Mr. Foucachon -

Would you support thorough background checks, thus verifying whether or not a person attempting to purchase a weapon has not used such "mind-altering drugs", or should we simply accept their word at point of purchase?

But first you must learn how to smile as you kill 
If you want to be like the folks on the hill."
