Sure, so then if background checks worked...then problem would already be solved.

And if background checks are not useful for keeping weapons/ammo out of the hands of criminals, then what purpose does this bill serve?

Conservatives will view it as more overreach by the nanny state, and progressives with any critical thinking skills will see it for what it is, useless.

If guns were eliminated, or everybody suddenly started loving everybody else, the problem would be solved. I'd be happy with either.

Nonetheless, New York already requires background checks for ammo purposes.
