Here's a simple read supported by some ideologue representing the "Gifford's Group" for gun control who tells a bald faced lie about 1/3 the way into the video. He tells the host that there is NO federal law requiring background checks. What the heck does he think the NICS is? TIP: He knows dang well what it is but like other ideologues, he's not above telling a good lie if it'll help his agenda.
What he's trying to spin is that there are some states who require nothing other/more than the NICS check when he wants further requirements. He wants 'universal' checks for all gun sales/purchases (this would include even you gifting a gun to your son or dad, or dad gifting one to you, etc, etc). He's spouting the 'Gun show' loophole (which doesn't exist), and the N Caroline loophole (which also doesn't exist) as a need for this stupidity. It's typical gun control advocacy BS at it's best or worst... (your call)... trying to use the increased numbers of violent crimes involving the use of a guns during the past year on the lack of total background checks.

Advocacy group releases report on U.S. gun trafficking and spike in gun violence
A new report by Everytown for Gun Safety suggests more than 80% of trafficked guns in the U.S. came from states without background checks. The organization said the findings underscore the need for the Senate to pass legislation to close the loophole on federal background checks. Nick Suplina...
