I don't understand what you're not understanding. It would punish the straw purchaser for selling to a criminal who used it in a crime. The straw is the owner of record. "His" gun is used in a crime. He's not about to squeal on his customer (the criminal who bought it from him), so he'll want to say it was stolen or lost. Then the cop says "Why didn't you report it stolen?

How do you feel about bans on ANY abortion?

1. Yeah, yeah. "Guns don't kill..." That's why there ARE laws about driving drunk.


2. And there are laws about driving, and car safety, medical mistakes, caps on pill bottles... And those deaths are virtually never deliberate. Deaths by weapons very often are. And I am concerned trying to prevent all kinds of accidental deaths and murders. Would you rather choose certain kinds of deaths to be concerned aboutm, and the heck with others?


But it's not reasonable to have controls on weapons?

Why is that question relevant? I never mentioned the 2nd amendment. I was talking about assault weapons. They're not mentioned in the 2nd.

C'mon. Don't overgeneralize. Mine isn't. I don't fear socialism, gun control, taxes, Muslims, candidates.

Sandy!! Good grief! Hello! It took me until now to recognize your name. How the heck are you?! My life in brief: I've been unemployed since the end of May, I've had a Prius for 2 years. Nothing else remarkable going on.

Knowingly selling a firearm to a prohibited individual is already a crime, a federal crime in fact.

It's a totally different subject, but I'll bite.

There already are laws and restrictions dealing with the purchase, possession, and use of firearms.
