Gun Sales: White House To Seek Expanded Background Checks
2015-12-11
[HOSTED.AP.ORG] President Barack Obama
I've now been in 57 states -- I think one left to go...
's advisers are finalizing a proposal that would expand background checks on gun sales without congressional approval.

White House adviser Valerie Jarrett
...reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown
... home of Al Capone, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel,...
political hack, now senior advisor to President B.O....

says the president has asked his team to complete a proposal and submit it for his review "in short order." She says the recommendations will include measures to expand background checks.

Jarrett spoke Wednesday night at a vigil for the victims of the Newtown shooting, according to a summary provided by the White House.

After the mass shooting in Roseburg, Oregon, Obama said his team was looking for ways to tighten gun laws without a vote in Congress. White House officials have said they're exploring closing the so-called "gun show loophole" that allows people to buy weapons at gun shows and online without a background check.

#7  Since when do facts and reality get in the way of the people wanting to enslave us by taking away our firearms.

#6  Most gun show organizers prohibit or strongly discourage parking lot sales as the parking lot salesmen did not pay the vendor fee. The vendors and the organizers therefore loose money. A lot of states also prohibit parking lot sales at gun shows. There is no loophole.

#5  The article, and presumably Jarrett, mentioned the Roseburg and Oregon shootings. There is no mention of the frequent shootings in Chicago, or the Muslim-inspired shootings such as Chattanooga, Ft. Hood, Garland, TX, and more recently San Bernadino. There are others too. I'm sure it was just an oversight (sarc). No mention of the Muslim-inspired bombings and attempted bombings as well. Or the ax and knife attacks and the Moore, OK beheading. So GGF Val as well as whomever wrote this piece of dreck.

#4  perhaps ValJar would subject herself to a background check. You know Zero waived that for her with the Secret Service

#3  Obama needs a background check. A very detailed one including polygraph like when I received my TS/SCI clearance.

#2  Mostguns sold without background checks happen in the 'hood', not the gun shows.

Most violent crime happens there [the hood] as well, but no one discusses it, or attempts to find solutions. Sharia zones anyone ?
