I was watching several of Tom's videos and he mentioned in one that he is OK with background checks before purchasing at a local gun store to keep criminals from buying guns. Since buying my first gun a few months ago and reading posts, blogs, articles, etc. of other gun rights advocates since then, it seems most in the gun rights camp agree with Tom but they are opposed to background checks at gunshows. I am curious as to the reason why many agree with them at gun stores but not gun shows. Please do not take this as me challenging anyone's gun rights, it just seems odd to support the checks in one situation and not the other. I assume most people would be all (background checks at both stores and shows) or none (no background checks).
