and then travel back to their own state hundreds of miles away and you blame the other states? Do you ever get tired of being wrong?

Proper gun control is lacking in many states and they seed into the gun flow pipeline. It could be easily stopped with no damage to the sacred 2A rights of law-abiding citizens.

and those "source states". Here is a question, why South Carolina? Vermont and New Hampshire have laxer gun laws and are closer. Either way, they did not buy them from pawn shops or FFLs for two reasons:
One was a convicted felon, likely the rest are too and would not have passed a background check. Of course, they most likely had New York IDs, so even if they had clean records, FFLs would not sell to them because that would violate the Gun Control Act. Of course, a private sale would also violate the Gun Control Act.

Lots of straw purchasers among the cousins down south.

did you call the ATF? Why the south? The average Floridian is from New York, Ohio, and Michigan. They are more likely to have relatives here.

... a criminal broke a law?

Have you told anyone about this? It's ground-breaking

I do believe there are some people out there who buy firearms and they have no criminal intent. If they lived in another state they'd be perfectly legal. However due to draconian state laws they choose to be able to protect their family rather than let the crime technicians be responsible for the post-mortem reports. Hidden criminals my ass, they're people who've had their civil rights stolen from them. ie: NYC and Chicago.

... bringing large sodas into New York

If the state of New York wishes to have laws against anything that in the rest of the country is legal, it is their responsibility to monitor traffic coming in. I am sick of these guys in DC, NY, and Chicago complaining that violation of their laws is the responsibility of the rest of the country. How about either they handle their own enforcement or they come into line with the rest of us.

come into alignment with them.

The USA or the country in which you live?

Why don't you participate in the discussion instead of being a tedious pain in the ass trying to disrupt?

Wait, I know, it's because your argument is shit and this is all you got.

Anger is never the answer.

The only way this is possible is if they were stealing the guns, eh?

Unfortunately anti-gun people are not interested in crime control they're interested in people control comrade.

of just mindlessly repeating tag lines you think are cool. They're not.

the over emphasis on "gun violence" instead of "violence" is one indicator. Another are rants about "guns should not be fashion accessories" but the issue of public safety never gets mentioned. Of course, there is the "defending yourself equals vigilantism".

Anti-gun people don't have the balls to confront criminals. Anti-gun people are more concerned with the rights of criminals than the victims. The anti-gun view of the world is narrow minded and narcissist. They pretend to be do-gooders but really the intent is cowardly and selfish.

Feel free to send the crybaby alert now, the action validates my assumptions and observations.

If proper gun control laws were in effect and it required that people be qualified to own guns we'd all be better off. Some of you would not qualify. That's not the same as criminalizing gun owners.

... how many names / countries have you posted from today?

So hes at least half right, isn't he?

The solutions have loop holes, oops another catch phrase.

I guess we could import micromanaging, fascist bureaucrats and form committees.

Do firearms sourced from NY ever show up in crimes in other states?

Pawn shops have to have an FFL and do NICS checks. Likely those were private sales from local newspapers. Private sales aren't allowed to use the NICS system.

I'm sure you think you'd get away with it too, if it wasn't for us meddling kids.

An ex-con, illegally transporting firearms across state lines?

Hopefully, this will be handled at the Federal level (with much stricter sentencing).

File multiple charges, and he'll never see the outside of a prison wall for the rest of his natural life.

The others... 21 years old, they'll be eligible for SS by the time they're released.

by definition advocating for its own interests?

I don't expect pro-vegan advocacy groups to support both vegan and conventional farming.

But apparently pro-2nd amendment groups have to be anti-2nd amendment or else they're being selfish.

that's why Canada, with it's vast largely open border with many gun happy states is this continents Somalia.

and possibly distribute supplies come spring.



But spring is a long ways away.

..the rest of the world will remain indifferent the human cost of Vermonts lax gun laws!

Those people termed 'gunrunners' are just undocumented FFLs.

Besides, they're only trying to make a living for their families.

Seriously- this is a lesson we already learned a LONG time ago with Prohibition: Make 'it' illegal, and a black market will appear for 'it.' What's the news story here? The only people hurt are the law abiding majority who remain defenseless.
