@tofugolem@mastodon.social @zeri@chaos.social I strongly doubt that the majority of Republicans is in favor of banning any and all private gun sales (which is what the implementation of "universal background checks" does, as it forces all sales to go through a registered dealer, and these then always will take a cut for themselves).

If it were what it claims to be, it'd be implemented by requiring the private seller and buyer to go through an online background check... basically a website where personal details are entered, a background check is performed, and that spits out a yes or no.

And fun fact, that's precisely how the background check at a gun dealership already works. Just open up that thing to private sellers, and then it can be made mandatory for ALL sales...
