The story I saw claimed he bought the guns on Craigslist, but Craigslist doesnât allow the sale of guns or ammo. So that doesnât add up.

Also interesting, is that Bullseye is only a target range now. They used to sell guns, but to the best of my knowledge, they stopped well before 2013âŚ

I think, technically, it is a pride of meth smokers.

A rush of meth smokers? A bowl of potheads? A gouch of junkies? This is fun.
Really anythingâs better than bankers. I donât own any guns, but I sure do have to say that me and mine have been fucked over a lot more by bankers than gun owners.

Iâm kind of annoyed they linked the guns to the âwhite supremacist materials.â Iâm no fan of neo-nazis, but I believe itâs still legal to think loathsome thoughts. In my book, a liberal Democrat with a shitload of guns is no better than a Fascist with a shitload of guns. Itâs the guns, stupid.
Nation of drinkers, hands down. I own a gun, but am generally embarrassed by that fact, given what a completely unhinged freak show the online gun community is. The only human Iâd ever aim the gun at would be a banker. I donât drink, but Iâd take it up to get rid of the gun nuts and bankers.

I just told my shotgun to kill someone. It seems loathe to do anything other than sit there in the locker.
Itâs the person, stupid.

sure wish there was a way to prosecute these online gun resellers, who are no doubt doing a booming business arming anyone who could possibly want a gun for any reason⌠something that would establish a chain of culpability wherein sellers would be forced to verify that the people buying their shitloads of flipped guns arenât meth smoking felons.
too bad no idea like that exists at all.

When will you liberals ever learn? The only way to stop a BAD meth-smoking white supremacist felon with a gun, is a GOOD meth-smoking white supremacist felon with a gun.

Not black market at all. The NRA fights to make sure private sales do not require a background check. But youâre right in thinking that that loophole should be closed

the nra fights to make sure the ATF is kept hilariously toothless, as well. and it works. anyone who is going to argue that there should be less regulation and more enforcement would do well to do some research in that direction.

Thatâs one definition. Another is the one provided by the Federal Assault Weapons Ban: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Assault_Weapons_Ban#Criteria_of_an_assault_weapon
which may be idiotic and misguided, but it is a legitimate definition.
Youâre confusing âassault rifleâ and âassault weaponâ. Completely different things. For instance, an assault weapon is not necessarily a rifle. âAssault rifleâ is a technical, universally agreed upon definition (check out Wikipediaâs). âAssault weaponâ is a legal term which has different meanings depending on the laws referring to it - or defining it.

Ah, I did not notice that distinction. Thank you. I should have read the first sentence of the paragraph I linked to better 
Really? What about mandating that transfers go through an FFL, who is required to do a background check? That means that the seller, as well as the buyer, become culpable, whereas now, the seller can basically spin a yarn of BS (as occurred in this case) and have a pretty good chance walking. Technically, straw purchases are illegal, and technically there are limits on the number of private-party sales a person can make before ou is treated as a dealer and must be licensed. But practically, I donât think there are many who are brought up on such charges.
Incidentally, some kind of kudos are due to the seller for sticking to his line of BS and running the ATF off. âI bought this gun on an impulse, then I was short on money and needed to sell it. Then I bought this OTHER gun on an impulse, and suddenly needed money and sold it. To the same guy.â It doesnât in any way pass the smell test, but it also deftly avoids incriminating himself in any way.
because then weâd know who bought guns, limiting our second amendment right to buy a gun in 30 seconds, anonymously. plus, it would give fema and barack obama himself a list of people whose guns needs to be took.

Shoudnât it be a cloud of meth smokers, a bong of potheads, and a spoonful of junkies?
How about, a cluster of politicians? Or a lump of bureauocrats?

Your sarcasm lowers the tone of the conversation with little redeeming virtue. I was seriously responding to the question of how to keep guns away from prohibited persons without banning them entirely.
