The right to bear arms is enshrined in the US Constitution.

This means all lawful residents are allowed to buy and own a gun.

But federal law sets out a few exceptions.

Fugitives,

people with criminal convictions,

those considered a danger to society

or who were involuntarily committed to a mental institution

are all excluded.

The federal minimum age to buy a so-called long gun,

a rifle or shotgun is 18,

21 for handguns and semi-automatic weapons.

Permit requirements to purchase, own or carry firearms then vary,

depending on the state.

The permit is needed to buy handguns in a total of twelve states.

Only four have similar requirements for long guns.

In the rest of the country,

anyone meeting the federal criteria can buy firearms without a permit.

Seven states completely prohibit openly carrying handgunsn

while concealed handgun carry is illegal in only two.

A total of 31 states meanwhile allow

residents to openly carry handguns without a permit.

Guns salesmen must alert local officials

and obtain a federal firearms license.

Federal law then requires licensed vendors

to run a background check before selling firearms,

but the rule can be circumvented

as it doesn't apply to non licensed vendors

Anyone can legally sell a gun without a federal license,

if the sale isn't considered a regular business activity.

This applies for instance to someone selling firearms

from their personal collection.

Gun shows are known for facilitating these transactions,

which can be conducted without the need for a background check.

Unlicensed sales currently represents twenty percent

of all gun purchases in the US.

Tributes from ex-presidents to world leaders pour in for late U.S. Senator John McCain - Duration: 1:28.

Tributes have been flooding in for late U.S. Senator John McCain, who died over the weekend

after losing his battle with brain cancer.

Ro Aram has more.

Former presidents and politicians have been leading the tributes for the long-time Republican.

Ex-President Barack Obama, who beat McCain to the White House in 2008, issued a statement,

saying all should aspire to McCain's courage to put the greater good above our own.

Obama added that despite their differences, they shared a "fidelity to something higher."

George W. Bush described him as a man of deep conviction and a patriot of the highest order.

Jimmy Carter said Americans will be ever grateful for the Vietnam veteran's heroic military

service and for his steadfast integrity as a member of the U.S. Senate.

Fellow politicians and current President Donald Trump also expressed their condolences via

social media.

McCain was one of Trump's harshest critics throughout his campaign and presidency.

Tributes also came in from world leaders, including German Chancellor Angela Merkel,

British Prime Minister Theresa May and French President Emmanuel Macron.

Barack Obama and George W. Bush are expected to give eulogies at a funeral at Washington

National Cathedral.

McCain's family is reported to have said they do not want President Trump to attend.

Vice President Mike Pence is expected to represent the White House instead.

S. Korea, U.S. yet to reach new deal on defense cost sharing - Duration: 1:49.

Officials from Seoul and Washington met last week to continue discussions on splitting

defense bills.

But after two days of talks, the sixth round of their kind, it's clear, they're not able

to meet half-way.

For details let's turn to our Kan Hyeong-woo.

South Korea and the United States continued their talks late last week in Seoul... on

sharing defense costs.

It seems they're still trying to narrow down their differences, but at the same time, they

see eye to eye on the need to further improve their communication.

An official at South Korea's foreign ministry said Monday that the allies were unable to

reach an agreement on the key points,.

including how much South Korea should pay in total and Washington's demand that Seoul

pay for a new category of expenses called "operational support," which is for American

troops outside the Peninsula.

This "operational support" includes the deployment of aircraft carriers, long-range bombers and

nuclear submarines.

Under the latest five year deal, as of 2018, South Korea pays around 856 million U.S. dollars

to have U.S. troops on its soil, which experts say is around 40 to 50 percent of the total

bill.

But Seoul is standing firm that it can spend money in three areas, which are payroll, construction

and logistics,… as it has in the past.

The 2014 agreement on sharing the costs of America's defense of its ally will expire

by the end of this year.

So South Korea aims to conclude the talks with the U.S. before November as it is expected

to take at least two or three months to get the National Assembly's approval,… but the

Foreign Ministry official noted that the agreement terms are more important than simply meeting

the deadline.

Seoul and Washington plan to hold another round of talks in the U.S. next month.

Trump Threatens Tariffs On US Cars From Canada - Duration: 1:50.

Extremely complex bill, and it's

something that I think will be

talked about for many years to

come.

It's just good for both

countries.

As far as Canada is concerned,

we haven't started with Canada

yet.

We wanted to do Mexico and see

if that was possible to do, and

it wasn't.

I think it wasn't from my

standpoint something that most

people thought was even doable

when we started, if you look at

it.

You remember at the beginning

many people thought this was

something that just couldn't

happen because of all the

different factions and sides,

and the complexity.

And we made it much simpler,

much better, much better for

both countries.

Canada will start negotiations

shortly.

I'll be calling the prime

minister very soon, and we'll

start negotiations, and if

they'd like to negotiate fairly,

we'll do that.

You know, they have the tariffs

of almost 300% on some of our

dairy products.

We can't that.

I think with Canada, frankly,

the easiest thing we can do is

tariff their cars coming in.

It's a tremendous amount of

money and a simple negotiation

that could end in one day and

we've taken a lot of money the

following day, but I think we'll

give them a chance to probably

have a separate deal.

We could have a separate deal

that we could put it into this

deal.

I like to call this deal the

united states/mexico trade

I think it's an elegant game.

I think nafta has a lot of bad

connotations for the united

States.

Because it was a deal that was a

horrible deal for our country,

and I think it's got a lot of

bad connotations to a lot of

people, so we will probably, you

and I, agree to the name.

We'll see whether or not we

decide to put up Canada or just

do a separate deal with Canada
