Did anyone watch Extreme Smuggling on Discovery last night? It was all about the gun trade and how straw buyers bring guns to criminals...Straw buyers were portrayed as "ordinary" people, of course...It made it out to be that the southeast was supplying all of the guns to MA and NY, illegally.
Also, apparently in a few states, you can set up booths at gun shows and sell weapons with no background checks. They found two people in those states at gun shows saying that they didn't care what your background was and so, they played it up like every gun show was a free-for-all.
Even my wife was pissed and, she's not a "gun nut," like I am!
