NRA was pro-gun control when it came to Black Panthers

Yes, absolutely. That said, entering one's name into that secure database should be entirely voluntary and not the default option. Should be like voter registration in a way - your choice. Don't register, then you don't get to vote. Don't get into the database, then you don't get to acquire a firearm. Not opting in means that I cannot pass the required background check to acquire a firearm. Done.

Rapidly check? I'd rather a background and eligibility check takes a week or two - or a month even - than even one gun being sold or transferred to a person that shouldn't have one. I don't buy into the notion that a background check for a gun purchase must be done in 24 or 48 hours. What's the rush?

We might be able to reach a compromise.

I did some reading up on mass killings with no sane motive and it seems to be a post 60's movement, not sure what it's all about but I suspect as the body gets sicker, the symptoms will manifest them selves in many ways, if gun owners want to keep the rights of the 2nd, they are going to have to attack these mental cases getting access to guns. You can see the Left is not interested.... except where it will throw money at a gov't agency and solve nothing.
