I was pointing out that there were already laws that would have prevented the CNN crew from legally purchasing the guns they bought and they still bought them. The thing that ****ed Richard off was when I pointed out that they had to drive over 600 miles, visit 5 gun shows just to find 3 illegal sellers. If you know anything about TV at all you know they had hours of footage of people following the law that ended up on the cutting room floor to get the "70 seconds" they used. Perfectly legal in "gun show loophole states" like Virginia for individuals to sell their regulated firearms to someone without an instant check. I ask again, why did CNN go to Tennessee, North Carolina and South Carolina then? Were they saying there are no gun shows in Georgia or are they not saying that those sellers wanted them to walk over to the instant check booth first? That is the problem with TV, you only see what the producer wants you to see. I don't know why they went there, and neither do you. The point is that you can buy firearms at gunshows without a background check. Period. You should not be able to buy or sell or gift a firearm without paperwork recording the giver, seller and buyer. If the seller is willing to break the law, what difference does it make? In this case the buyers and the sellers were breaking a federal law. It would have been far more convincing if they just stayed in Georgia and the fact that they didn't makes it sound like maybe they were being asked more questions than they wanted for their show. After all it is just a TV show and not a whole lot different than the Kardashians or Honey Boo Boo. They shoot hours of tape to get a 12 minute segment. Private sellers can break the law with virtual immunity *because there is no requirement for a background check or registration of the purchased firearm*. Geeze ... Private sellers could break the law if there *was* a requirement for a background check or registration..." Geeezeeee Peet! But since there isn't such a law in Virginia... -- Just because you are opposed to abortion doesn’t make you pro-life. Your morality is deeply lacking if all you want is a child born but not a child fed, not a child educated, not a child housed, not a child clothed, not a child able to see the doctor. That’s not pro-life…that’s pro-birth. |

You're the one saying the law is broken all the time. What would another law do? OK, it would increase the size of the AFGE. Other than that - nothing. |
