If the guns were stolen, then they wouldn't belong to the seller anyway, so the implication is really false.

There are many ways to bypass a background check, which is why there shouldn't even be one. All the system does is retard the ability of decent people to buy guns.

Again, why are we criminalizing mere possession? Possession should not be a criminal act, the actual crime of violence with the weapon is what we should be pursuing.

You are seriously deluded if you think that every ex-con avoids possessing a gun. They are doing it in your very own neighborhood as you type and all with the current regulation there in california as strict as it is. In reality, the only ones the regulations affect are the law abiding people who wish to protect themselves.
To add to this thought, WHY should an ex-con, who has supposedly paid his debt to society, be denied the right to effectively defend his own life, home, and family?
