The latest round of debate over gun control has got New York Times Magazine’s Ana Marie Cox feeling thoughtful:
Man, imagine if the right believed in unfettered access to the ballot box as much as they believed in the right to own guns.

Hmmm.
You’re kidding right?

She seems pretty serious.
I'm a gun owner who wants better, smarter gun control. RT if you are too.

Yeah, that “imagine” tweet isn’t exactly emblematic of “smarter” gun control. Or smarter anything, really. As a gun owner, Ana Marie should know better.

Need an ID to buy a gun

You do realize we have photo ID for gun purchases, right?

At least if you’re going through legal channels.
You might want to think about this a little. Voting and registration is much easier than buying a gun

I never had to go through a background check to vote only needed an ID.

So you would be fine with Voters having to undergo background checks, & show ID to vote?

True story.
"Unfettered"? To get a FOID card an ID & background check is required.
Man, imagine if libs actually knew what they were talking about.
