This is a GREAT statement, onehandle, and deserves to be on bumper stickers, posters, flyers, and protest signs EVERYWHERE, if not also in the headlines.

"Shut Down All Gun Shows! They are breeding grounds for domestic terrorism."

Awful idea. CT requires background checks for private sales at gun shows but not yard sales Recursion Jan 2013 #16
