(52,152 posts)to people they knew damn well were selling those guns in places they weren't legal to be sold. There is no way these people thought people were coming to VA to collect rare saturday night specials. Conversely Colorado isn't doing anything of the sort, nor are the marijuana dispenseries. Since the state says where they can and can't be built, the state does deserve some of the credit for not having targeted neighboring states. The simple fact is the gun manufacturers made sure guns got to DC and Chicago and Baltimore and other places by deliberately making sure that neighboring jurisdictions sold them as irresponsibly as humanly possible . If any other companies conspired to do this we would be up in arms but since it is just guns and the dead are mostly just black and brown we don't give a rats ass.
