Those whack anti-gunners
Say Uncle ^ | 2/13/08 | Say Uncle

Posted on 02/13/2008 11:36:43 AM PST by Nick Thimmesch

Did you know that Josh Sugarmann, of the Violence Policy Center, has a Federal Firearms License? And that the business address is that of The Violence Policy Center? You do now.

Also, given the ATF’s recent crack down on FFLs, I wonder when the VPC’s last inspection was? And how many transfers they’ve done. If none, then that could mean they’re not a business and, per ATF, that is bad. If they have, they’re hypocrites.

Said FFL exempts them from the DC handgun ban, as well.

Can you fish on the Potomac with a FFL?

Do you have a link to the actual story instead of the comments?

Thanks

Try:

BTW: Did not see a Josh Sugarman listed anywhere at the VPC site, but it’s a shaky looking organization anyway.

Maybe they need a FFL in their heads because they fear, well, those whack gun nuts.

Your title and content do not match the link nor the source. Do you have a working link? If not, this should have been placed in “vanity” as a topic.

10-4 & understood: actually saw it on the aforementioned Extreme Mortman site, which is always reliable and a recognized DC site.

I sure hope this turns out to be real because Josh Sugarmann is the guy who argues that because gun ownership has diminished and gun owners are now a minority it is OK to restrict our rights.

Can you imagine that with any other group? - “its OK to do this to them because they are only a minority”

That said, I looked and couldn’t find a good source to support him having an FFL or being exempt from the gun ban he advocates.

Go here: BATFE FFLeZCheck
Fill in numbers 1 54 00725 as appropriate.

Then ask yourself: if the BATFE has hugely cracked down on non-businesses having FFLs (issued for active brick-and-mortar for-profit business only), why does the head of a politically motivated non-profit group have one?

I wonder what he would charge to do a transfer of a Class III gun for me?
