Kozachik: No more gun shows at Tucson Convention Center
Source: Arizona Daily Star (Tucson)
Gun shows could be a thing of the past at the Tucson Convention Center if
Councilman Steve Kozachik gets his way.
Kozachik wants to prohibit gun shows on city-owned property until either
the state legislature or the U.S. Congress passes a bill requiring
background checks on all gun sales.
“Continuing to allow person-to-person gun sales without the requirement
of any background checks is a clear threat to the health and safety of
the community. If any place has a right to be sensitive about that,
Tucson does,” Kozachik said.
“It’s my belief, and I’m hearing it daily now, that we should take a leadership
position in saying “no” to gun shows on public property until the state or the
feds fix the clear gap in the law that allows people to buy weapons without
the seller having any knowledge of who they are or what their background is.”

... Dayam, I have to start a list of all the progress that is being made on all fronts in the U.S. these days. The Chief of Police up in Waterbury, CT did the same thing... at least he's not signing any event permits from gun shows until further notice. But this is Tucson, AZ! Yeah and double back flips! 
but think a lone city council member is a major sea change?
