How do you know a citizen is law-abiding if you don't run a background check?

BTW, I thought you were going camping).:wink:
I was supposed to but we decided to put it off until the weekend after next
Instead I'm going to sit here and create threads about common anti-gun arguments so we have them on file for people to study
Not my job, I'm not a cop.

And AFAIK, Oregon does not require you to.
Haven't you learned that arguing the Anti's arguments is a loosing proposition? (As in "He who frames the debate wins the argument")
JMHO, (and I know you and I disagree on this point ) the proper response to an Anti that ask you that question is to wish them a joys act of self fornication. I don't suffer kindly, fools.

<--Laughing with you, not at you.
Not my job, I'm not a cop. I don't need to do it when I sell a car to someone, and they are used to kill many more people than guns are.

Correct, current law does require private sales to include a background check. Federal law (Title 18, Chapter 44, Section 922(a)(5) prohibits private sellers from selling firearms to individuals who you know or have reasonable cause to know does not reside in the same State. Also prohibited is the selling of firearms to people you know or have reasonable cause to know are disqualified from buying a firearm (Title 18, Chapter 44, Section 922(d).
I do NOT want to argue or engage in a debate. However, responsible gun owners should be aware who they are selling firearms to. You don't need to call OSP for a background check. Just ask a few questions.
I suggest a bill of sale be executed also. It saved my butt one time. I bought a pistol from a gal and then she reported it stolen. Once I showed the police the bill of sale with her signature on it the problem became her's. I believe she ended up defending an insurance fraud case.

I'm 99.9% positive he meant to include a 'not' in there. If he really didn't know that he would have learned it from the post he quoted
