Well, well, well

Here's something that can be regulated and there's no 2nd Amendment restriction whatsoever:

A new report from UC Davis researchers finds that American gun shows are the leading source of guns used in crimes, not just in the United States, but Mexico and Canada as well.

The undercover study by UC Davis Violence Prevention Research Program is called "What Goes On When Everybody Thinks Nobody Is Looking". The report includes hundreds of hidden-camera photographs and video taken from 78 gun shows in 19 states.

The report shows the two-thirds of gun sales at gun shows are through licensed vendors. The others are sold through unlicensed vendors or private gun show attendees, who do not have to do background checks or file any paperwork. The study state that 85% of recovered crime guns have gone through at least one private party transaction following their initial sale by a licensed retailer.

Other than the NRA's patented spaz attack there's no Second Amendment problem in requiring paperwork and background checks at gun shows. And if this study is verified there's no way public safety won't trump any argument the NRA wants to make.

But, sadly, nobody will have the guts to do such a thing.
