively oppose the bill — and not count votes in favor of it as part of its highly influential NRA lawmaker ratings — according to Senate aides familiar with the stalled negotiations.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The sticking point in negotiations between the parties is that Coburn wants records of the background checks between private buyers and sellers destroyed, but Democrats want the records maintained – a backdoor to registration. Why else would the records need to exist after the background checks cleared the buyer?<\/p>\n

Well, the NRA sends us a statement denying that they won’t oppose the legislation;<\/p>\n

The story posted on NBCNews.com alleges that NRA will not oppose expanding the background check system to include all private firearm sales, “provided the legislation does not require private gun sellers to maintain records of the checks”. This statement is completely untrue. The NRA opposes criminalizing private firearms transfers between law-abiding individuals, and therefore opposes an expansion of the background check system.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
