Sussman was talking about this on my way to work this morning and I almost called him about it.

Have you ever asked "Why doesn't Oakland track down where these guns came from?" Well the answer may surprise you; they have. It takes about an hour through the California Department of Justice. Yes it's that easy. You see most of the handguns used in Oakland were purchased legally. This was brought to their attention a year or two ago and they decided to do nothing about it. They are straw purchases made by girlfriends. The Oakland official who was informed of this declared that they will ignore it because they do not want any "baby momma drama." So they know that no action will be taken and more and more baby mommas buy guns for the baby daddy. The Federal prosecutor and BATFE are cooperating with Oakland on not cracking down on it.

The dark side of the civil rights movement was its violence, and I am talking not just about the Black Panthers but about the “peaceful resistance” crowd. This was a revolutionary movement, and like all such movements, it persuades its participants of the injustice of all resistance to their cause, or any custom that impedes their progressive toward their goal: which is not such much freedom as power. So, really, everything about the dominant white culture had to be devalued, and every institution discredited. This included the family. The destruction of the black family is a consequence of the political freedom achieved by the civil rights movement, for even though it was rooted in the church, it soon latched onto the most anarchic strands in American life, including radical feminism.

The Baby Mamma as straw buyer has deep roots; remembering the very nice old lady I encountered while she was being denied services by a gunsmith while her teen aged thug grandson stood by expecting his .38SW Lemon Squeezer to be repaired.
