29. UBCs are a state issue.

It is questionable that the federal government can mandate them. My state has them - I think they are a good idea.

The problem with the gun control movement is they always bundle UBCs with gun bans. That is why they don't get passed. If they were to propose UBCs and leave it at that then they might pass.
