President Barack Obama of United States announced on Monday, January 5, 2016 that his government is taking executive action concerning background checks for gun buyers in order to close the gun control loophole. According to him, this move will enable background checks for all gun purchasers in the country mandatory. We also learnt that Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) will hire about two hundred and thirty (230) examiners who will process the background checks for all gun purchasers in the country, also emphasis is being put on background checks for the buyers of machine guns and sawed-off shotguns.
This is a welcomed news because according to our extensive study regarding gun purchases in the United States, there are so many unlicensed gun dealers and buyers in U.S and background checks were not conducted on these individuals. About 40% of gun sales did not pass through background checks in U.S according to research. Viewers Corner has written so many articles pleading with the government of Barack Obama to carry out reforms on gun control in the United States and we applaud President Barack Obama for this great moves he has taken because this will go a long way in saving the lives of the innocent American citizens who are being killed on daily basis by those lunatics who feel on top of the world when they have access to these deadly weapons.
