In reply to the discussion: No charges for seller who sold gun to W.Va. killer [View all]mikeysnot
(4,756 posts)89. What do you live on this site? I just posted that.
The 20 year murder rate going down has nothing to do with guns or people having guns.... I see you peddling this BS on other threads it is just another of the logical fallacies you employ on a regular basis...

Well, they aren't going to open up NICS, so on that, we agree. It'll have to go through an FFL.

I fully realize that. So take your gun to FFL to record transfer. Is that too much to ask so-called

I realize the guy who sold the gun can't be charged, legally. Morally, it's another question.

All, or the majority? Of course not. But some do seem to be trying to compensate for something.
