Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Not so. According to the Federal Firearms Act (FFA), even as a private seller, you're still responsible for confirming the person you're selling to is legally eligible to own what you're selling them. In fact, there's even a number you can call to have the same background check done they do at gun stores, it just takes a lot longer to go through the process.
If that person is a felon, and if they get caught with that gun and if they trace it back to you, you'll be investigated for illegally selling guns to felons.
Some states don't even allow you to privately sell firearms; you're required to pay an FFL license holder to do the transfer or use the state police as an intermediary to transfer possession.
