John, your side of the argument is well established. Enforcing existing
laws is certainly a step in the right direction but the
majority of the states don't have any laws to enforce.
If you only enforced the federal laws there would be plenty of jail
time for illegal gun buyers.
Most of the recent shooter they talk about on TV would still be able
to have the guns they used, even with all the things you suggest ...
or even what BAO suggests. It might just be a little more expensive
for them. Why do they care? They will be dead by the time the Visa
bill gets there.
I recall that your boys cut or restricted funding and therefore hiring
of workers by the ATF, which supposedly is the agency keeping tabs on
firearm sales. Has that been resolved? Basically, if there are laws,
your NRA'ers don't want them enforced, despite your chatter about them.
This has been going on for a long time:

Has there been a problem tracing these guns? CNN had more than we
needed to know about all of the guns the latest weasel had, including
one he traded in.
It was on the air in less than 24 hours so I assume the trace was
virtually instant.
Way back before GCA 68, the FBI had the trace back on Oswald's guns
within a day or two.
The fact is, cops simply have little interest in tracing crime guns
unless it is a big news story.
