"Not all gun dealers, of course, are reckless, but the ATF reports over half of all guns used in crimes are purchased from just 1 percent of gun dealers. Clearly, they don't deserve the protection these bills would provide."

Wouldn't that mean that half of the guns aren't bought from ANY gun dealers?

That would imply that half the crimes can be stopped by ::gasp:: going after criminals!

And all the while, no one would be preventing law-abiding citizens from getting guns either.

An armed society is a polite society.

An unarmed society is waiting for an overlord.

Can't the "rogue" 1% be dealt with as necessary under existing law ?
Can't dealers who break the law lose their licenses ?
Surely any new law such as this would not apply to a dealer who wasn't following the law ?
