traffic laws will eliminate speeding, running red lights or illegal parking.

I, for one, like traffic laws. They make the commute to work a lot less exciting. I don't need more excitement on the way to the grocery store. I'm good with traffic laws that aren't 100% affective.

I'm good with all the proposals in the OP. I've been background checked by everybody below AG Holder and the local animal control officer. I have to keep records of what i buy by source, serial number and disposition. Should i sell a gun i must have proof that the buyer is a resident of my state and has shown me proof of that. It isn't a hardship.

The argument that a regulation cannot be 100% affective is fallacious and not worthy of addressing.
