“I illustrated numerous times that background checks and gun registries are mandatory”
You didnt illustrate it once , and it is demonstrably false. Look up the (poorly named) “gunshow loophole”
as for registries:
A national registry is actually illegal see 18 U.S.C. § 926(a)
and I quote :”No such rule or regulation prescribed after the date of the enactment of the Firearms Owners’ Protection Act may require that records required to be maintained under this chapter or any portion of the contents of such records, be recorded at or transferred to a facility owned, managed, or controlled by the United States or any State or any political subdivision thereof, nor that any system of registration of firearms, firearms owners, or firearms transactions or dispositions be established”
and 28 C.F.R. § 25.9(b)(3)
“Limitation on use. The NICS, including the NICS Audit Log, may not be used by any Department, agency, officer, or employee of the United States to establish any system for the registration of firearms, firearm owners, or firearm transactions or dispositions, except with respect to persons prohibited from receiving a firearm by 18 U.S.C. 922(g) or (n) or by state law. The NICS Audit Log will be monitored and reviewed on a regular basis to detect any possible misuse of NICS data.”
As for states, only Hawaii requires all guns to be registered (and DC), NY has registry for handguns only (and large caliber rifle) .
some states such as FLA, DE, GA, ID, PA, RI, SD and Vt, like in the Federal Govt registries are illega.
I’d be happy to cite all the above but out of mercy for the mods I’ll limit to PA since its the closest
from PA gen assembly title 18 .
Ҥ 6111.4. Registration of firearms.
Notwithstanding any section of this chapter to the contrary, nothing in this chapter shall be construed to allow any government or law enforcement agency or any agent thereof to create, maintain or operate any registry of firearm ownership within this Commonwealth. For the purposes of this section only, the term “firearm” shall include any weapon that is designed to or may readily be converted to expel any projectile by the action of an explosive or the frame or receiver of any such weapon.”l

Using your” logic” are only those (not you r”l) who have had a loved one shot in say, a school shooting allowed to have an opinion? So in order to avoid “irtue-signaling, righteous high-horse, brain-dead liberal mishugas” They would have to have been both attacked by masked intruders AND had a child shot in school THEN they could tell us which is more importtant. do I have this right?
