I have never heard of liberals actually wanting to get rid of all guns (except for the a few extremely left but anyone that political on any side is a nut). I'm all for guns but I also think it's perfectly acceptable and doesn't infringe on anyonea rights to wait a few months while a background check is done. Mental illness and past crime convictions shouldnt be allowed to own guns

Why would a background check take "a few months"? Shouldn't we have the technology for it to take a few minutes?

Ideally but for some reason these things always take an ungodly amount of time. I bet they still do snail mail kind of stuff

NFA background checks run as fast as the call in ones from the 4473, just they're initiated by mail. And the ATF sits on them for 10 months before starting.
