Thomas Dixon on Gun Control

Close the gun show loophole and the Charleston Loophole

Gun Violence Prevention:
• Brady Background Checks need to be expanded to cover all gun sales regardless of where they occur and whom they are between. This means closing the "gun show loophole" that currently allows online and low volume sellers to sell guns legally without running a background check on the buyer.
• The "Charleston Loophole" must also be closed. This loophole allows people who have not passed background checks to obtain firearms after waiting only 3 days.

Supports restrictions on right to bear arms.
