Re: The Senate has defeated a compromise proposal to expand background checks on fire
No one is saying that the Constitution REQUIRES background checks....but there is nothing in the Constitution that prohibits them. Certainly not the second Amendment. No RIGHT is absolute. The Constitution ONLY requires that any infringement on a right has to be supported by a compelling governmental interest.
Background checks were never required in the Constitution!!!
