This statement is pure B.S.:
“ The shooter in Georgia bought his firearm the day he is alleged to have carried out the attacks, according to police. There's no waiting period to buy a gun in Georgia, making it a much easier process than, say, registering to vote, which takes more time there.”
You don’t need a background check or any waiting period to register to vote in Georgia - or anywhere else - that I’m aware of. You need an ID and proof of residence (such as a utility bill or bank statement) and that’s it.
They also imply that internet sales can happen without a background check. As you all know, that’s false as well. Any internet sales must go through a FFL and a background check (or carry permit) is required before possession of the weapon can be taken.
CNN is probably right that none of the more extreme (possibly any) of these measures will be passed, but they - as usual - present a biased picture…
