Harry didn't limit purchases to the Internet. He said, "There are
other, non-legitimate ways to buy and sell firearms." Good example was
the hotly debated (here) CNN documentary whereby firearms were purchased
without even being asked for identification, let alone a background check.
Don't skip the part where EVERY ONE OF THOSE purchases was a federal
and state felony.
You might as well say we need a law against murder.
Not sure about them being a federal felony. Were the sellers officially
"dealers"? As I understand current federal laws, if
they are not dealers, a background check is not required. Correct me
if I am wrong please.
My understanding of his executive action is that *all* transactions
will require a background check, FFL dealer or casual seller.
As for the state laws, yes, I think I recall it mentioned that the
seller was supposed to verify the buyer's address to make sure he
was not from out of state. Only one of the sellers did so, IIRC.
