	Dan Whitfield on Gun Control

Disarming citizens unconstitutional, but check backgrounds

Disarming citizens and taking our guns goes against everything that America stands for and is unconstitutional. [But] a person can purchase a firearm without undergoing a background check and this needs to be fixed. We need to provide, enforce, and properly fund background checks in order to prevent the wrong people from being able to legally purchase firearms. I do not support bans on possession or transport of firearms. Source: 2020 Arkansas Senate campaign website DanWhitCongress.us , Jun 8, 2020

Disarming citizens against everything America stands for

Pro Second Amendment through Common Sense Legislation: Disarming citizens and taking our guns goes against everything that America stands for and further it is wrong for the Government to seize personal property. At the same time, I do believe we need to close some loopholes in our gun laws and that is why I support HR 8.

We need to provide, enforce, and properly fund background checks in order to prevent the wrong people from being able to legally purchase firearms.
