Sprague's Sports in Yuma

Given Yuma's proximity to the border, the maturity of the business and its volume of sales, “probably the odds are that some guns are making it into Mexico,” he said. “Unfortunately, some people do break the law once they leave our store.”

That's something he has no control over.
Well, of course they have no control over it as long as they continue to turn a blind eye to obviously suspicious purchasers.

But, we can't expect gun dealers to do the right thing, since many of them are uninterested in nothing other than making a buck. Legitimate gun owners should be the first ones complaining because the only other answer is this

Any gun purchaser must be licensed and each weapon bought must be registered to him.

The registration document and firearm must be presented to the local police after three months from purchase and each year thereafter in order to receive a stamp allowing continuance of the legal registration.
What's your opinion? Please leave a comment.

  1. That seems like a lot of draconian nonsense just to help enforce the laws of a corrupt, third world country where the government ignores the law as much as the drug dealers do.

  2. Straw purchasers should be put in front of a Military firing squad.

    End of story.

  3. So you suggest that the military should partake in the senseless gun violence in order to stop sensless gun violence? But in another post you argued the clerk that wrestled a gun away from a would be robber and shot him was senslessly partaking in gun violence... so only government sanctioned gun violence is ok with you?

  4. "Straw purchasers should be put in front of a Military firing squad. "

    Why are libtards so violent?

    Now BanBoy wants the new Brady poster child, Colin Goddard, shot.

    You need fucking help.

  5. Mike, your anti-straw-purchase scheme has the obvious “girlfriend loophole”. Since it is repeatedly talked about that friends, family members, or significant others, buy guns for convicted felons- what is to stop them from handling all your re-registration requirements?

  6. I will never register my guns. Ever. Period.

  7. Colin: Then I will happily relieve you of your firearms. Period.

  8. FatWhiteMan: Jokes on you. I'm a proud registered Republican.

    And yes, ultimately, only the Military should have guns.

    What difference what silly political club you associate yourself if you don't support the platform?

    Why does the military need guns in your perfect world of sheep where gun control works and everyone frolics with rainbow-farting unicorns?

  11. FatWhiteMan: You started the silly name calling schtick with the condescending term *Libtard*, which ultimately, reveals you're typical hater side as a gundork, automatically assuming that those who don't support your silly and childish notions, are Leftist/Dem's/Prog's/Lib's, but I digress, in the end I am not aware that guntardiness is part of the Republican platform. A quick google will result with links to common sense strongly supported by Republicans. Maybe your fingers are too fat to work the keyboard?

    The Military is highly skilled and trained in firearms, and they do not run around on bases, or in public waiving their guns thinking they're John Wayne and the Calvary trying to save the day, nor are they a bunch of trigger happy rent a mall cop slingin' lead at a school!

  12. Well that puts to rest any notion that BantheNRA is a Jadegold sockpuppet. Even Jade can't lie about being a proud member of the GOP. Or maybe he is cleaning the vomit out of his keyboard.

  13. Guy: You and the rest of your friends in the Brady Bunch are more than welcome to come by my house and politely ask me to disarm. I doubt that will work out very well for you, but you can always try.

    Besides, universal licensing and registration is just a pipe dream for you guys anyway. You have neither the public support, the hard-core voting block, nor the money. Without any of those ingredients, gun control proposals are just mental masturbation for all you progressives.

  14. Heh, I hardly invented the term "libtard". Believe me, libtards have been around the internets for quite a while.

    Banboy has to be a Jade sock-puppet. HAS TO! Because the only alternative would be that there is a bigger, nastier troll out there than Jade.

  15. BantheNRA is in good company since Justice Stevens was appointed by a republican!

    And Jim Brady was a Republican (a former Assistant to the President and White House Press Secretary under U.S. President Ronald Reagan). Credentials like that hardly make Brady a libtard!

    BantheNRA--what happened to the Republican party?

    Of course, for FWM gun control doesn't work, so we need to abolish gun control all together.

    And he thinks THAT makes sense?????

  16. Colin, Today's "pipe dream" is tomorrow's law. Enjoy the ascendency of your destructive and foolish policies while you can. Sooner or later the country will wake up.

    You see, BantheNRA is exactly right. Many Republicans and many gun owners for that matter, believe in what we do. You guys, you gun-rights guys, are a small, very vocal and very well funded minority, nothing more.

  17. FatWhiteMan:

    I forgot to mention, Colin Goddard has not been convicted of straw purchasing, so why would I call for him to be shot?

    ReplyDelete
  18. "well funded"?

    Where do I go to get these funds?

  19. "You guys, you gun-rights guys, are a small, very vocal and very well funded minority, nothing more."

    And that belief is why you fail and fail again. That and sock-puppetry anyway.

  20. Colin, if you make a video recording of Jadefool attempting to "disarm" you, you'd have a pay-per-view bonanza. That would be the best entertainment ever.

  21. TS asked where can he get the funds. You can't. As an insignificant cog in the pro-gun wheel you can't. Those funds are used to bribe and blackbùmail politicians into doing what they know is wrong. That's America at its very best.

    Zorro and Colin, aren't you guys embarrassed to talk that school-yard adolescent nonsense, you know that blustering, but underneath it all, impotent, tough-guy talk?

  22. Jadefool's Biggest (Only?) Cheerleader:

    Zorro and Colin, aren't you guys embarrassed to talk that school-yard adolescent nonsense, you know that blustering, but underneath it all, impotent, tough-guy talk?

    Bluster? Tough-guy talk? It was your idiot co-blogger who threatened Colin's forcible disarmament, and (hilariously) indicated that he would participate in it. Colin simply pointed out that he won't disarm. I indicated what comedic gold it would be to see Jadefool attempting to disarm anyone, as if he possesses even the extremely limited courage necessary to be a member of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, Explosives and Kitten Stomping (or, for that matter, Mayor MiKKKe Bloomberg's "No Guns for Negroes" enforcers).

    Of course, even if I'm misjudging Jadefool, and he is tough enough to be one of your heroes in the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, Explosives and Good Ol' Boy Roundups, he's obviously still not going to disarm the millions of American gun owners who would refuse to comply with a registration requirement, because the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, Explosives, and Wife Murdering lacks the manpower, the guts, the competence, and the firepower to do it, and I very much doubt that even their impressive level of stupidity is enough to overcome their cowardice, and prompt them to try.

  23. Excellent response, Zorro. I have nothing to add.

  24. Thanks, Colin.

    I see Jadefool and his Biggest (Only?) Cheerleader have scurried away from this discussion in headlong retreat. That, I reckon, is about as close to sagacity as those two are likely to get.

    They are a never-ending source of mirth. Truly the gift that keeps on giving.

  25. Sorry, I didn't mean to scurry away. I read your comment last week, the one Colin liked so much and when I got to that old 1994 kitten stomping thing I figured we were done here.

    There are always other fish to fry in the newer posts.
