The process for the proposed gun law that will allow more extensive background checks as well as more extreme penalties for gun trafficking has begun. One of the obstacles that was in the way, was the vote for lawmakers to debate on the issue. The vote for said debate took place today and won in a vote of 68-31. GOP senators who opposes the bill made an attempt to slow the process down, however Democrats and Republicans were able to get pass that. The next step is a vote on amendments, which would mostly effect universal background checks. “The plan would expand checks to gun-show and Internet sales, but exempt certain personal transactions.” I need to hear the voting on this. I mean, it’s not just ‘official’ gun permit holders who need this background check. The personal transactions need to be modified as well. Both side do have great arguments, but it’s still a SHAME.
