George Will wrote an article about this case today in the WaPo. He was as full of [expletive] as ever. Turns out the judge’s directed verdict in favor of the defendant happened a few hours after Will’s BS op-ed was published. What a maroon!
And no the case was not dismissed on a technicality. Turns out that when you buy a gun at a gun store, you swear under penalty of perjury that you are not a “straw-man” buyer for someone else. Every person he sold to was legally able to buy a gun under the law. If they lied when they signed form 4473, it ain’t the dealer’s fault. Same as not being liable for what happens when you sell a car to a person who turns out to be a drunk driver.

George Will dines with Obama. Need we say more?
Good to see at least some measure of justice came out of this case.
