Though Trump is technically free to golf where he chooses, presidential candidates of the two major parties are not "just like any Americans".
Likewise, Biden very likely enjoys seemingly open beach activities at very selected locations in an easily controlled environment.
Though the use of other avenues is still a possibility, it does not automatically follow from the circumstances. Rather, it gets uhhhmmm..... complicated, very complicated
The records in question do exist, but they are not records of purchases per se. Rather, they are records of background checks- which, as you observed, also just so happen to contain detailed information on the gun being purchased.
Semantics aside, these records are only kept for:
A- Fire arms purchases made through licensed dealers.
B- Fire arms purchased in private transactions- if the particular State requires background checks for private transactions.
One more complication: Biden, via executive order, made background checks for most private transactions (those primarily done for financial reasons mandatory. But.... "primarily for financial reasons" is not defined and I bet very few people selling weapons via private transactions in my red state are following that regulation.
So, at the end of the day, I bet one can purchase fire arms via private transactions in Florida and North Carolina with out getting a background check.
I respectfully disagree...
an open beach stretching long swaths of yardage is not as easy to secure as an enclosed golf course is...
Though... I have NO problem with our president enjoying this activity...
As I have NO problem with our former vice-president golfing where he chooses....
Nor choosing his rallies/speeches as he sees fit...
It is an injustice to either of these gentlemen...
and an injustice to ALL Americans to have our freedoms of activities curtailed...
Are the teachers who were shot in the schools to blame for not quitting their "mission" of teaching during this tumultuos and dangerous time?
I think not.
