Please explain what you mean by stricter back ground check.

Self fulfilling prophecy. The gun lobby is so reluctant to bend, that the government, through voter approved legislature, will break it.

Great quote, by a British television writer. You're referring to how it applies to the NRA and gun manufactures, I assume. Couldn't agree with you more.

No I was referring to this part of your statement specifically:

that the government, through voter approved legislature

those which blissfully and unawaredly enslave themselves

Oh, I see. So if the majority of people want stricter gun laws, it's only be cause they're being manipulated. It's not because wanting something like that would make sense. Is that it?
