The facts about the 'gun show loophole' bs I've been hearing about all the time.
A tip of the hat to the CATO Institute.

the cato institute is one of the premiere republican thinktanks or that's what I remember hearing. as for this. they're responding to bogus figures with things like 2&3% and saying that only 2 police chiefs out of 50 consider it a "major" problem. rape isn't a "major" problem where I am because I'm in an affluent area. . . so of course that means all rape laws should be purged from the books.
is this the end all be all article on gun show problems? I give it credit for putting forward the straw buy problem, but it's an example of political spin. it's pretty subtle about how it's trying to discredit a democratic push against gun fucks
