How does the Brady Bill affect the average citizen?

It shows that there is a need for some restrictions to make it hard for dangerous people to get weapons, and we can do that by having background checks. Even the other groups that generally are considered 'gun rights groups' agree that felons and people that are mentally ill and dangerous to themselves, and others, should not be getting weapons. That's what the Brady background check system does. We also look at the fact some guns are not appropriate for civilian use. 50-caliber sniper rifles are the sorts of things that could shoot down helicopters, can do an assassination attempt from a mile away; that's not something that civilians should be getting automatically. But right now in this country we have varying restrictions on guns and as a result we have one of the highest levels of violence in the whole world.
